Not every listing is worth your time. Some are overpriced. Some are vague. And some just don’t feel right.
So how do you know when you’ve found a good deal on GoBuyIt?
Let’s break it down.
Start with the price
If something looks too cheap, pause for a second. It might be a great bargain — or it might be missing something important.
Compare the price with similar listings. Search for the same item and see what others are charging. If the price is lower but the condition is solid, you might be onto something.
Check the product details
A good deal usually comes with a good description.
Look for:
-
Clear photos
-
Honest condition (new, used, refurbished)
-
Specifics like brand, model, size, or features
-
Location of the item
If the listing is vague or missing key info, don’t be afraid to message the seller and ask.
Look at the seller’s profile
Click on the seller’s name to view their profile. Check if they’ve posted other products, received reviews, or responded to comments.
A seller with a complete profile and active listings is usually more reliable.
Read the reviews and comments
If the product has reviews, read them. If buyers are happy, that’s a good sign.
Comments can also reveal a lot. Sometimes other buyers ask questions that help you understand the product better.
Trust your gut
If something feels off — maybe the photos look fake, or the seller is avoiding questions — it’s okay to walk away.
There are plenty of listings on GoBuyIt. Don’t rush. The right deal will come.
Final tip
A good deal isn’t just about price. It’s about value. If the product is in great shape, the seller is responsive, and the price feels fair, go for it.
