GearTrade Rules
Post Body

Before posting, familiarize yourself with these rules! If these are not followed, your post will be removed.

Banned User List: in progress - make sure a user can comment on your post or they may be already banned.

Buying/Selling:

  • Your post title needs to be marked with the proper tag. There are only 3 proper tags. The tags are: [WTT] = Want to Trade, [WTS] = Want to Sell, [WTB] = Want to Buy. You can combine them as well, e.g. [WTT/WTS]. Our automoderator will remove all posts not formatted this way.
  • Please include with your post:
  • Price of the item(s).
  • Personal pictures of the item including a timestamped photo showing your username and the date (Month, Day, and Year). Timestamp must be within 30 days of posting. Timestamp cannot be electronically added (must be written out and placed into the photo).
  • Description of the item.
  • Size and gender of the item, if applicable.
  • If your post does not meet these criteria it is subject to deletion. Imgur is a great option for pictures.
  • We recommend you use PayPal's "goods and services" option for payment. This ensures you are offered full buyer/seller protection from PayPal at a mere 3% cost to yourself. If you use Friends and Family, you do so at your own risk, forfeiting these protections. Please read and follow the Paypal terms of service regarding this fee. **Venmo also offers a good or service transaction protection at a small fee.
  • Linking to external for sale sites is not allowed. In order to remain here a post or comment must meet all the above criteria and be catered to users of this sub.
  • Crossposted items must meet all the GearTrade rules (verification photo, ect…).
  • When your item sells please edit your post flair to Sold or edit your post to add the comment of [SOLD] which will update the flair automatically.
  • Low effort [WTB] posts will be removed. Please include a clear description of the item you are looking for and a price you are willing to pay.
  • NO GIFT CARD POSTS! Gift card sales are too hard to verify, simply put. No gift card or coupons sales on this sub.

Etiquette:

  • If a user responds through private message, please ask them to comment on your post. Banned users cannot post or comment but they can read the subreddit and send private messages/chats.

  • Comments that are purely critical of pricing (and clearly demonstrating no desire to purchase the item) will be removed.

  • Rude, derogatory, or off-base comments will be removed and may result in a ban.

  • Comments with referral links to amazon or any other site will be removed and may result in a ban.

  • Any users that routinely post to /GearTrade, please consolidate multiple posts by the same user into one post per day or up to 5 posts per week (rolling previous 7 days period).

In terms of mandatory rules, that’s it. Here are some tips that we’ve seen help move items quickly.

  • Understand market prices. Please do some research and realize that anything second hand, even new with tags is subject to depreciation.
  • Post multiple, high quality clear pictures, and note any damages. Factor damages into your price.
  • Post a clear, detailed description, and share why you are selling the item.
  • r/Reppit is a good resource for buyer/seller feedback. If you are happy with your transaction, leave some feedback! There is also a stickied thread on the GearTrade feed with monthly sale verification posts.

Feel free to reach out to the mod team of r/GearTrade with questions, concerns or any issues that may arise in your transactions. We are here to help.

Thanks!
