RUSTI

Buying & selling used products in India

Looking for an OLX alternative in India? Here's what RUSTI does differently.

OLX popularised free online classifieds in India, and it's still where a lot of people start when they want to sell an old phone or buy a second-hand car. RUSTI covers the same ground — used cars, bikes, mobiles, furniture, electronics and more — but was built around one problem every classifieds buyer runs into: knowing whether a listing (and the person behind it) can actually be trusted before you spend an evening messaging them.

Frequently asked questions

Is RUSTI free to use?

Yes. Posting a listing on RUSTI is free, and browsing, chatting with sellers and buying is free for buyers.

How is RUSTI different from other classifieds sites like OLX?

RUSTI runs every new listing through an automated trust and fair-price check before it goes live, and holds anything with a high risk score for manual review rather than publishing it immediately. Sellers can also verify their phone, email and business details to build a visible trust score.

What can I buy or sell on RUSTI?

Used cars, bikes, mobiles, laptops and electronics, furniture, appliances, fashion, books, sports gear, musical instruments, toys, and real estate — the same broad categories most classifieds marketplaces in India cover.

Is it safe to buy a used product from a stranger online?

Treat any classifieds marketplace — RUSTI included — the same way: meet in a public place for local pickups, inspect the item before paying, avoid full advance payment to someone you haven't met, and use the platform's in-app chat rather than moving to an unverified number right away.
