/r/longboarding's Weekly BUY/TRADE/SELL Thread - {{date %B %d, %Y}

  • r/longboarding and its' moderators are in NO WAY responsible for ANY issues encountered while Buying, Trading or Selling items.

Below is an example of a good post:

  • RAD Advantage 80a

  • 30USD

  • Location: Manila, Philippines

  • 74mm, 58mm Contact Patch

  • 8/10 Condition

  • NO Flatspots, NO coning

  • Slight chunking on the lip

  • Worn down to ~73mm

    As a SELLER:

  • Post your State/Country and where you are willing to ship to.

  • Post a description that accurately describes what you are selling. Be as descriptive as possible!

  • Post both the item condition, and pictures of the item.

  • Be prepared to answer questions about your items!

  • Update your thread when something gets sold, or is no longer available.

  • Be prepared to handle shipping arrangements. While it's perfectly fine to ask for extra cash for shipping, ensure you already know the approximate cost for anyone who asks.

  • Be careful with your personal information.

  • Once you've successfully completed the transaction, and your buyer has received the item, ask them to add you to the VERIFIED LIST

As a BUYER:

  • Respond to the seller's communication

  • Be truthful about your intentions. Nothing is worse for a seller than answering a whole lot of questions about gear, and then having a buyer drop off the map.

  • Be careful with your personal information.

  • Once you've successfully completed the transaction, and you have received your item, add your seller to the VERIFIED LIST

  • And some final suggestions to make this easier for everyone involved:

  • PayPal is the recommended way to transfer cash. However, the choice is up to you, and your buyer.

  • Please try to evaluate a fair price for your items. Secondhand prices are always hard to evaluate, but here are some tips to find a good price:

  • Take a look at online stores to work out the MSRP. Don't expect to make this unless your item is new.

  • Consider the wear on the item.

  • Consider the age of the item. Even if they're still in the box, 10 year old bearings aren't worth much...

    Happy Selling!
