Power system
State whether the tool is corded, battery-powered, pneumatic, manual, or gas-powered. For cordless tools, identify the verified voltage and battery platform.
OfferUp tool listing help
OfferUp Listing Generator for Tools
Tool buyers need to know the exact power system, what is included, and what operation was checked. Build an OfferUp draft around the tool in front of you rather than assuming a battery, charger, case, blade, or accessory comes with it.
No credit card required. Free plan included.
Before writing the draft
Confirm the useful tools facts
- Brand, exact tool type, and model number
- Corded, battery, pneumatic, manual, or gas power source
- Voltage and battery platform when known
- Battery, charger, case, blade, bit, guard, or accessories actually included
ListNestly is an independent seller tool. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by OfferUp, has no OfferUp posting integration, and does not automatically publish listings.
Details a local buyer can use
Important details for tools listings
A clear draft should answer likely questions without claiming more than the seller has personally confirmed.
Included equipment
List batteries, chargers, cases, guards, fences, blades, bits, handles, wrenches, hoses, manuals, and attachments individually.
Checked operation
Explain what you personally tested, such as trigger, direction switch, chuck, speed control, motor, or charger. Do not convert a quick power-on check into a full testing claim.
Wear and missing parts
Show job-site wear, rust, cracked housings, damaged cords, leaks, worn consumables, repairs, and missing safety components.
Seller review checklist
- Brand, exact tool type, and model number
- Corded, battery, pneumatic, manual, or gas power source
- Voltage and battery platform when known
- Battery, charger, case, blade, bit, guard, or accessories actually included
- Operation personally tested and anything not checked
- Work wear, rust, cracks, leaks, cord condition, and missing parts
- Pickup details for heavy, sharp, or awkward equipment
Photo guidance
- Photograph the full tool from both sides
- Show the brand, model label, plug, cord, battery connection, or air fitting
- Include battery and charger labels when those pieces are part of the sale
- Lay out the case, guards, blades, bits, handles, and every included accessory
- Show rust, cracks, repairs, leaks, worn parts, and missing components
Condition language
Describe what you can confirm
Distinguish ordinary cosmetic work wear from problems that affect operation or safety. Do not promise remaining battery life, blade life, calibration, or professional readiness unless you have reliable evidence.
Local pickup
Set practical pickup expectations
For table saws, compressors, tool chests, and other heavy equipment, explain dimensions, weight or awkwardness, detachable parts, loading help, and safe transport expectations.
Common listing mistakes to avoid
- Leaving out voltage, power source, or battery platform
- Using kit without listing each included component
- Assuming a battery, charger, case, blade, or guard is included
- Describing a tool as tested after only checking that it powers on
- Hiding damaged cords, leaks, cracks, worn parts, or missing guards
Questions an OfferUp buyer may ask
- What is the exact model number?
- Is it corded, tool-only, or sold with a battery and charger?
- What voltage and battery platform does it use?
- What operation did you personally test?
- Which guards, blades, bits, cases, or accessories are included?
- Are there leaks, cord damage, unusual sounds, or missing safety parts?
