    If you read the comments on the adds it will crack you up. I haven’t seen an add yet with a serious offer. It is hilarious how the sellers are actually taking some of the offers seriously only to be told the person meant to offer €1.50 instead of €1500.

    Be very carefull if you download the app as there are a lot of reports of malware being added. If it asks for permission to send and receive SMS messages (it will be in orange text when the permissions comes up before you install it and warns you it could cost you money) then it is the malware version. It is being reported that it sends premium texts without you knowing. The original app did not ask for this permission.

    Its adverts. Bidding down site not bid up auction site. Always put a high listing price because you’re not allowed to offer over the asking price.

    No, they’re putting an asking price of 1,500 on them, some jokers are bidding or reaching deals and then disappearing without completing the purchase. Why would someone pay 1.5k for something that is available for free? Don’t be so naive
