Practical recommendations for safe shopping, selling second-hand goods, and ordering services on the I Love Spain platform.
Although the ILS moderation team tries to block suspicious accounts, basic vigilance is necessary. Always check the seller's profile, registration date, and reviews.
Do not transfer advance payments (bizum, bank transfer) to strangers without signing a contract or meeting in person. Insist on payment upon receipt.
To sell an item faster or find a client for your services, add high-quality real photos, a detailed description of the condition, brand, and characteristics. State a reasonable market price.
Schedule meetings to hand over valuable items (electronics, jewelry) in crowded places — in cafes, shopping centers, or even near police stations.
To send items to other cities, use verified delivery services (Correos, MRW) with a cash on delivery (contra reembolso) option.
