The previous trading threads were quite lengthy and/or not being utilized. So in a effort to clean things up a bit, all trading will now be done here.
PLEASE READ THE RULES & GUIDELINES PRIOR TO POSTING
Trading is UNOFFICIAL and not supported by SC
ALL forum rules apply. Click here to see the forum rules.
Proceed cautiously when trading, as there is always the possibility of something going wrong, intended or not. You have NO recourse should this happen.
To make trading a smooth process know your preferred method of contact. > you may use PM (private message here on the forum) > or a messaging app such as Kik (many players use this one) > ALSO you will need to have your FARM TAG NUMBER (this is found in the in-game friend book)
> DO NOT EVER GIVE YOUR FARM ID NUMBER - that is a different number found elsewhere
POSTING
> Know the proper names for the items being traded. (We may get used to calling items different names within our NH, so this will avoid any confusion)
> List the item(s) you are trading and the ratio for the item you want to receive (1:1, 2:1)
> Include your contact information - kik ID etc
> DO NOT USE THIS THREAD TO CONVERSE ABOUT A TRADE, ie “PM sent” “kik sent” etc.
> When the trade is complete, you may EDIT your original post to read “TRADE CLOSED”
**a note about PM - you must wait 60 seconds between sending another message. Also, keep your mailbox under 50 messages or change the default to not save sent mail
COMMUNICATION IS KEY
1. Exchange Farm Tag numbers or FaceBook names - include your player level and your farm name
2. Know what the “signal” is that you are at the other players RSS, i.e. 1 wheat for 1 coin.
3. Decide on who will start the trade.
HOW TO TRADE
1. Be sure you have adequate space in your barn for the items you will be receiving
2. Agree on the number of the product being exchanged and the ratio. Some items may be more scarce so expect to give more of something else to get these. This changes from time to time.
3. Try to make sure that neither party has an active advertisement at the time of the trade.
4. Use the last slot of your RSS to place your “wheat” & items for trade
5. When that wheat is purchased, you should see the name of the person you are trading with. (If taken by a different player, stop the trade, and try to communicate with the other party immediately)
6. Immediately, put up the items being traded as previously agreed upon.
7. Should the wrong item be put up, try to buy it anyway. You can try to trade it back when current transaction is complete.
8. Once, this is done, it will be repeated for the other party.
ONCE THE TRADE IS COMPLETE
Be sure to thank the other person if the trade was successful. If something was amiss, be respectful and try to come to an equitable resolution immediately. Once the trade is complete you may edit your advertisement to read “TRADE CLOSED”.

Edit: Please do not contact me with promotional purposes. No, I do not want to give you BEMs for free! No, I do not want to join your neighborhood! These are the problems that come with getting your post on the first page of the discussion, haha. Those who are guilty have been blocked.
