Marketplace Pickup

Someone else is driving to buy it right now. Send a Hand first — eyes on it, photos to you, pickup handled before it's gone.

Who this is for

The perfect Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist find is forty minutes away, the seller says "first come," and you're at work until six. A local Hand goes now, looks the item over in person, sends you photos of its real condition, and — on your go-ahead — picks it up and holds it for you or hands it off as arranged. Eyes on it before your money is, and the race to the seller's door is no longer yours to lose.

How it works

  1. Post the pickup and set your price. Share the listing area, what to inspect, and what you're paying for the trip. The full posted price is the worker's pay. (The item's purchase price is arranged between you and the seller — the Hand's job is the eyes, the inspection, and the pickup.)
  2. A local Hand claims it and goes right away, sending you photos of the item as found.
  3. You approve the photo proof, then payment releases. You pay your posted price plus a 15% platform fee — post a $40 pickup and the worker gets $40, the fee is $6, you pay $46. Nothing is due before the proof is in and approved.
