About Preloved - The Joy of Second Hand

Welcome to Preloved, the web site for people that love some of the older things in life.

Preloved was started in 1998 and has grown to become one of the largest classified advertising sites in the UK with hundreds of thousands of adverts in over 500 categories.

If you are buying or selling second hand, Preloved offers a great alternative to the hassle and expense of auction sites, and a friendly alternative to other more anonymous classifieds. This is because:

It's fast – No waiting 7 days for the auction to finish. No procession of potential bidders coming to visit. No travelling miles to then later be outbid.

It's free to sell – Preloved has no listing fees, no selling fees and no catches.

It's local – Once you become a member of Preloved, we automatically prioritise adverts in your local area. This means you can visit the seller and inspect the item before handing over the cash.

I got my lovely little terrier from Preloved.

Not only that but when I picked her up, I met my now partner Shaun. A bargain all round..!!

Would recommend this site to anyone..!!
