About this app

HOW APP COLLECTS DATA

Buyers
• No prior sign-up is needed to use the app for search, so it doesn't collect any user data when you use it solely for this purpose.
• To find out about a car via "contact seller form", app will ask for your name and email so your lead can be sent to the seller. Sharing your phone number with seller is optional.
• Your contact information is shared only with seller of car you're interested in, that's it, no with 3rd parties companies, we hate spam too.
• We don't collect data on your behavior or searches you perform, i.e. make, model, or location of car you're searching for.
• You can call/send a text msg to seller (if phone # available) so app won't collect any data from you.

Private Sellers
• To post your car for sale, app will ask your name/alias, email, phone # (optional), and zip code of car's location. Account's username is your email, and password is automatically generated.
• Your ad will be posted for an unlimited time. You're responsible to remove it once your car is sold.
• You can close your account via web or app at any time. Your data will be removed immediately.
• You can contact us via email or app to request removal of your ad(s) and account. It will take 24 hrs or less.

Dealerships
• To create a dealership account so you can post multiple cars for sale, app will collect business name, email, full address, website (optional), phone #, contact name, username, and password.
• Your personal data will not be shared with 3rd party companies.
• Your cars for sale will be live for an unlimited time. You're responsible to mark them as "sold".
• You can close your account at any time via app or web. Your data+ads will be removed within the next 24 hrs.

CAR SEEKERS, what you need to know before using the app

Let's set the right expectations from the start. Our app doesn't perform miracles, but we excel at helping you find budget-friendly used cars. If you're specifically seeking used cars in "like-new" condition, less than 2-3 years old, for less than $5K, we recommend exploring other options.

It's important to note that some vehicles may require additional maintenance, exhibit normal wear and tear, or have higher mileage.

BUYERS, READ THIS
• Avoid fraud by meeting in person with seller of car at the moment of paying for it. App doesn't offer any transaction or payment services.
• Never pay money for a car you haven't tested and inspected by yourself first.
• The best way to stay safe is to meet seller in a public place and make sure the transaction takes place locally and in cash.
• Don't trust sellers asking for money transfers or the use of electronic payment platforms.

Objective and constructive reviews are appreciated.

I really liked this app! The people complaining about dealers or it not being "cheap" prices are simply being over dramatic and have no idea the value of a vehicle apparently! Dealers are going to be on any app that sells cars, let's be real! Plus it helps those that are broke and may need financing! Plus Cheap doesn't mean a few hundred dollars for a car, cheap is exactly as the app states, prices between $1,000-$5,000! I found very simple to search and as well as post my car for sale! I really appreciated being able to include so many details about my car too. Many apps limit description space and you end up being msgd asking for small details that could've been included in the description, not with this one! However, I really wish more people either knew about or would actually use this app though! 🤔 I didn't find many new posts or vehicles I was interested in and unfortunately I didn't get 1 msg for the car I was selling 🙁. But that's no fault of the app, Overall great experience and app! 😊

Mrs. Tammy, THANK YOU so much for your review and being objective about it :):) We'd love some users understand the app in the same way you did, especially the part that app doesn't create the content or ads. Given that our market target is kind of narrow, it doesn't work for everyone, but we're doing as much as we can to make it more discoverable.

Terrible experience so far. I understand sometimes a person may forget about a post. But when your phone number is visible on the ad without a paywall and someone sends you a message you should answer. Also there are a bunch of fraudulent posters on this app. They post one price to be pictured along side the thumbnail pic. But then state a different price in the description.

We can't force sellers to reply to inquiries, sorry about it, app doesn't control their will. Did you try to contact them via phone call? That's the fastest and most reliable way to negotiate or find out about a car's availability. It'd be really helpful if you report to us those fraudulent ads or posters you caught, they'll be removed immediately.

App refuses no matter how many times or in what manner I try, it won't let me upload photos of anything I want to sell. Also won't let me exit the app, it tells me to "double tap" the app to exit & everytime it stays open. I have to close out the page just to get out of the App. Then there's my area, it won't let me search anything in my area, it doesn't even give me the option to type in my area. Sure there are nice & cheap automobiles here, but are they real or fake, who knows...

To upload pictures, app will ask for "two permission requests" first. Tap "YES" or accept them so it can access your phone and load them. When you close the app with "back button", app will ask "Are you sure you want to exit?", tap "YES" option to close it. To search on your area, just insert your ZIP CODE in the "zip code" field. Ads aren't fake.
