Buying from a Private Seller

General information when purchasing from a private individual.

Laa Marketplace provides general information and dispute support. It does not replace advice from a qualified legal professional.

Key points

Legal protections differ from business purchases. Products must not be misdescribed. There is not normally an automatic change-of-mind return right. Serious fraud, stolen goods and safety issues can still be reported to Laa Marketplace and relevant authorities.

Before you buy

Inspect the item, keep communication inside Laa Marketplace, and reserve through the platform where possible.
