It links the buyers to the sellers. The buyer just\u00a0posts an item they\u00a0want to buy\u00a0plus\u00a0the budget they are willing to spend and a photo of the\u00a0item. After that, they just sit back and wait for sellers to make them offers plus the pricing\u00a0and an accompanying photo of the item. The buyer can then choose from the posted items and can even chat with the seller directly for negotiations or inquiry\u00a0purposes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The buyer\u00a0finds sellers easily and vice-versa the sellers finds ready buyers easily and conveniently.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">HISTORY : The idea came about when one day last year (2016) when I wanted to buy something online. I rummaged the net, downloaded numerous buy &amp; sell apps and even walked store to store; all of this\u00a0to no avail! Arrggh! All the apps I saw online were Seller Based apps &#8211; where the app showcases what the sellers are selling. None of them were Buyer Based &#8211; where the buyer posts what they want to buy and &#8230;behold&#8230; (drum-rolls)&#8230; BuyIt Was Born!<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Founder<\/em><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Nicholas Songok<\/strong> : Developer (Android, Java, Web Developer)<\/p>\n<p><em>Adroid app link : <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=ke.co.buyit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BuyIt: Find What To Buy &amp; Sell<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Your products and services\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An android application (BuyIt).

The buyer posts what they want to buy and the sellers bid for the items. So the buyer chooses what is perfectly suits them, they can also chat with seller and negotiate on the price, quantity and quality. The buyer gets sellers for their items easily and also the\u00a0sellers gets ready buyers for their items easily. A Win-Win Scenario for all!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your business model <\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The solution, for now, is free for all.
