AptDeco is a furniture marketplace that handles pickup and delivery in select cities, ideal for urban flippers without a vehicle. Branded furniture like West Elm, CB2 and Room & Board sells well.
OfferUp is a local-first marketplace popular for electronics, tools, furniture and vehicles. It ended nationwide shipping, so it is now strictly a local-pickup channel and a useful second option alongside Facebook Marketplace.
Every marketplace has a different buyer, fee structure and category strength. Furniture sells locally, sneakers go to authentication platforms, vintage clothing to Depop and Poshmark, and almost everything sells on eBay. Most full-time resellers list on 3 to 5 platforms and use a crosslister to keep inventory in sync. Fees change often, so always verify the current fee page before pricing. The deciding factors usually come down to each tool's standout strength (for AptDeco: they handle pickup and delivery; for OfferUp: free local listings) weighed against its main drawback (limited cities versus local pickup only (shipping discontinued)).
