Name: Westshore Mom’s Swap ‘n’ Shop Medium: Facebook Location: Public place or seller’s house Length of Sale: N/A How it works: Type a comment with “Next” or “Interested” below an item you wish to purchase. Then, send the seller a PM (private message) and arrange a pick up time. First come, first served sales are not permitted. The seller adds a comment that the item is PPU (pending pick up) and then either marks the item as sold or available to the next person (if it didn’t sell). The seller must contact the buyers in the order they comment on the item. Pros and Cons: You can set up notifications. Therefore, if you’re looking for a child’s outdoor slide, you’ll be notified as soon as one is posted. The seller decides how long to wait to hear back from the buyer, but the official rules recommend 24 hours. Depending on your Facebook notification and message settings, it’s possible to miss seeing PMs from people. You can also post items you are ISO (in search of) or discussions such as childcare recommendations.
