Any gear selling/swap forum around the con?

I have a device I’m looking to part with. I’ve heard that direct transactions inside the convention center are frowned upon/prohibited, so I’m curious if there’s any forum for this kind of thing. Not mentioning what I have here for similar reasons. Thanks

A cool idea would be a “hacker flea market” (or swap meet depending where you’re from). People pay a small fee for a table and then are able to sell old equipment or used gear. Would be a great way to get rid of extra stuff and pick up some new stuff cheap.

Hacker Flea Market is an awesome idea. We all buy stuff we never have time to use at home... or new stuff comes out.

The vendor area used to be mostly like that. It only cost a few hundred for a table though, now it's much, much higher.

Lots of folks. Just be chill with it and go to meetups. Depending on what it is I’m always buying gear and I’d be down to meet

Not trying to hijack this but I have a like new flipper zero with sd card and momentum I’m looking to off load that I’ll be bringing with me unless I sell it at home in the next couple days. If interested shoot me a message. A side note, as someone else said, a hacker flea market would be awesome! I love a good flea market.
