"I told Scout I wanted a gas saver, a mid-sized Toyota sedan, and honestly didn't expect much for that price... it was a long shot but after 65 days I couldn't believe Scout actually found a 2010 Toyota Camry, low miles (165,000), ran perfectly, for just $2,500. I paid the "Tier 2 Priority Silver" option... what a deal!! I was alerted just 2 hours after it was posted and glad I bought this tier - Worth every day of the wait."

"I was hoping to find a kayak in about a week or so — it ended up taking 25 days, but I was really happy Scout found me a 12 foot sea kayak with a ton of gear included for $500. I saved a ton of money, and it was well worth the wait!"

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
How many leads should I expect to receive?
Each time Scout runs a search, you can expect anywhere from 0 to 50 new leads, depending on how common or readily available your desired item currently is. Every single search is capped at a maximum of 50 listings — so no matter how many matches exist out there, you'll never receive more than 50 listings in any one email. Over the full length of your search, those individual emails add up — how much depends on your chosen tier's frequency and duration.

What if Scout doesn't find anything?
If you don't receive an update, that means nothing new or relevant has come up yet since your last check — not that anything has gone wrong. Scout keeps checking on your tier's schedule for the full length of your search, so a quiet inbox just means the search is still active and hasn't turned up a match yet.
What is Engaging Clutch Mode?
Clutch Mode is Scout's way of pacing check-in emails during a quiet stretch. After a few searches in a row turn up nothing new, Scout eases off notifications so your inbox isn't flooded with "nothing new" messages — but he keeps searching quietly in the background the whole time. The moment a real match turns up, or your search period ends, you'll hear from Scout again.
View how Clutch Mode works
| Consecutive dry runs | What you receive |
|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | "Scout is still on the case" email (up to 3 total) |
| 4 | "Clutch Engaged" courtesy email (sent once) |
| 5+ | No further emails — Scout keeps searching silently for the rest of your tier |
| A new match is found, anytime | Leads sent immediately, and the streak resets to zero |
| Tier ends while in Clutch Mode | A closing email acknowledging the quiet stretch |
| Tier ends normally | Standard tier-ended email |
How is this different from just checking Craigslist myself?
Scout checks your local marketplaces on a set schedule — as often as every hour, depending on your tier — so you don't have to keep refreshing pages yourself. New matches are sent straight to your inbox the moment they're found, which is especially useful for time-sensitive or high-demand items where being first to see a listing genuinely matters.

Do you share or sell my personal information?
No. Scout Find It does not collect, share, sell, rent, trade, or otherwise disclose your personal information to any third party, for any purpose, under any circumstances — including marketing, spam, or resale. The only information we retain is what you provide in your Field Report (your search details, location, and contact email), and it is used solely to conduct your search and deliver your results. All payment information is handled entirely and independently by PayPal; we never receive, view, transmit, or store your card or banking details at any point.
How do I pay if I don't have a PayPal account?
You do not need a PayPal account to complete your purchase. At checkout, simply choose the "Debit or Credit Card" option instead of logging into PayPal — this lets you pay directly with your card, no account required. Your payment is still processed securely through PayPal's system, and only PayPal ever sees your card or banking information; we never receive, view, or store those details on our end. Rest assured, we do not collect, retain, or have access to any personal, financial, or private information beyond what you provide in your Field Report.

Is my payment secure?
Yes. All payments are processed securely through PayPal. We never see or store your card or banking information — PayPal handles that entirely on their end. What we receive is simply a payment confirmation and your Field Report (the search details you submitted), so we can begin your search right away.
