The Trader

Guides

The short version of how the Trader works.

How trades work

The Trader shows people where to find goods and each other. You arrange the trade and the payment yourselves.

We don't handle transactions. Deals are between members.

The site takes no fees and handles no payments, no escrow, nothing.

How to list

Sign in with your email, open Resources or Good Finds, and post. A listing is one item or one offer.

Say what it is, where it is, and what you would take for it: cash, a trade, labor, or any mix.

Meeting safely

Meet in a public place and bring a friend.

For labor and other services: Services come with no guarantees.

What is not allowed

Firearms, Ammunition, Gunpowder, Primers, Illegal goods, Scams, Hazardous materials.

Listings in these categories are not offered as options and are removed when reported.

Selling a gun? Use a licensed dealer or a pawn shop.
