Buy and sell with people whose profile you can check
A listing is a named post with a price and a condition. No fees, no commission, no payment layer.
A marketplace listing on Asyncbit is a post type. You pick “For sale” in the composer, describe the item, add photos, set a price in rupees and choose a condition: new, like new, good or fair. The listing goes out like any other post, and it is always posted under your name.
That last part matters more than it sounds. Listings can't be anonymous, so every seller is a real account with a profile you can open: when they joined, how many posts they've made, their level, and which of the people you follow also follow them. None of that proves someone is honest, but it's a lot more to go on than a listing from an account created an hour ago.
Asyncbit takes nothing from a sale. There are no listing fees, no commission and no payment system: price, payment and handover are arranged between buyer and seller. The “Message seller” button opens a private chat, and like every one-to-one chat on Asyncbit, that needs the two of you to follow each other. Until then, the comments on the listing are the place to ask a question.
How marketplace works on Asyncbit
- 1
Create a for-sale post
Describe the item, add photos (up to 10 on the web, 5 on Android), set a price in ₹ and pick a condition.
- 2
Buyers check who you are
Your name is on the listing, and your profile — join date, post count, level and mutual followers — is there for anyone who wants to look.
- 3
Talk it through
Buyers can ask in the comments, or message you privately once you follow each other.
- 4
Mark it sold
On the Android app, edit the listing to mark it sold, so nobody wastes a message on something that's gone.
- 5
Meet and pay sensibly
Meet somewhere public and check the item before paying. Asyncbit isn't part of the sale, so there's no refund route through the app.
What makes it worth using
No fees, no commission
Listing is free, and Asyncbit takes no cut of any sale.
Always named
Listings can't be posted anonymously.
Condition up front
New, like new, good or fair, chosen by the seller.
Scams can be reported
Listings are posts, so spam and scams can be reported to the moderation team.
Marketplace questions
- Does Asyncbit handle payment?
- No. There's no payment system. Buyer and seller agree payment and handover between themselves, so treat it with the same care as any private sale.
- Does it cost anything to list?
- No. There are no listing fees and no commission.
- Why can't I message the seller?
- Private chats need a mutual follow. Follow the seller and ask in the listing's comments; once they follow you back, you can message each other.
- How do I mark an item as sold?
- Edit the listing in the Android app and mark it sold.
