FSOT?

Is there still a forum where mama's can sell/trade used goods?

[Cynthia Mosher]

Yes indeed! The MDC Trading Post

You can read the guidelines here.

Thanks. I'm still having a hard time figuring out where to post though. The WHAM board seems to be for businesses and I'm not doing a co-op either. Where should a mama with used diapers and slings post?

[Cynthia Mosher]

The MDC Trading Post includes the Co-ops forum and the WAHM Market but it also holds a number of forums where members post to sell their personal items. Here's the list. You would post the diapers to Diapers & Diapering Supplies and the slings to Babywearing.

The Trading Post

• ›Babywearing
• ›Birth and Baby Supplies
• ›Children's Clothing
• ›Clothing for Adults and Maternity
• ›Crafts
• ›Diapers & Diapering Supplies
• ›Homeschooling
• ›Natural Home & Body Care, Household Goods and Electronics
• ›Toys, Games, Books, Music and other Media
• ›Miscellaneous
• ›Canada Trading Post

I'm still missing something. I can only see the WAHM and Co-Op lists under the trading post and the links you gave don't work for me. How would a navigate to those areas?

To help troubleshoot.... Have you purchased one of the Trading Post Subscription options explained in the guidelines link below?

I haven't purchased a subscription to sell yet, but I should still be able to view the forums as a buyer, right?

[fullofgrace]

I was just ruling out a purchasing issue as a potential problem, since that's something I can't access. This I can help with, though!

The Trading Post is one of our forums that requires 60+ days of registration (which you have) and 50+ posts (which you are close to) to be able to view it. You're very close, so jump in some conversations and you'll be there in no time! Other forums will open up for you when you hit 50 posts,too - Talk Amongst Ourselves and Parents as Partners, for example.

Posting new threads in the forum actually requires a paid subscription ($1 for one week, $5 for six weeks) unless you are a Supporter or Advertiser. Supporter and Advertiser subscriptions include Trading Post capabilities. But, the entire forum is free to view after 50 posts and 60 days.
