The app is pretty efficient for both sellers and buyers as they could communicate directly through the private message system without needing to resort to exposing their phone numbers, especially for sellers where displaying their phone number publicly might not feel very safe for some of them.

One thing to take note of is that the default distance when searching for items is within 25 km from your location, so if the items you wanted is not found nearby you can change the location to cover the entire country, pretty sure you would find the things that you want. |
There is also an image search option in Carousell so even though you might not the exact name of the items that you want you can just snap a photo and search it through Carousell, the accuracy is very high so usually you are able to see what you want in the search results.

There are both new and used stuff available at Carousell so you need to see the description first before buying. It is recommended that people should sell at Carousell instead of just using FB because when people are browsing the platform they have the intention to buy something, while at FB they would just scrolled over. |
Yes I agree with this statement, and business on Carousell is very easy to manage through their app, just make sure you turned on the notification setting so that you would receive all the customers' message immediately, wont be bothering you too much and manageable even for someone with a full time job.

Well at Carousell you can arrange whether to COD or online banking if the seller is okay with it, furthermore as the seller you will also be able to obtain the money immediately when the deal is done without needing to go through a third party. |
Yes this is true, in addition there are also no charges for listing your items for sale on Carousell so you can list whatever that you wanted to sell without worrying about the fees that you need to pay, just snap a picture and upload it immediately, very simple.

sometimes you might try to deal with the seller for COD if you are near to the seller, some of them are able to provide COD
