A less awkward way to sell
Private marketplaces can work, but they often involve writing an advert, answering similar questions several times, arranging viewings and dealing with uncertain buyers. Zarax gives you a single route from the first description through to inspection and payment.
The process is deliberately straightforward. Share accurate information and clear photographs, then we can decide whether the item is something we want to buy. Read how a Zarax quotation progresses before you begin if you would like the full picture.
What shapes the offer
A precise model matters, but it is only one part of the assessment.
Include the complete detail shown on the item rather than relying on a broad product family.
Mention what is present, what works and anything that a photograph alone may not explain.

An honest description helps avoid surprises when the item is inspected. Our guide to how condition can influence an offer explains why small details are worth including.
From first detail to payment
Add the exact model, specifications, condition and clear photographs.
If we are interested, we will discuss the details and agree a price with you.
If Zarax is interested, you will receive the sending details privately after the item and price have been discussed.
When the item matches the agreed description, payment is made by bank transfer or PayPal.
Before the handover
Clean the item enough for its condition, labels and fittings to be assessed.
Photograph every side, the model label, accessories and any visible wear.
Keep loose parts, cables and accessories together.
If the item needs to be sent, use the private instructions we provide and follow our packaging guidance. Do not send anything until Zarax has confirmed that it wishes to proceed.
Compare the routes
Zarax reviews the item details directly. There is no public advert and no need to manage messages from several prospective buyers.
You create the listing, choose the asking price, reply to enquiries and decide how to handle collection, delivery and payment.
For a fuller breakdown, compare selling to a direct buyer with using a marketplace.
Customer feedback
The vacuum was clean, working and redundant after an upgrade. Zarax inspected it and paid through PayPal.
I listed the model, attachments and battery condition, plus a photo of a cracked clip on the wand. Zarax priced it with the fault included and paid after receiving the complete set.
Our cordless vacuum still worked, but a newer model had replaced it. I cleaned the bin and filters, photographed every attachment and explained that one plastic clip on the extension wand was cracked. Zarax reviewed the request and offered an amount for the full kit. I followed the delivery instructions, the inspection confirmed the condition and the PayPal payment came through.
The cordless vacuum had lost some stamina, much like its owner. Zarax still found it worth considering. 😄
It ran for about fifteen minutes, came with three tools and had a split in the flexible hose. I listed the lot without dressing it up.
We replaced our vacuum after moving to a house with more carpet, leaving the compact cordless model unused. Suction was still respectable, but the battery tired quickly and the brush head carried plenty of scratches. I cleaned the filters, photographed each attachment and noted the damaged hose. Zarax assessed it from those facts and paid once the received item matched.
Useful questions
These answers cover the parts of the process people usually want to confirm before requesting a quote.
Value my vacuum cleanerStart with the brand, full model number, specifications and an honest description of the condition. Add clear photographs of the item, label, accessories and any faults.
Potentially, yes. Acceptance depends on the item and the fault. Explain exactly what happens when it is switched on or used, and show the damaged area clearly.
Not always. The original packaging, power supply, remote, manuals or matching accessories can provide useful context, so list everything that is included.
Do not send the item before receiving confirmation. If we wish to proceed, the receiving location and delivery instructions are shared with you privately.
Payment follows receipt or collection and inspection. If the item matches the agreed details, Zarax pays the agreed amount by bank transfer or PayPal. If anything differs materially, we contact you first.
