How to use OfferUp to buy or sell anything

Hey everyone in this video, I wanted to show you how to use an app called to offer up to buy and sell anything. Now offer up is very similar to using eBay Craigslist, Facebook marketplace, let go. Those are some of the competitors, but I really like offer up is one of my favorites. The one I use the most is a Facebook marketplace and I have a different video about using that. If you want to check that out, I'm going to go ahead and press get here and download the offer up the app and I'll walk you through the process. So offer up is for selling items locally. So on Craigslist on Facebook marketplace, it works the same way. So it's going to ask for your zip code, go ahead and type that in and let me show you the app really quick. Let's focus on the buying part first. So on top here, you got pickups. So those are the things that are only available for pickup and on the right side, you have shipped. So those are the things that people could ship to you. So you could choose that when you sell something, is it available for pickup only or shipping only and then underneath that you could sort by newest, closest and so forth, and you could set the price minimum and maximum. So that's, what's going on, on top here on the bottom. You have your home, which is the page I'm on now next to it is your inbox. So when you get messages, they'll show up here, let's jump in all the way to the right.

This is your sign-in or log-in. So you have to sign in or login here to start making these transactions. So, let me go ahead and do that. I'm just going to go ahead and sign in with Facebook. You could also do it with your email or your Google accounts. Now I'm logged in here on the bottom here. I have to confirm my phone number.

I'm going to jump in and confirm my phone number. Next, you could join through you. That's the last step of the process to verify your identity. I'm going to skip that for now. So one more thing I wanted to show you on the profile. If you go to your profile here on the bottom, if you press invite on top and I'm going to leave my link on the bottom, so you could get $5 off, but you could give $5 and get $5 by just referring people with your link here.

So if you go ahead and click my link here. You could get $5 off and help me out and then you could share your only to invite other people is a really cool affiliate program that they have set up here next to the profile icon. There's the dollar sign. So here is your offer. So selling, buying, and so on are listed here.

I'll show you the buying process. Then we'll come back to selling. So back to the home icon and here, let's say we wanted to buy this phone. For example, I could just click that. I could scroll down. I could see the price. I could see the location I could see when it was posted and then on the bottom, I could go ahead and make an offer, or I could just press ask to ask a question and it's going to give you some options of predefined questions here, where you could type your own to make an offer.

You could go ahead and press that, and you can make your offer right over here. In this case, they're only accepting the full asking price. So it's not going to let you type in your offer. Let's look at something else here. If I want it to do a, for this, make an offer and as you could see in this case, you could edit your offer and make it anything you want.

So I'm going to go ahead and cancel out of here. Really. That's all there is to buying. So you decide pickup or shipping jumped between the two if you want to ship and you want it to buy this one. You could click it again. You could ask a question or you could make an offer just like that and it'll, you'll get the item now let's go ahead and sell something.

So I'm going to go to the dollar sign tab at the very bottom of the page. Let's go ahead and press that and I'm going to sell something. So I'm going to go ahead and post an item right here by clicking that and you could either use, take a photo, so using your phone's camera, or select the photo. So let me go in and select the photo here.

So I just chose four photos from my photo library of this brand new shoe here and you could just name it, name, brand model, and so forth. And I gave it a title I'm going to press next. So then on top here, you have to choose a category. So clothing issues are correct here. Next condition. So brand new never used all the way to very poor for parts and I'm going to write a little description. And then I'm going to press next and here you could either set your price to be from, or you could just type a price that could be negotiated here. I'm going to be negotiable in this case. I'm going to press next and go ahead and set a location. So I'm going to type in a zipcode here and I'm going to press next and that's all there is to it.

So you could share on a Facebook timeline since I logged in with Facebook. I'm not going to do that. Now I use the Facebook marketplace to share this same item. I'm going to go ahead and press posts. I'm going to enable push notifications.  just like that is online buyers could make me an offer right now. You could also click the self faster option and you could pay to promote it.

So there's a three-day free trial, or you could pay these promotional prices right underneath it. Again, it depends on what you're selling and when you're done, just go ahead and press done or you could share, or do another post grind on top of that. I'm going to say done here. Let me go back to the homepage here and one more thing I wanted to show you at the very top of the page. You see those four squares. If you press that, it's going to let your things by category. So if you were searching for cell phones, for example, is just going to look at that category and show you items under that category here. So again, you have pickup and shipping as your options, but that square tab is a category.

Popular near me is what is set to by default and on top of the home option again, on the buying side, you could also search for things. So where it says to offer up, you could just click that and search for iPhone, for example, or whatever you want it. It's going to give you some options. Let's say I wanted to buy an iPhone X.

I could go in and search for that and then I could browse through some of these as always. I could click one. I could read it, I could see the price. I could see where it's located. This one is going to be able to ship for $5 and I could just go ahead and jump in and make an offer. Even if I wanted to make an offer for $400, I could just do that.

I'd send that off. I'm going to cancel and since I already have something for sale, so if I go to the dollar sign, you see selling and buying, these are the things that I have, under my categories I could. Now, if I wanted to sell another thing, press the camera icon on the bottom. That's the one I haven't covered yet.

Go ahead and press the camera icon and he takes you to that selling page that we already went through. So taking a picture of selecting a picture, giving it a title, and so on. That's to post more items. So under the dollar sign, you will see all of them line up here and under the dollar sign, you could also change your payments and receipts.

If you click that, you see your account here, you could go ahead and add a credit card by default is set to Apple pay and on their transactions, you could see your payments transaction. If you have any, I don't have any at this time on this side. So between those options, I hope you found this video useful and you could use it to buy or sell anything online using offer up.
