Every bike I see on Offerup I make an offer.I don't usually search for anything specific.Just sit down for 5 minutes and send out offers, I'll lowball 50% of asking price usually.If you know your bikes you should be able to find some nice deals, I don't always lowball offers.However, I grabbed that Cannondale because I asked for 150$ when the asking price was 300$.
Sometimes you get lucky and sometimes you don't, but every bike you buy you should be 100% confident it will sell.I haven't bought a bike so far that I've been iffy if it'll sell.What a lot of time I do to bikes I don't know the value of is to just google it.Gather as much knowledge about the name of the bike as possible.Ask the person selling the bike for the Brand and model if it isn't clear in the photos.So, for example, I'd google "Cannondale 600 Jakyll price/value" and see what pops up.Takes a few seconds and it's saved me on some deals from buying total trash.
Also, if you're using Offerup make sure to grab their app.I like the website more than the app, but having your phone on you is always handy in situations.
