Easy to list & sell items. Easy to find what your looking for.

Do you actually need to pay to use this app to sell £29.99 seems to be alot when you get no interest

I wish there were more people using it and that i could use pics from my google pics with it but everything else is amazing. The app is super easy to use and i love the way it is set up to show you what is for sale in walking distance, but that you can change it to further away. Others are the oposite which is kinda lame cause if I forget to change it i unintentionly contact someone out of state. I really hope more people pick up on how easy this app is to use, and start using it here in Las Vegas.

Got a text message that seemed like a real person from an ad on gumtree, and I warily tried it out. Loading times are awful, app crashed a bunch, and not even useful for what I wanted to advertise. Should have stuck to the other reviews warning me. Shady and underhand business practice here just to get more downloads.

Very frustrating when you want to open the app as it won't open and then you can't press back it won't let you so you have to close it from the middle/home button..you have to try at least 10 times before it will open it's very temperamental..not the best selling app I've experienced!!

Got approached through my gumtree advert, thought it was worth a shot, but will be uninstalling after a day. Can't see who is interested in items for sale unless you pay extra for 'chat', and takes round in circles with 'to continue you need to log into google play store' messages. Good idea, but too many unthought out issues at the moment to be of any use.

Developer has the very shady method of harvesting people's numbers from Gumtree and using them to advertise this app, which is against their policies. Leaves a very bad taste on an app that already looks unintuitive and seems to have a lot of teething problems. Time spent spamming people would be better spent on making improvements to the app itself.

Didn't appreciate the use of my number from Gumtree. Woke up to a text message seemingly from a person who had seen an advert I'd placed on Gumtree (but had deleted about an hour later) I replied (still thinking ot was a real person) and had a text with a link to this app. Pretty shameful tactics tbh, don't appreciate it. Wouldn't touch this app with a barge hole judging from the other reviews anyway.

Half the things on this app don't work. It keeps telling me to "log into Google Play store". It never sends verification codes, never asked me for an email and won't let me add one. I have zero confidence this is going to lead to anything other than uninstalling the app.

Awful to use and "customer service" takes too long to reply to requests for help. Also asks for permission to make phone calls, which is rediculous. The app keeps freezing and you have to close it multiple times and reopen it in order to get it to stop freezing. You'd be better off with apps like shpock or olio tbh.

Village is my favourite local buy sell app! Lots of great local bargains to shop in our neighbourhood, some of which are literally next door! As a young family, it's been super helpful to buy preloved clothes, shoes, toys, furniture, and other kids or baby stuff from friendly families in our local neighbourhood. Likewise been a lovely way to freecycle or sell our kids used stuff - love how I just take a quick photo, add a few words, and then it's immediately available for sale locally 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This app has an easy interface but the worst part is that we have to pay for everything.We cannot see any other products listed.We keep on getting the notifications regarding the people's interest in our product but while we try to look into the chats,it asks to pay.This is really very ridiculous.I downloaded this app to be more comfortable in reaching out to customers nearby me or anywhere but this seems to be a scam.

STOP TAKING PEOPLES DETAILS OFF OF GUMTREE!!!! sending out spam texts just to try and boost your own app!!!! Stop texting people spam and useless texts. It's WRONG taking people's numbers from other sites just to try and boost your own app. Looking at other reviews and the amount of 1*s you have this tactic has failed anyway.

Best selling app, love it! ❤️❤️❤️ Super quick to list, easy to chat with buyers, great local community feel, sold locally to someone in our neighbourhood same day. Now shopping for some amazing fashion and electronics preloved bargains for myself - lots of great local deals to choose from! Lovely way for our local community to help each other, waste less and do our bit for the environment! Thank you Village!

It needs a good update as it is really slow and just freezes up. The layout could be better but it's mostly about how slow this really is.

Cat. G. Dec 18, 2018     

Shameful. Whoever is in charge of the marketing techniques of this app should be fired. I, like many others who have left one star reviews, was texted on my private number referencing an ad I placed on Gumtree. The text was attempting to encourage me to download this app (which I have gone ahead and done specifically so I can write this review). Even more disgraceful is that none of the reviews referencing this issue have been responded to, but almost every other review has been. Again, shameful

Similar to other reviews my contact details were taken from a gumtree ad, recieved a text from what I thought was a potential buyer only to realise it was just someone trying to gain downloads of this app, will never use now.

jod. a. Jun 5, 2019     

just joined village,have put several items up for sale but still not quite sure how it works!!!don't no if you should put a price tag on your stuff or wait for offers and I certainly cant afford to pay to talk to people (else I would not be selling stuff for extra money 🤣😂🤣)so don't no how am meant to communicate with people

Kri. P. Dec 13, 2018     

Not happy that you used my details from gumtree. I had to install to leave a review, but I will be uninstalling. Thought I had a potential buyer, to then realise someone was trying to get me advertise using another app.

been on half an hour and already got a shop set up with all my listings on. easy to use and so many features. loving this app!

Reb. B. Jun 2, 2019     

set up add on gumtree.. and got a messge to my phone from this app saying would i put up the add on here.. not happy that someone is stalking peoples personal ads with deatils and using them to put on this site.. this is waste of time ..

Mil. A. Apr 10, 2019     

Took so much money for advertising even if item didn't sell. £5.99 bosted fee and £29.99 to chat with people not even one person contacted me. £36 wasted for nothing. Never download this app. Not recommended at all.

Village is the best app for everyone. the support is always active and ready to lend a hand whenever possible.

Mr. C. a. Jan 13, 2020     

No good It deleted my complete profile after one day. And asked me to create a new one. Plus it is not very busy Seems pretty empty.

Jad. Jun 4, 2019     

Don't appreciate being text as if its someone intresed in my Gumtree ad but really they're trying to promote this app. which I won't be using due to the texting me pretending to be a customer!!

Vic. W. Jul 3, 2019     

Taken my number from gumtree ad , I got a text asking if my items are still available after i replied yes they texted back asking me to post on the app how dare they waste my time ? My info is on gumtree for one purpose and its not to be solicited by lazy arse app developers.

Jul. B. Jun 2, 2020     

No one really buys anything on here. Its ridiculous. No one responds to messages, and they say it's free, but you have to pay for everything. You have to pay to send a message to someone.

Gem. A. May 6, 2019     

Claims to be within walking distance yet ive looked at items 30+ miles away! Claims a raise of a hand is someone showing interest yet wheb you contact those people yiu eithet get no reply or not interested! Charge £6.99 for a week of chat facility, i want a refund after less than a day!
