Introduction:

• Not all peer transactions go smoothly—share a funny anecdote (e.g., “I bought ‘vintage’ jeans… with holes in the wrong places”).

The Do’s:
✔ Ask for Measurements – Avoid “fits small” surprises.
✔ Meet in Daylight – Dorm lobbies or cafés > dark parking lots.
✔ Use Secure Payments – PayPal Goods & Services, not cash.

The Don’ts:
✖ Skip the Inspection – Stains, smells, or hidden damage happen!
✖ Fall for Scams – Reverse image search if photos look too professional.

Real Student Stories:

• A positive experience (e.g., scoring a designer jacket for cheap).

• A cautionary tale (e.g., receiving a stretched-out sweater).

Final Advice:
“Trust, but verify—your wallet will thank you!”
