On Delcampe, communication between members is essential.
However, the possibility to contact another member of the website depends on certain criteria: for example, if you have already made a transaction with them or if you are a verified member. You also have the possibility to ask a question directly on the page of a specific item.
This article covers the different cases:
- Contacting my seller or my buyer
- Asking a seller a question about an item
- Contacting a member with whom I have never made a transaction
Contacting my seller or my buyer

Tip: The button, which is available on all item pages, is another way to get in touch with a seller, provided you have already completed a transaction with that member or are a verified member.
Contacting a member with whom I have never made a transaction
For security reasons, it is initially not possible to directly contact a member with whom at least one transaction has not been finalized beforehand. This limitation can be lifted by requesting the postal verification.
Postal verification is a paid and optional service. It allows you to verify the postal details entered in your account by sending a code to your home address mentioned on Delcampe. Once validated, the postal verification also gives you the right to contact other members without having made a transaction beforehand.
I am a verified member
- Click on the seller's nickname to open his/her profile
- Click on
- Enter your message
- Click on
I am not a verified member
In this case you have to become a verified member. Once your postal verification has been validated, you will have the right to contact other members without having completed a transaction beforehand.
