Neighbourly Market is the perfect place to sell or give away items you no longer need or want. For easy trading, we recommend creating a new listing for each item.
Your neighbours can then private message you to discuss your item and arrange a trade, using the 'Message Seller' button on your listing. Please note: You will not be able to see this button on your own listing, but this is normal!
