Code of Conduct

Check all items for condition BEFORE you pay! If item is electronic, make sure it works. Meet somewhere you can plug it in or have a car adapter to test it. Once money is exchanged, the sale is final!
DO NOT pay if item is not in the described/working condition. If this happens, please report to admin.
Do not, for any reason, try to renegotiate the price after you have agreed to buy the item.
Always bring correct change when meeting. Do not expect the seller to have change. Do not try to short change the seller because you did not bring the correct amount of cash.

All posts must have a picture of the actual item with a specific price, unless you are looking to buy something. For multiple views, you can combine them into one picture before you post or add extra pictures in the comments. Only one post allowed per item.

Do not post multiple items in one photo unless they are only sold as a lot.

Describe items Fully & Honestly: Price, Size, Condition, Brand (if applicable,) Pet/Smoke Free, Location, and if posted in other groups (PIOG). It is helpful to list the size of clothing and shoes in the Title.

Duplicates not allowed! Choose one category only. If found both/all will be removed!

Posts will be deleted if they are not about buying or selling specific items with prices. The only exception is yardsale posts.

We are here looking for good deals so prices must be yard sale prices, not near the new item price.

We do not allow items listed as "no hold" or as "respond by text only."
