Ratings and reviews

The payout time takes a while and the app is glitchy. To block a user if they are harassing you or if you don't like them, it is submitted as a request. You can't edit your auction times to what you truly want, you have to contact support through email which can take days to get back to you. There are many buyers who request to cancel shipping after paying for the plant even though it's considered " non ghosting" but they can ghost out of no where. It needs work, it's still very new.

This app is very hard to use. The search feature is very strange. If you have one word out of place it will not show you what you are looking for. The seller side is easy to use but eeCh listing has a shipping option that says worldwide. To my knowledge this is not an option that can be changed so I am unsure why this would be put on the listings. The filter panel is glitchy. Overall this app is not user-friendly. I have had a hard time enjoying my time using this app.

Brings the simplicity to shop 🌱. App makes it easy to navigate, purchase and sell in a specific world market. Access to rarieties that would otherwise be difficult to find. A+
