## Example request

Find a used desk chair nearby within $150 USD. Check the condition, compare the asking prices, and draft questions for the sellers. Once I pick a listing, help negotiate within my limit and arrange a pickup time I can make.

## Workflow

1. Compare local listings against your budget and requirements.
2. Prepare condition questions and a proposed offer.
3. Coordinate an approved message thread and pickup plan.

## Result

A suitable listing, a clear negotiation plan, and pickup details in one place.

## Human review

Approve seller messages, the final price, and any payment.

## Collaboration

Bring in the person helping collect the item with only the details they need.
