The Real Story
Why USM Market Exists
I got tired of the noise. Selling stuff on Facebook meant dealing with lowballers, fake accounts, and people who aren't even from our campus. It was a massive headache just to sell an old textbook.
So I built this. Market@USM is our walled garden. No outsiders. No bots. Every single person here had to prove they own a `.edu` email. If you're buying a calculator or a dorm fridge here, you know you're meeting a real student by the library or the main gate.
This isn't some corporate startup project—it's just me trying to make our college lives a tiny bit easier.
Zero Outsiders
Verified university emails only. Period.
No Algorithms
No ads, no algorithmic feeds. Just the newest stuff listed by your classmates.
