Buying & selling at Lamar

Campus details for Lamar students.

Lamar's campus is walkable and most students are either living on it or right next to it — so a handoff is usually just "I'll be outside Setzer at 2."

Every account is verified with a Lamar email, so you're always dealing with another Cardinal. No shipping labels, no meeting strangers off campus.

Textbooks at the end of a semester, a futon someone's leaving behind, a mini fridge, a bike, tickets — if it changes hands on campus, it belongs here.

Help & FAQ

Common questions from Lamar students.

Is this only for Lamar students?

Each campus is its own marketplace. You'll only see listings from people who verified with a Lamar email address, and they'll only see yours.

Does it cost anything?

No. Listing and browsing are free, and we don't take a cut — you handle payment directly with the other student, however you both prefer.

Where should I meet to hand something off?

Somewhere public and central. Setzer Student Center and Mary and John Gray Library are the easiest — busy, well-lit, and everyone knows where they are.

What if nobody's selling what I need?

Post it on the Looking For board. Other Lamar students can see what's in demand, and you'll get notified when someone lists a match.
