I don't use carousell often. But recently found my window repair and my aluminium door contractor from there.

So far I've only bought stuff.
Only tried to sell my kids car seats before CNY, didn't work out so i just removed them during spring cleaning.

Carousell doesn't really have ads right? How they monetise?

Thats my question too. I buy stuff from there, no fee charged. I believe they charge sellers a small %, but their revenue must be small with no ads,  and their p&l many times worse than grab.

I use Carousell very often.. buy and sell.. through the years it did improved but can't fault them for those low ballers lah.. low ballers are everywhere..

Carousell did killed a few platform as it really offer all in one solution.. I believe SGcarmart more or less affected..

It does offer escrow service think call Carousell Protection but it charges 2.5% by the bank i think.

Overall it serve me well.. low baller just block and delete.. when come to scammer i think they are quite on the ball.

alot of flipper inside.. sneakers, bicycles, you name it you have it.. well used underwear i dunno lah! whahahahaha.. 

Yesterday I bought a almost new Brompton within 30 sec of seller posting..

Guess as long it protect both seller and buyer it should do well..

You marketing your flat via Carousell? 

Expand  

Marketed, and eventually sold within a month. There was plenty of agents who offered to represent me as a seller, but as I was WFH I didn't mind handling the sporadic flat viewing. So I saved a fair bit on agent's commissions also.

Many of these so called start-up burn investors' money to try make it big, when time is right, list it or sell it like some hot cakes, then get the hell out of it, subsequently become hot potato or not, is someone else problem...... remember all the shared bike things?

Carousell.

Wow. I Really feel like 井底之蛙。I mean ownself doing paperwork is quite achievable due to the hdb resale seminar etc which I also attended. 

But haha just surprised the buyer doesn't just go via PG or 99.co
