  • The market table is set up shortly after the meeting room doors are opened.
  • Sellers should place their items neatly on the market table.
  • Sellers may include a small sign of prices, or place price labels on your items. Include your name and call sign.
  • Sellers should watch their items and wait for buyers.
  • Buyers can make offers for items and negotiate with the seller.
  • When a deal is made, transact your business, collect your item/money directly with the other party.
