Selling a washing machine

People don’t always think about buying a new washing machine only when their previous “home assistant” breaks down. Quite often, housewives simply want to replace a properly functioning machine with a more modern and “stuffed” model, with new functions and capabilities. In this case, where should the old device go?

Today classified ad sites are extremely popular. Therefore, the ideal option is to sell the washing machine. This will pay off part of the cost of the new equipment, and free up space in the apartment, and interested people will even take out and take away the machine gun themselves. Let's figure out how to use the service.

First create an "account"

If you haven’t used the site’s services yet, don’t worry, the interface is easy to understand. To post a sale ad, you must register. To create a personal account, you will need a phone number, so keep your smartphone with you.

The algorithm of actions is as follows:

• Using any browser, access the site;
• click on the inscription “Post an ad”;
• in the upper right corner, find and click the “Login and Registration” button;
• in the form that opens below there will be a command “Register”, click there;
• enter a valid mobile phone number, click “Continue”;
• enter the activation code that will be sent via SMS in the appropriate field, click the “Confirm” button;
• in the window that opens, enter your name (this is what your profile will be called) and set a password to log into your personal account;
• click the "Register" button.

It is better to come up with a strong password consisting of Latin letters and numbers so that attackers cannot hack your profile.

The registration procedure takes 3 minutes, so you shouldn’t be afraid of it. After completing all the steps, you will create your account. Now the profile name will be displayed in the upper corner of the site; by hovering over it, you can familiarize yourself with all the capabilities of the server.

If you click on “Profile Settings”, you can provide additional information about yourself as a seller. For example, enter an email address, upload an avatar photo, select a region and city. After authorization, you can start submitting your ad.

We place an ad

Before listing your listing, you should take a few good pictures of the item. Therefore, remove everything unnecessary from the washing machine, wipe the body and glass of the hatch and pick up the camera. Photos must be of high quality and show the machine from the most favorable side. What would you like to photograph?

• Body front, back, top and sides.
• Separately – control panel.
• Nameplate (a plate that contains all the information about the machine: model name, serial number, year of manufacture).
• Stickers (if they are preserved), which provide information about the efficiency class of washing, spinning and energy consumption.

The next task is to set an adequate price for the machine. Objectively answer yourself what condition your “home assistant” is in, look at how much such a model costs in the store now. Be sure to study the ads of “competitors”, that is, people who sell washing machines with similar functionality. Based on all the information obtained, evaluate the machine.

If you need to sell an automatic washing machine urgently, set the price 15-20% below the average, then buyers will be found faster.

Now you can submit an advertisement for sale; to do this, you need to click the appropriate button. First you need to select a product category, in our case it is “For home and garden”, “Household appliances”. The system will prompt you to upload photos: for the “main” photo, it is advisable to choose the one where the washing machine is completely visible, and then you can upload detailed photos.

Next, you need to name your ad, for example, “LG ​​Washing Machine,” and select that it is used. Then enter a description of the product. Here it is better to tell potential buyers what condition the machine is in, how long it has been in operation. To clarify that the device washes and rinses clothes perfectly, there are no complaints about it, and the device is being sold due to moving.

The description indicates the capacity of the drum, the dimensions of the body, how much water and electricity the machine consumes. Describe some functional features of the machine - interesting washing programs, options and additions. Check to see if the item can be delivered or only picked up.

When you tell us in detail about the “home assistant” you are selling, click the “Continue” button. Indicate the price, address where you can view the product.

The ad is ready for posting. The server will check it within 30 minutes and post it to the feed. All you have to do is wait for calls from potential buyers.

The server also offers several packages for faster sale of goods. For example, by paying $7, you can increase the number of ad views by 5 times. The tariff includes raising the publication to the first place in the feed three times and placing it at the top of the search page for 7 days.
