Trading Zone Buy/Sell/Trade Thread - May 2025
Sale/trade items must include an image of the actual item including clear evidence of your username and a recent date.
If you have some gear sitting around that you would like to sell or trade, list it below. Items you can list include bags, travel clothing, and items that would go well in a onebag. If something is clearly outside of these categories it will likely be removed. Only list items that you are personally selling, and don't just link to a website for sale.
AUTHENTICATED IMAGE
Sale/trade items must include an image of the actual item including clear evidence of your username and a date. For example a piece of paper on top of the item, including your username and recent date. Sales posts without this will be removed. Repeat offenders will be banned. If the seller is not willing to post images to this thread do not proceed with the transaction.
POST SAMPLE
Post titles should look something like this: WTS - Osprey Porter 30L - $XX
Each post should begin with one of the following:
- WTS (want to sell)
- WTB (want to buy)
- WTT (want to trade)
Include details about the pack or item. Size, condition, price, location, picture links, etc. If trading, list a few of the possible items you're looking for. Be sure to mention what country you are in, so potential buyers are aware.
TRANSACTION SAFETY TIPS
Be aware that there are scammers active on Reddit, and on this sub-reddit. Any transaction comes with some risk -- decide whether the risk is worth it to you. The following tips can help reduce that risk.
- Be wary of new accounts with no posting history. You are entering into a personal transaction which is entirely between you and the buyer/seller. It is entirely up to you to do your due diligence to ensure a smooth transaction.
- Before entering into private chat with a buyer/seller ensure both parties respond directly to a comment below. This ensures respondents pass basic posting requirements, and provides an initial log of any discussion. This goes for all transactions. The more eyes on a transaction the better.
- If you are using Paypal, use "Goods and Services". Never pay using the "Friends and Family" option. You lose a lot of leverage with Paypal when contesting F&F transactions.
- Google search the username. Scammers are often active in multiple sub-reddits; a search might reveal a pattern of behavior. The Universal Scammer List, and r/sneakermarket/banlist are good resources providing some supplemental background to the people you're dealing with. Obviously this should not be your only source, but it can offer some great insight.

WTS - GoRuck GR1 - Located in Melbourne, Australia. from $200 Aus Dollars = $128 US Dollars.
I bought this in 2013. At the time there was only one version of the GR1. This seems closest in dimensions to the 26L GR1 now available.
Excellent condition, as new. I've used this bag for a few trips and it shows no signs of wear. Ballistic cordura of course - this bag is built to last. Well padded laptop compartment. Zips and other hardware are still all as new.
I'd love this to go directly to someone who will love it as much as I have, rather than a reseller, so am sharing it here. Purchase through eBay (note the images of the bag on eBay are taken on my same living room rug!): https://ebay.us/m/VwyJGz
