Find Your Way Around Fairsale
We’ve designed the Fairsale website to be as user-friendly as possible. You should be able to navigate your way around the site and find your way to those all important listings in no time at all. We are committed to continually evolving the service and welcome feedback if you think there is anything we could be doing better. In the mean time, here’s a short guide to help you get started:
1. Searching Fairsale
What would we be without our search function? This is your ticket to the products you want to find on the site. Fill in the search box with keywords relating to the item you are looking for and click Search. Be specific but sensible when searching – you don’t have to go into too much detail but you do want to narrow down the results. The search function is sophisticated and intelligent but there’s no substitute for accuracy. To provide even better results you can use the filters on the left side.
2. Browsing Fairsale
Perhaps you are not looking for a specific item but would like to do some window shopping when using the site? You can do this too of course! Various functions will help you along the way:
- Browse by Category (e.g. electronics, property, car and car parts) if you want to limit the number of listings you see in your list. You can add further filters to see particular sub-categories (‘phone’ under ‘electronics’ for example).
- Browse Recent Listings by clicking the link at the bottom of the homepage. This will allow you to see the latest Fairsale ads.
3. Navigating Our Listings
If a listing piques your interest, click on the icon or product title to open the listing page. From here you can find out more about the item and contact the seller if you are interested in a purchase. You also have other functions available to you including:
- Favourite Button – Click this to add an item to your personal favourites list accessed via your account (click the arrow next to your name at the top of the page to view your favourites).
- Like Button – If you like what you see, click this button. It helps us monitor popular ads.
- Report Listing – We hope you never have to use this, but if you spot anything untoward about a listing and wish to make a complaint, click this button. You’ll be taken to a contact page from which you can report an issue. We take these matters very seriously.
- Contact Seller – Sellers want to hear from potential buyers – it’s what the site is all about. Click on Show Contact Number to see the seller’s telephone or select Send Message to contact them via the site. Don’t forget to monitor your own messages inbox when you are waiting for a reply.
- Share a listing with your Facebook, Tweeter or Google+ contacts.
