Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace or Nextdoor are top choices to avoid high shipping costs. eBay is an option if priced to account for bulky shipping fees.
Selling Tips
Deep clean the tanks with white vinegar and water to clear the clouding before photographing. Explicitly state if the hose/upholstery tools are included. Demonstrate it working in a video or list as 'Tested'. Use keywords like 'Pet Hair', 'Deep Clean', and 'HeatForce'.
