A free online silent auction, without the clipboards
Selling off office furniture, running a small club fundraiser, or auctioning items among friends? Put everything in one private sale and let people bid from their phones. Everyone sees the top bid, and the highest bid when time runs out wins.
How it works
Upload your photos
Snap everything you're getting rid of and upload it all at once from your phone. Our AI groups photos of the same thing, names each item, writes a short description and suggests a starting price from what similar things sell for used.
Share one link
Check the details, change anything you like, then send the link to friends, family, neighbors or a group chat. Add a password if you want it extra private.
Friends bid, you hand off
Friends sign in with just their email (no account to create) and bid. Everyone sees the top bid; outbid friends get an email. When bidding closes, winners get your email to arrange pickup and payment.
Good fits
- Office moves: sell desks, chairs and monitors to coworkers before the movers arrive.
- Small clubs and groups: auction donated items among members.
- Friends and neighbors: a relaxed way to sell things to the people around you.
What to know before you start
- Bids are visible as a top amount (bidders don't see who placed it), and each new bid must beat it by a small step.
- You set the end date, from 1 to 30 days, or close bidding yourself.
- FriendsSale doesn't process payments. Winners get the organizer's email to arrange payment and pickup, so it suits groups where people know each other.
- Up to 300 items per auction.
