Review summary

Users praise OfferUp for enabling successful buys and sales and for good deals when it works. The most common complaints are heavy ads and paywalls, frequent app bugs/instability, reduced or broken shipping features, low buyer activity and stale/fake listings, and restrictive listing limits or fees.

Pros

Works well for buying and selling — users report successful sales and good deals.
Simple, familiar marketplace experience; many long-time users liked the app’s original functionality.
When functioning, the app can be reliable for finding bargains and making money from listings.

Cons

Heavy ads and new paid features/paywalls (monthly charges, fees to post multiple items or vehicles).
App instability and bugs: crashes, won’t open, keyboard/messaging problems, and getting stuck in messages requiring reinstalls.
Shipping functionality reduced or unclear: loss of shipping indicator and complaints that shipping options/payments don’t work.
Low buyer engagement and stale or fake listings (items stay up for weeks/months; many Temu/fake posts reported).
Listing limits and restrictions that prevent posting freely (monthly max listings, paid tiers to post more).

2026-08-10	Ni*****	Used to work well for me, now it's a hit or miss. Kept trying to post an item, upwards of 6 times, different ways and the listing was removed every time because it apparently was in the wrong category. So I tried to post a Digital Piano under Musical instruments under digital piano/keyboard category and gave descriptions of the item, still didn't work. Even tried other categories. Will have to post on Facebook or other market apps that will actually work.

2026-08-09	ja*****	i had this app but they accused me of selling drugs. i asked for the evidence and refuse to show it. I met good people here but to accuse someone for something so false is so wrong. I paid so I can promote my stuff I should get my money back. update nothing was done just some one didn't like the price accused me and offer deleted me now I can't make one bc I'm banned do better offer actually investigate.

2026-08-09	Jo*****	Ads and sponsored results everywhere, even in messages now! No dates on listings and a lot of them are old. Prices are not displayed on search result thumbnails. You have to go into each item individually to see it. A lot of ads in search results. I bought something from a seller who shipped the item and I have no way of rating them! No way to just block someone you have to report them too!

2026-08-09	Ke*****	2026 edit. uninstalled again. ads and a forceful notification pop up that won't go away til you click on it. I tried. you guys suck. 2024 edit. Uninstalled due to pop up ads. Not only is this annoying, the ads are built so that you click on them no matter if you hit back or the x. Bad business, right there.
