The Campus Marketplace
Students sell with a verified school email. Everyone else can browse and message. Textbooks, dorm gear, and campus events, all in one place.
Listing requires a verified school email, and your board is scoped to your own campus. Non-students can create a free account to browse and message, but never to sell.
Point your camera at the barcode on the back of a textbook and the title fills itself in. Set a condition and price and it's live.
Furniture, tech, decor, fridges, and a dozen more categories. Add up to three photos and pick which one leads the card.
Message any user with the listing pinned to the top of the thread. See whether they're online now or when they were last around.
Save the ISBN for a book nobody's selling yet. We'll notify you the second someone on your campus lists it.
Not a student? Pick up to three nearby schools and shop their boards. Don't see your school? Request it and we'll email you when it's approved.
Use your school email to buy and sell, or grab a free account to browse and message
Scan a textbook's barcode or snap up to 3 photos of your gear. Filter the board by category, price, and payment type
Message directly with the listing pinned to the thread and plan your on-campus meet-up
Swap in person, settle up with cash, Venmo, or Zelle, then mark it sold from the chat
Students see their own school's board. Non-students see only the campuses they choose to follow
DormDeal never sits in the middle of your sale. No marketplace fees eating your textbook money
From move-in to move-out, find everything you need for campus living
