HopUp - Airsoft Marketplace

Used to be great. I’ve been using hopup for years and can only say it’s gone on a steep decline. The platform went from being able to freely sell, trade, and talk about airsoft. There was a 10% selling fee that was barely anything on smaller orders, and it was a good platform. I can say now that looking at the app, I can only see that it is pay to sell. You have the same 5 loonies trying to sell their stuff over and over again. Their orders “bump” to the top every day, which makes it near impossible for a new seller to try to sell their guns, and they rip off their buyers. I say a post one time that was from one of the top sellers that was a plastic springer that they painted black and were selling for $125. The app also has dozens of issues just trying to navigate through it. I can safely say that hopup has gone to garbage, and I’m sorry for any beginner airsofter who falls into the traps of the sellers on the marketplace, and who falls for the false truth that you can sell your guns on the app. It’s sad what this app has come to, and it’s disappointing

Don’t get me wrong, this app is wonderful but some of the people on there are not. If someone is selling something and they don’t want to go through the app or PayPal, they are most likely a scammer trying to take your money. I have had 3 encounters with people so far and 2 of them have been excellent but that 1 other person was trying to take my money and not give me what I bought. Always message them through HopUp and not messages for your own safety. The app has allowed me to trade and sell thing that I have no use for anymore which is a big plus in my opinion because there aren’t many other apps like this meant for airsoft-ers.

Threw this app Ive been able to find and exchange in a very honest and good manner with other people over information and just history. You can find whatever your looking for on here and trade anything you have decided you don’t need any longer pretty swiftly it’s a splendid app with good support from the administration and trust aswell as understanding from the buyers! Thank you hopup and every human who runs this insanely functional and safe app ;)
