I got scammed twice buying "used" electronics from strangers online before I decided to fix it myself.

Here's the problem with peer-to-peer selling: the second someone pays, all the leverage shifts. Buyer pays → seller ghosts. Or buyer receives the item → claims it's broken → keeps it AND the refund. Either side can get burned, and platforms like eBay/Marketplace mostly just tell you to "be careful."

So I built TrustTrade: a P2P marketplace where the money doesn't move until both sides are protected.

How it works:

1. Seller lists an item (individuals AND small stores can sell)

2. Buyer pays into escrow — funds held, not released

3. Seller ships/hands off the item

4. Buyer confirms it matches the listing → funds release instantly

5. Dispute? Our team reviews evidence before anything moves

No more "trust me bro" transactions. No chargebacks fights. No ghosting after payment.

First month is free for new Verified Sellers with code FREEMONTH if you want to list something and see how it works: https://whop.com/trusttrade-8c21/verified-seller-membership-6f/

Would love feedback from anyone who's been burned buying/selling online — what would make you trust a marketplace like this?
