Hamrobazar.com provides online platform which helps buyers & sellers to meet with each other. However, it is always a good idea to take some precaution before conducting any transaction. Below are several safety guidelines. This is not a complete list. We advise you to always use common sense, sound judgment and trust your instincts.
Hamrobazar does not offer any kind of buyer protection.
Hamrobazar is not involved in buying or selling activities nor does it act as a middleman. Just like any newspaper classifieds, all the ads are posted by users for information purpose. These users are solely responsible for their ad content and their acts, without any liability on our part.
Avoid fraud & scams.
Don’t assume without confirmation that ad content and picture displayed are true and accurate. Ask questions to ad poster for more details if you have any doubt on your mind. Make yourself aware of common scams and fraud practices. Be suspicious of:
Meet in-person and at a public place.
While buying or selling through hamrobazar, it is most likely that you will be meeting a stranger. It is advisable to learn as much as you can about the person whom you are meeting or trading with. Ask the person about his work place, profession, etc. If in doubt, ask the person to show his identification document like license and citizenship.
Inspect the product in detail.
We recommend you to physically inspect the product before making payment. Take your time to check product thoroughly, avoid being rushed in by seller. If you do not have required expertise, ask advice from your friend or professional.
Be especially careful when buying/selling high value items.
If you are looking to buy something expensive, we recommend that you first meet the seller to check the product. Once you are ready to purchase, then visit ATM to arrange for the cash. We strongly encourage you to use mobile wallet (IME Pay, Esewa, Khalti, Connect IPS, etc) or bank transfer instead of cash payment. You may want to confirm with seller about acceptance of particular digital payment method before meeting.
Try to avoid non face-to-face transactions.
Hamrobazar is all about trading locally and does not encourage non face-to-face transactions (without buyer & seller meeting each other). However if you are interested, it is advisable to make payment through banks accounts. Never send cash directly or through remittance. Always keep photocopies of deposit slips, cheques or electronic transfer slip. Similarly, sellers are advised not to dispatch goods before receiving payment from buyer.
