Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I enter my location into the Item Title?
By entering your location into the Item Title it makes it easier for buyers to quickly assess whether the sale is viable for them. This increases the chance of a sale from buyers located in your area.
I don't want to sell by auction, I just want to sell at a fixed price. How do I do this?
This is the simplest way to advertise an item for sale on ConstructionResale. Just set the Auction Start Price to the same as the Buy Out price and the price of the item will be fixed. You may also want to enable buyers to send you an offer, below your asking price, for your consideration. To do this, check the Offer Range box and enter the range within which you will look at offers. (See the tutorial video above)
Why does the PayPal tick-box not activate when I am setting up a sale item?
This is because you have not set up the email address by which PayPal will be able to recognise your account.
To set this, at the bottom of the Members Area list on the left of your screen is a section called 'My Account'. Select 'Manage Account' and at the bottom of the page enter the email address by which you are known by PayPal. Save that and it will now tick for you.
Why should I accept ‘Offline’ payment by cheque or credit card when payments made through online payment engines are quicker?
It just ensures you are attractive to a larger buying audience. Many potential buyers could be large companies wishing to avoid long leadtime purchases for projects with imminent completion. Such companies do not usually have the ability to pay on-line or by card and would prefer to pay by cheque or BACS on receipt of your invoice.
Is it free to upload images for my sale items?
Yes. You can upload up to 4 images and at no cost.
