Your journey

Four deliberate steps

Take your time at every stage. A good local deal should stay clear, calm and easy to verify.

01
Browse with purpose
Use search and filters to find relevant local listings. Read the full description instead of relying on a single photo.
02
Check the details
Look at the photos, condition, price and seller profile. If an offer seems too good to be true, pause and verify it.
03
Keep it clear
Ask practical questions in DealShop and agree the details before you travel. Do not share passwords, one-time codes or banking details.
04
Complete safely
For collection, choose a public, well-lit place. Inspect the item and its condition before you agree to complete a deal.

Safety, without false promises

Your judgement is part of the protection

DealShop uses protected member actions and reporting routes to help keep the marketplace organised. No online marketplace can guarantee every person or listing is genuine, so use the controls and trust your instincts.

Do not rush

Pressure to pay or respond immediately is a warning sign. A legitimate deal can wait while you check it.

Keep private details private

Never share a password, one-time code or bank information with another member. Be careful with unfamiliar links and QR codes.

Report and keep evidence

Use Report for suspicious behaviour. Keep the advert, messages and payment records if you need to explain what happened.

Not live in early access. Live escrow payments, payouts, identity checks, courier delivery and vehicle-data services are not available yet. Do not treat a coming-soon label as active protection.

Check it yourself

Straightforward Irish safety guidance

Independent checks are valuable. These direct public sources explain common scams, what to keep, and what to do if something feels wrong.
