How does selling work?
1. POST
Posting is simple! You'll first add photos, describe your item, and set your price.
The most important part of this step is selecting the correct university/college the items belongs to as these items will populate on the specific campus page.
Your items will then be seen to all individuals who have indicated this to be their institution or soon to be "home" (incoming freshman).
2. SELECT MEET UP ON CAMPUS OR SHIPPING
Once the transaction is complete, we'll release the meet up or shipping location based on the set preferences.
We highly encourage the pick up location to be in a public location (preferably on campus).
If shipping, you will receive a prepaid label to your inbox. All you need to do is package the item.
After packing up your item, schedule a free package pickup, leave the package with your mailwoman, or drop the package off at any USPS (post office) location or collection box.
All items ship via USPS (i.e. the post office), the lowest cost, fastest way to ship in the US.
