Bartering

[AllanY2525]

I think a bartering forym on this board is an EXCELLENT idea!

One of the things that makes this country great is our free capitalist society and free trade, etc.

I'm all for putting a bartering board on this forum.

There is also a bartering and free section on Craig's List.  http://www.youngstown.craigslist.org

Should we put a barter board on this forum?

Freecycling is not the same as bartering.
Technically the list does not allow TRADES of any kind.
If you do, you will be scolded.
It is all giveaway.
They do allow discussion of services offered on their companion bulletin board

There are other lists that do allow trading.

To cope with high prices and the lack of good-paying jobs, some residents are going to establish a bartering system to exchange services and goods.  If interested, sign up at the bartering table at the North Side Farmer's Market on Saturdays starting July 15.
