There is also flohmarkt for something federated.
Ricardo.ch is an absolute hellhole in Switzerland, they charge ridiculous fees and don’t offer any sort of protection so they basically make massive profit margins for nothing.
In this case it’s probably more ethical to use literal facebook marketplace.
There is an alternative that doesn’t charge fees, Annibis, but it was bought up by Ricardo and turned to shit. They really are the devil.
For Germans also kleinanzeigen.de
NL, marktplaats is owned by American eBay.
For people in the US that are reading this…
Yeah, you’re fucked. Craigslist still exists, as does Backpage, but they’re both pale shadows of what they once were.
I’m thinking about organizing “boot sales” but calling them “tailgate sales”
custojusto.pt usually requires payment and is mostly used by companies.
https://olx.pt/ does not and is mostly used by individuals.Allegro is not a second hand market for like a decade. For second hand you go to olx.pl
same as Ukraine. olx.ua
There is also flohmarkt, a federated, free and open source platform with multiple public instances, e. g. https://fedi.markets/ and https://flohmarkt.social/.
You can add…
Kleinanzeigen.de and Hood.de for Germany and Vinted.net for several European countries. I use Vinted and Kleinanzeigen quite a lot and had plenty of positive experiences.
my wife is currently in germany (north) as her dad died and she had to get rid of a ton of stuff. she said kleinanzeigen is barely active and she couldnt get rid of a bunch of things (anything from a big tv to collectables). she thinks the culture of buying used just isnt in vogue… here in ireland, adverts.ie is absolutely thriving
Kleinanzeigen is very active and I suspect that this might be the problem here. It’s absolutely flooded with furniture and antiques so it can be a tough time for sellers due to the competition. It’s great for anyone looking to buy though.
right ok… she’s kinda short on time on account of no longer living there and her dad sorta started hoarding in his final years. a lot of what he had was very valuable in his eyes but probably no one wanted to buy it. little .800 and .925 silver statuettes of planes. they’ll most likely sell the metal at strike price.
Half a year ago I posted a 15 year old Flat Screen TV, a 2.1 sound system, a smoke detector set and a couch table from Ikea for free. I had more than 100 messages in two hours and everything was picked up on the same day. I guess it really depends on what you want to get rid of and at what price. If you give away good stuff for cheap or free, there’ll be a ton of attention. Old fashioned furniture however might be rather hard to get rid of.
fair enough- was this close to a city? cause she’s kind of in the back ass of nowhere.
Kinda baffling how Kleinanzeigen.de isn’t the number one pick for Germany. Nothing even comes close in the used market.

Kleinanzeige.de is to 33% (via detour) eBay I just learned.
I’d say blocket.se would be more of an alternative than tradera here in Sweden.
gumtree.com is owned by eBay
Yeah was gna say unfortunately
There is also Vinted, which operates across EU.
Asides, in Poland Allegro Lokalne exists, which is making an attempt in the same market.
For Estonia, osta.ee is mostly auctions. You’d want soov.ee and okidoki.ee for most regular buy/sell classifieds and auto24.ee for cars.
In Greece we also have vendora.gr
Tradera is owned by ebay, use blocket.se
Not anymore. It’s Swedish again since 2021 or 2022.
