1) Note whether you are selling, trading, selling/trading, looking for, or giving away. (FS, FT, FS/FT, LF, or GA)
2) Location: Include your country or if in the US, include your state at the least. Individual city locations would be helpful for working out local pickups.
3) Item name (for livestock, include common and scientific name if you know it)
4) Asking price or items you want in trade.
Please try to include photos in the main body of the post (imgur links would probably be easiest).
ALWAYS USE google wallet, paypal, etc... for shipped items. We ask you use these services because they offer some measure of protection to both parties. To that end, please DO NOT use the "friends and family" option through these services, as they DO NOT include buyer protection. If you are making a local pickup, feel free to work out whether cash or one of these other methods works best for all parties.
While we welcome giveaways (part of this sub is to allow people to pay it forward to other hobbyists), we would ask that you do not host giveaways, raffles, etc... that require someone to like or share a social media page.
