Giggle Trade Platform — User Guide
This guide introduces the complete buyer-side experience on giggletrade.com: discovery, comparison, ordering, payment, and follow-up.
1. What Giggle Trade Is
Giggle Trade is a B2B marketplace for used and refurbished mobile devices. It combines:
- Product-level browsing (Catalog) for wholesale planning.
- Device-level browsing (Stock) for exact unit selection.
- Weekly market references, grading standards, and buying workflows.
- Ask AI and partner resources to speed up sourcing decisions.
2. Main Navigation
From the top navigation, users usually work across:
- Home: entry point, buying paths, quality highlights.
- Catalog (
/market/catalog): model-level view for comparison and bulk planning. - Stock (
/market/stock): device-level view with availability and per-unit detail. - Market (
/market): marketplace hub and editorial content area. - Grades (
/grades): grading standards and inspection concepts. - Article (
/article): market trends and industry guidance. - Ask AI: context-aware assistant for public catalog/stock data.
3. Catalog vs Stock
| Path | Best for | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Catalog | Bulk or model-level sourcing | Aggregated offers, weekly reference ranges, filters, semantic search, product-level comparison |
| Stock | Exact unit purchase | Per-device inventory, condition specifics, IMEI/attributes, battery filters, immediate availability view |
Choosing quickly
Start with Catalog if you need a model shortlist and pricing direction.
Start with Stock if you already know what to buy and need exact units now.
