Online marketplaces are now well known. Most of them are known for being the place to find second-hand items, such as clothes and books. But Whoppah is different. Whoppah is a marketplace specialising in second-hand design and art.

We'd like to tell you more about what makes Whoppah unique as a marketplace.

Affordable luxury for design and art lovers

A marketplace for second-hand design and art is a great way to find special and unique furniture or wardrobes, for example.

It's also a great way to sell your own second-hand design furniture and art. With our marketplace, we have created a platform for design enthusiasts looking for something unique and affordable.

Here you'll find an extensive collection of high-quality second-hand furniture, lighting, art and decorative objects. In particular, we offer a wide selection of designer furniture from leading brands and iconic chairs such as the Eames chaise longue.

A secure market

One of the main concerns when buying second-hand items online is the security of the transaction. That's why we offer a marketplace where payment security is paramount. Whoppah acts as an intermediary between buyer and seller. This means that when you make a purchase, you pay the purchase price to Whoppah. When you receive the product in good condition, the seller is paid. This reduces the risk for both buyer and seller and makes transactions safer for both parties.

Quality and authenticity

We do not accept replicas. All items are carefully assessed by our team of experts. This means you can be sure that every item is high quality and authentic and will be a great addition to your home.

After-sales service

We want you to have a pleasant experience and customer satisfaction is our main concern. That's why we offer a service from A to Z.

Whoppah courier service

Buying a second-hand designer sofa? It's always a logistical challenge. Hiring a bus or trailer, calling in friends, packing, lifting, hoping it survives the journey undamaged. We solve that problem! We collect the item from the seller and bring it to the buyer at a time that suits him. This is your assurance that the item will be handled with care and in complete safety.

Can't find any offers near you? From now on, it doesn't matter where the item is offered for sale - everything will be taken care of.

Whoppah showroom

We offer the opportunity to display items in the showroom and come and see them. This gives you a physical experience. Sometimes you just want to see an item, or even try it on.

This gives the seller an extra opportunity to showcase the item for sale. We are happy to offer this opportunity to personally inspect an expensive or unique item.

In the showroom, the item can be viewed and assessed before the buying decision is made. What's more, our experts can answer any questions directly.

The showroom contains only a fraction of our total range, but it offers the chance to see items you may not have seen before, which may encourage you to broaden your interests.

Customer service

We have a professional team who are always on hand to help with any questions or problems you may have. If you have any questions about how the website works, or need help posting an ad or finding an item, you can always contact Customer Services. Get in touch by email or Whatsapp. They are happy to help and are always at your service. We always strive to find the best possible solution.
