Sold unwanted stuff, easy to use, but- – Close5 - Buy & Sell Stuff Locally Review

Easy to use, got immediate results, and I'm looking forward to (hopefully) selling more. Much preferred over other ways to sell as the transaction and communication are all quicker than other methods. The messaging system was perfect for communicating; no emails or texts, just everything in-app—my first buyer and I set up a time and (public) place to meet, met, and everything worked out well. I'm not so sure what everyone is missing from the app that they've mentioned in the other reviews, but this was fine for me. To address what others were saying: I had to use stock photos for some unopened items; when an item was taken down, I sent an email to the link provided, explained and the ad was put back up in full within hours. (They just have to make sure you're not promising something you don't have.) Yes, I think there are too many ads, but it is a free app, so we do need to be aware that the money has to come from somewhere if we are not paying money upfront. My issue with the ads is this: I think they should at least be approved. One ad at the end of the product photos for one of my items is about a shady/sketchy person, and I didn't really like that being attached to my item. Maybe just a bit of discretion?
