Vent: I thought those 'instant offer' apps for selling stuff were all the same

Honestly, I compared just listing a spare TV on a local group versus using one of those apps that gives you a quote right away. The app got me $75 in my account the same day, while the group chat took a week of back and forth for $60. Has anyone else found one app that's way faster than the rest?

Yeah, OfferUp's instant feature is the only one that actually pays out fast for me. The rest just ghost you after the quote.

Guess Parker_Thomas found the one app that doesn't ghost you after getting your hopes up.

Ugh, the ghosting after a quote is the worst. I tried selling a couch last month and got like five "I'll take it!" messages that just vanished into thin air. Makes you not even want to bother listing stuff sometimes.
