It's completely FREE to sell something on Neighbourly - plus you'll have a chance to meet one of your friendly neighbours. Here's a few tips and tricks to make your sale is a quick and easy one:
* Use good images to ensure your items really stand out
* Share an description of each item you are selling including details of its condition
* Add a price for your listing
* If you have multiple items to sell, group these into a single post and itemise the unique items you have for sale with their sale price.
* Once an item has sold, remember to mark it as SOLD (just click on the three little dots under your post)
* Consider listing an unsold item in the Free Stuff category if you're keen to see it moved along.
* Once a neighbourly has confirmed they'd like to purchase your item, share details using your Neighbourly Inbox
