Keep it routine
It’s a simple idea: make local exchange feel like a natural part of everyday life.
- We lean toward third places — cafés, libraries, markets, climbing gyms, and other spots you already go.
- Fitting a meetup into your usual routine keeps handover light: less special-trip energy, more everyday flow.
Have fun, Stay safe
- We may suggest places on the listing, but the final meetup location is agreed after the sale — in messages, between the two of you.
- Suggested Oppy Exchange Points and free-text tips are ideas to get you started, not locked venues and not partnerships (unless specifically stated).
- Prefer a public third place when you can.
- Inspect the item in person before you accept it. Once the exchange code is confirmed, handover is final — there are no post-exchange disputes.
