Two ads at the same price are rarely the same deal. Seeing them together is what makes the difference obvious.
Comparing
Step 1: Add a listing to compare, then add a second one.
Step 2: Open the comparison to see both sets of details in one view — price, location and the category fields the sellers filled in.
Step 3: Decide which one to contact first. You can only be in one place at a time, so order matters.
What this cannot do
- A comparison only shows what each seller entered. An ad with blank fields will look worse than it may be.
- Comparison is not a quality judgement. It puts facts next to each other; the judgement stays yours.
Watch out for
- Comparing on price alone. The cheaper ad is often the one missing the details that would explain why.
