FLIP: Buy & Sell Sneakers for Pc

It's telling that the scattered positive feedback here is all from sellers, since this app explicitly recruits them to use the app. For the majority of people who would actually use the app, however -- the consumers -- this app is a slick package with no substance. Discouraged by low sale prices and little bidding activity, this app recently allowed select sellers to select a "secret reserve" price, invisible to all bidders and nowhere mentioned in the FAQs or auction terms, in exchange for ridiculously low starting auction prices (as low as $10 or $30 to start for a shoe worth 10x that). As a result, while this app might have been able to drum up a handful more bids (important to please those funders with traffic numbers!), in practice, that means that most shoes never sell. People bid, think they're going to win, but find out that the seller can cancel the auction because the secret reserve price was never hit. So the same shoe gets reposted a week later, and around and around we go. With such little traffic and most sales never actually going through, this app is dead on arrival. What keeps the doors open, if anything, are the "raffles" that allow you to give this app access to liquid cash in exchange for store credit. But if no auction ever goes through, there isn't anything to ever spend that credit on. I write this in the hopes that no one else is fooled into buying into this broken system in the future.

I give this app a 3 star rating for now. I haven't had the chance to to sell anything on the app yet but look into giving it a try. From browsing through the app it does seem promising, there are many ways for you to list your shoes description wise to make sure you get all the info in for potential buyers. This app does seem promising with the right publicity and in time should take off and become popular based off how it's set up. Hopefully it can change the game in a way to make things easier and for sneaker heads to connect more! But only time can tell. Recommend downloading and giving a try!

I’m not one to be petty usually, but this is certainly worth it. In August, I entered into a raffle for the Pharrell Williams Human Race NMDs in my size. On the 21st, I won the raffle, and was notified immediately by the this app team. I told them my size, and they said they would keep me updated. When I contacted them a month later, they said they were working on obtaining them. In October, they said there was a mixup with the order. In November, they stopped replying. I sent messages to everyone on their team, and I still have gotten no replies. This app is a sinking ship, and don’t throw your money into it. They charge buyers $20 for shipping, and they can’t keep their promises.

Flat rate for each transaction is great! The winning bid pays and you take home 90% of the money. Hard to beat that. If you let this app set the auction price, they will buy the shoe even if there’s no winning bidder. Hard to beat the guaranteed sale!!! The auctions last for a short amount of time so you’re time isn’t wasted days on end trying to locate a buyer. You get paid quicker than eBay! Try it, get paid
