Before contacting someone
- Read the complete description and look for inconsistencies.
- Be suspicious of prices far below the local market.
- Keep early communication inside Teton Marketplace.
- Ask for a fresh, specific photo when something feels unclear.
Before paying
- Inspect the item, title, serial number, or work credentials.
- Do not send gift cards, cryptocurrency, deposits, or verification codes under pressure.
- Confirm the legal owner and use a written bill of sale for high-value items.
- Verify licenses, insurance, permits, and references for regulated work.
Meeting safely
- Use a public, staffed location when the item permits.
- Bring another adult for high-value, remote, or after-dark meetings.
- Tell someone where you are going and when you expect to return.
- Leave if the item, location, or person does not match the listing.
Report quickly
Use the report control on a listing or email erinnsebay@gmail.com. For an immediate threat or emergency, contact local emergency services rather than waiting for marketplace moderation.
