Safe selling
Last updated: July 2026
Market Tag Mate writes the listing — the sale itself is yours to handle. A few plain tips for doing it safely.
Meeting a buyer
- Meet in a busy public place in daylight when you can.
- Bring someone with you, and tell a friend where you'll be.
- Let buyers inspect the item, but keep your keys and documents on you.
Getting paid
- Prefer cash, or confirm an e-transfer has actually landed before handing anything over.
- Be wary of overpayment, "shipping agent," or pay-me-back scams.
- If a deal feels rushed or too good, slow down and walk away.
Be honest in the listing
Disclose known issues and the real condition. Honest listings sell faster and lead to fewer disputes.
The app's suggestions aren't guarantees
Any condition read or price range is an AI estimate to help you get started — not a valuation, inspection, or promise of what your item is worth. Check the details yourself and price against a couple of real local listings before you post.
