24 alternatives to A new way to buy, sell, and exchange used stuff

I just launched my first startup and need feedbacks from HN on how to grow a video classified ads website. We're focusing on helping people advertising their second hand stuff via videos instead of photos. Any suggestions are appreciated. http://www.123exchanges - Connecting buyers and sellers with video.

Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. A new way to buy, sell, and exchange used stuff launched in 2011; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

    Unfortunately, I have a failed startup that needs to pay off some of its debts. Myself and a few others have over a combined 300 hours of work into this project. I'm hesitant to put this on Flippa or eBay or whatever; I just don't think that crowd will appreciate it. I'm looking for suggestions on where to try and sell it (other than HN). The site is Auto Swatch: http://swatch.nick.sg (this is just a demo site for the purpose of selling it. Actual domain is http://autoswatch.com). Discussion of the launch on HN: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2466545 Obviously this is a depressing…

    Hey HN! I’ve created (co-created with my co-founder) a tool called demoshake that helps you build interactive demos and use them in your sales process. The idea is simple - you create as many demos as you want, group them and let your sales team use them in their demos calls. You can embed demos in your landing page (iframe style) too. I welcome any criticism and suggestions! Harun

    Hello everyone. Just launched my project called "SideProjectors". It's a market place to sell and buy side projects. Would love to hear your feedback on it. Better yet, would love to see if you have any side projects you would like to sell (or offer) to others. I had the idea for awhile, there has also been several "Sell HN" threads. Anyway, here's to the MVP! Thanks.

    I've noticed that in the IndieHacker space, there are two distinct groups of people. Group 1: Have a million ideas, a thousand unused domains in their registrar account, and 15 projects that they're currently working on. Group 2: Have the drive to start something, but for the life of them can't find a good idea to start working on. I wanted to try and make a tool on my site that will bridge the gap between these two groups. The idea is this: People from group 1 can list a combination of a domain, logo and business plan on the site. You can list it for sale on any platform such as Gumroad,…

    http://theeverchangingwebsite.com The other day I was thinking about web advertising, and how inefficient it is for almost all parties involved. I was particularly focused on the banner ad, and then I started to wonder what would happen if the banner ad and the site content switched roles. This is purely an experiment at this point, but I'd like to know what the HN crowd thought of an unorthodox advertising solution like this. Thanks!

    I made a site to sell the husk of your stupid startup/project/whatever that you stopped working on for some reason. The idea is that you may have worked on some projects, wrote code, bought a domain, got customers even; and then life happened and you quietly abandoned your thing and now it's just collecting dust. Your useless project of the week might have some utility though for someone else, who knows? You can post anything for free that you're interested in dumping, and you can browse the projects you find cool and contact the sellers directly. I just list the stuff. The other…

    Been in the AI image gen space since 2023, before even GPT image gen was a thing, and after spending ~9K on Facebook ads for my own projects (made a video about that actually) I realized the thing I kept getting stuck on was the creatives themselves. I'm horrible at making reels-type video ads and Canva even with templates is surprisingly complicated for ad-specific stuff, plus everything ends up looking the same as everyone else using the same templates. Made a video going into detail about the full FB ads journey if anyone's interested:…

    Hi there, So a buddy a couple of days ago came up with the idea for a new SaaS product regarding gpt and image generation. We did a quick MVP that barely works, it breaks almost 50% of the time but we still wanted to validate the idea before going all in. We have almost 1k followers on Twitter together. Did a quick post describing the idea with a stripe link in the comments with a 5$ value, no landing page, and no shipped product. In exchange, the buyers become beta users. Around 30 mins later we got our first sale next 30 mins another 5$ and so on. Do we consider the idea validated? The…

    Hey HN, I've just begun my solopreneur journey. I've been a "serial starter" - often starting projects and never seeing them through, and I have finally finished my first project! Maybe this sentiment resonants with some of you, let me know in the comments below I built this tool as a simple no-risk method for turning more visitors into customers by A/B testing your sale promotions and automatically displaying the promotion with the highest conversion rate. Did you know that increasing your conversion rate by just half a percent can have a dramatic impact on your sales without needing…
