Bought.app: buying and selling secondhand

Understand Bought before buying inventory

Bought’s official website presents secondhand goods and references items originally purchased through other shops and platforms. That is different from a promise that every supplier or type of stock is supported. Check the platform’s current terms, permitted goods, account options and delivery process directly.

Keep a record from purchase to resale

Record where you bought the item, what it cost, its condition and the details a future buyer will need. Keep the original receipt when available. Photograph the item as it is now rather than reusing a retailer’s image that may hide wear or alterations. Disclose missing accessories and faults, especially where a product listing originally described a new item.

Choose stock with a clear description

Supplier and vendor searches are only one way to find resale stock. Start with items you understand and can inspect, then compare the total costs of sourcing more. Ask any supplier for current inventory details, quantity and written order terms. A digital supplier list provides information; it does not transfer ownership of the goods or certify them.

Compare the complete sales process

Look at how you create a listing, receive payment, arrange delivery and resolve a problem before committing to a platform. Confirm its rules for repeated or business selling. Do not assume that the experience on Bought is identical to Vinted, eBay or Depop.
