Givore is a free app. You post something, a neighbor asks, they collect it. Nothing is sold. Furniture, electronics and household things move between neighbors across the city, and it starts with one item on the map.
Some items sit for weeks. Almost always the post is the problem, not the item. Here is the fix for each.
Say the size, the age, and that it has been on a frame. Without those three, most people scroll past.
Photograph it switched on. That one picture answers the only question anybody has.
Name the model and say whether ink is included. Half of these go untaken for want of one line.
Heavy and awkward. Say how many flights of stairs and whether it folds.
Measure it before posting. Height and width, and how deep it is. Nobody can guess that from a photo.
Say exactly what is wrong. Someone who repairs things will take it, and only if they trust the description.
Daylight, and nothing else in the frame beside it.
Size, model or measurement. Numbers get read and adjectives get skipped.
What works, what does not, and how it has to be carried out.
If the awkward item goes, everything after it is easy.

Meeting someone you don't know is always worth approaching with a little common sense. Givore connects neighbours who want to give and receive things, but you should always use your own judgment.
For a safer exchange:
If something doesn't feel right, you don't have to go through with it. It's always okay to change your mind and walk away.
