Since this is federated and quasi-anonymous, there isn't and never will be a dispute resolution department. Both seller and buyer must take extraordinary measures to prevent scamming. That's why I highly recommend local pickup/exchange. Meet in a busy public place and wait for the funds to clear your wallet before you let the person walk off with your gear.

A community for the sale/trade of any kind of gear. You can also post "Wanted To Buy" posts as well. You may NOT use this community to sell retail/wholesale.
Posts must begin with one of the below
WTB = Want to Buy WTT = Want to Trade WTS = Want to Sell
Please note in your posting if you have successfully made a sale/trade/buy.
Pictures of your item is mandatory and will GREATLY improve your chances to sell your item.
This community is for posting and discussion of buying, selling and trading your gear. Posts seeking commentary, or pricing, or deeper discussion about gear one is intending to buy that is not listed in this community is not permitted. That belongs in a related community. The mods of this community are not responsible for disputes between sellers and buyers. If you think someone is scamming you, they probably are. Be paranoid and take measures to protect yourself from scammers.
Please read the posting rules below -
If you're a seller, please indicate what type of currency you'd like to receive for your item. Since we're in the fediverse, maybe you want to use cryptocurrency? That's totally fine but please take precautions to make sure you're not getting scammed (or worse).
Do not hotlink your post to E-Bay, Craigslist, retail or similar type of sites.
Posts must have a description and a picture of the item(s) for sale, including one with your username and date or they will be removed.
Your post should follow something similar to this -

I would say the best way to handle BST type of exchanges would be for in person as well. However, going back to basics and utilizing feedback sites such as heatware would likely be the way to go if deciding to ship things. I wonder though, if heatware will allow for some form of "transfer" of feedback from reddit in some way.
That along with referencing the universalbanlist as well.
I like the way you think. I will transfer the community to you.
I moderate too many communities and this one should be a pretty active mod role.
