Buying from a Leboncoin listing
We help review and buy a selected Leboncoin lot. We discuss condition, included items and the seller's city before payment; if collection is required, we first establish whether collection and forwarding are possible.
What you entrust to OZTA
You choose the product and approve the order terms. We handle the agreed purchase: communicating with the seller, agreeing the invoice, arranging payment and providing status updates. Sourcing, separate inspections and onward delivery are discussed according to your needs.
- 1
Product purchasing
We agree the specific item, condition, included accessories and transaction terms. For auctions, we separately record the bidding limit: participation does not guarantee a purchase. We arrange payment only within the agreed order.

Finding rare items
We will set up notifications and monitor new listings. If you need a specific product, we will help find it. Standalone sourcing is charged separately. The published package applies to China; for another market or an extended brief, we will prepare an estimate before work begins.
Supplier search scope and price - 3
Condition inspection
We request additional seller photos. Receipt inspection availability, contractor, price and terms are confirmed before payment.
- 4
Arrange delivery
We confirm the timing and route after checking the product, address and carrier's terms.
- 5
Import documents
For used goods, import conditions depend on the specific category and route. We first check applicable requirements and the scope of work.
- 6
Order status
A paid order has a responsible coordinator. We agree on a communication channel and pass on confirmed status updates from the seller and contractors. If conditions change, we explain why and discuss the next step; tracking depends on the carrier.
Order assistance
We check the product, seller, payment and delivery from Leboncoin before ordering.
We check the payment method
We check payment method and purchase availability based on the seller, order and available channel. Terms and separate expenses are agreed before payment.
We clarify seller terms
Correspondence, bargaining and detail clarification take place in French. We help you understand them without a language barrier.
Consolidate purchases
If the goods can be stored and transported together, we agree consolidation at one warehouse and compare the total shipment cost.
Check before payment
We agree whether an in-person inspection is possible for the specific seller and listing. If the agreed inspection reveals a significant discrepancy, we do not proceed with purchasing without your decision.
Fair transaction terms
We agree on condition criteria before purchasing. If checks reveal a discrepancy, we record it and discuss available actions under the seller's rules.
Leboncoin: condition and how to receive the item
For a Leboncoin lot, provide the link and seller's city. If the listing specifies collection, collection and forwarding availability must be established before payment.

- France
For a used item, request photos of defects and a full contents list.
Large furniture requires dimensions, dismantling availability and loading conditions.
How your order proceeds
We first establish the product and purchase terms, then agree the estimate and the steps after purchase. You decide before paying for each stage; product substitutions or budget changes require separate approval.
Link or item number
Send a link or item number. If you have no link, photos and a description are sufficient; specify the option and quantity you need.
Seller and availability
We will clarify availability, included items, condition and shipping from the seller. We will discuss any differences from your request before purchase.
Region and restrictions
We will check whether the product can be purchased and shipped to your country, and which documents and packaging are required.
Price before payment
We will show the product price, delivery to the first warehouse, the OZTA fee and known subsequent costs. We will identify amounts that still depend on weighing, measurement or an external quote. Purchasing begins after your approval and payment for the relevant stage.
From purchase to shipment
After agreement, we arrange the purchase, communicate with the seller and provide updates. Only the agreed checks and packaging are carried out before onward shipment. We record the procedure for discrepancies or returns in advance.
Purchasing, quality inspection and transport involve different work. We record what is included in the order, who performs individual actions and which documents you will receive. Returns depend on the seller, stage of fulfilment and agreed terms.
How to calculate the purchase-on-behalf fee
We use the agreed goods price from the seller and apply the rate from the table. Delivery is not part of the fee calculation.
Rate by product price
Minimum OZTA purchasing fee: $20
- Less than $1,000
- 10%
- From $1,000, but less than $5,000
- 9%
- From $5,000, but less than $10,000
- 8%
- From $10,000, but less than $20,000
- 7%
- From $20,000
- 6%
The minimum OZTA purchasing fee is $20. For example: goods at $50 + fee of $20 = $70, excluding delivery, import costs, insurance and bank costs.
Fee calculation example
- Seller's goods price
- $2 000
- OZTA fee
- $180
- $2 000 × 9% = $180
- Goods + fee
- $2 180
This covers only the goods and fee. Seller delivery and onward freight, import charges, insurance, banking and foreign-exchange costs are separate.
What the fee includes
- One seller, up to 10 agreed items and one planned shipment.
- Checking company and payment details and purchasing terms, and agreeing the seller’s invoice.
- Payment of the seller’s invoice is already included in the fee; we do not charge a second percentage for it.
- Seller communication, order statuses and OZTA report.
What is paid separately
- Seller delivery to our warehouse and onward transport.
- Import charges, insurance and warehouse operations, when needed.
- Bank and foreign-exchange costs, and any additional work after agreement.
If additional contractor work is needed
For additional work: the provider’s price + 10% for OZTA, with a minimum OZTA coordination fee of $20 per agreed assignment. If coordination is already included in a paid package, there is no second fee. Samples and their delivery are paid separately. We do not apply this percentage to government charges, import taxes or the insurance premium.

What is important to know before ordering
Answers about checking the product, seller, payment and delivery from Leboncoin.
What if the product does not work?
If a discrepancy is found before international shipment, we will document it and agree the available steps under the seller's rules and the request terms.
How can I check a used product's condition?
We request additional photographs or video from the seller. If inspection and functional testing are needed, we first agree on availability, scope and price. Inspection evidence is provided to you before onward dispatch.
What is best to look for on Leboncoin?
For used furniture, tools or a collectible, start with the listing link. Specify the seller's city, condition and dimensions: collection and packaging may determine purchase feasibility.
How does Leboncoin differ from Wallapop?
Leboncoin lists advertisements in France, while Wallapop operates in Spain. The choice depends on the seller's country for the item you need. We check each listing's terms separately.
Can I negotiate with sellers?
Specify the acceptable amount and receiving conditions. We clarify the offer with the seller; agreement to a discount cannot be assumed in advance.
How can I check a seller's reliability?
For Leboncoin Pro, we check seller status and available company information. For private listings, we review history, feedback and product evidence; payment is agreed after checking the listing and transaction terms.
How can I order a product from Leboncoin through OZTA?
Send a link, the required option, quantity and destination city. We will clarify availability and the seller's terms, prepare an estimate and explain the returns policy. We begin purchasing after your agreement and payment.
Can a legal entity pay for an order by bank transfer?
Yes. A company can pay an agreed OZTA order by bank transfer against an invoice. We agree on the currency, bank details and order documents before payment.

We will compare platforms by product, seller, shipping terms and purchasing availability.
