What happened to the old Trading Post on MDC?

[laurabfig]

Hi everyone-
I've been an MDC member for at least 5 years i think, but have been inactive for a while....what happened to the trading post section? I remember doing swaps and diaper trades when my kids were little and it was so fun.
Is it still here but I'm missing it somewhere?
Thanks!

Hi! Welcome back!!

The TP is at the bottom of the page, but access has changed. I'll C&P the info from the FAQ for you.

Members wishing to sell items will need to purchase a Paid Subscription. These are the following Subscriptions that you can purchase in order to sell items:

• Trading Post One Week Access for $1
• Trading Post Six Week Access for $5
• Supporting Membership III – 1 year for $30

Hope that helps! If not, there is more detailed information in the FAQ in my signature, too.

You're not the only one that missed it! I did a search for Trading Post after finding it and being really bummed that nothing is there! It was my hang out for so long. Friendships were formed there. Ahh....the good 'ol days. My youngest has been out of diapers now for 4 years. I'm trying to get my sister talked into using cloth and I came here to browse the TP and see what people were using these days. So sad.....

I missed the access information too. I haven't been here in a while . . . I was here a LOT when I had my little boy and was breastfeeding and had a lot of time to surf the web. I just started a new business and was looking for the Trading Post section. Thanks for asking the question so I could also get the answer!
