Chainsaws, welders and drills on olx.ro via Viber

On a Romanian building site the phone lives in Viber, so a short text about a well-priced welder on OLX gets read between two jobs.

A retiring carpenter’s welder, gone by noon

Picture a carpenter in Brașov retiring and listing his welder, grinder and a box of clamps at a price meant to clear the garage that week. Tradespeople, renovators and resellers all want that ad. The seller does not run an auction; he answers calls in order and sells to the first person who turns up.

Hearing about the ad soon after it goes up is what puts you on that list, and a Viber text is hard to miss.

Living with text-only alerts

Our Viber alerts carry no photo card and no buttons. With tools that is rarely a problem: titles such as „inverter welder, 200A, barely used“ tell you a lot, and one tap on the link shows the pictures.

If you want the photo in the alert itself, add Telegram or email to the same search; both include it.

Spoken Romanian versus the catalogue

Tool ads on olx.ro are written the way people talk. Search the everyday word („flex“ rather than polizor unghiular) and the brand, and leave out long model codes that sellers do not bother to type. If a search stays silent for a week, that is usually the reason.

Inspecting used gear before cash changes hands

Run it. Listen to the bearings on a grinder, check the chain and bar on a chainsaw, watch whether a compressor holds pressure. For cordless tools, ask how old the batteries are. For a welder, strike a test bead if you can.

On pricey professional tools, ask for the receipt or original case with the serial. Pay on handover or via Livrare OLX inside the site; a link in chat asking for your card details is not from OLX. A reseller who knows the brand will spot a tired tool faster than you, so ask questions the way they would: hours of use, last service, what was replaced. Honest sellers answer without fuss.

Viber searches per plan for a trade

Free gives one search checked every 30 minutes, Viber included. Starter at $5.99 gives five searches every 10 minutes, so a chainsaw, a welder and a compressor can each have their own. Pro at $14.99 gives twenty searches with the fastest checks.
