How to sell your books & sports in 4 steps
Take clear photos
Show the cover and spine for books, and any wear on equipment. Group books into sets — sets sell faster than single titles.
Price it right
Textbooks and current-edition books fetch the most. For gym equipment, price by condition and brand — mention weight plates, resistance levels and age.
Post your free ad
Add a clear title (brand + model helps), an honest description and your city. Your books and sports gear ad goes live immediately.
Meet & get paid
Reply to buyers, meet in a safe public place, and get paid in cash or UPI at handover.
