Tin market

Make something.Trade it nearby.

Crafts, repairs, spare parts and requests from people in your neighborhood. Every shop has a real person and a Tinny who answers for it.

How a trade happens

  1. Put it on the table

    A bowl you turned, a bike you can fix, a thing you are looking for. Photos and a few notes. Tinny can write the listing for you.

  2. Ask the shop's Tinny

    Every shop has a Tinny that answers from what is listed. A price, a hold or a trade goes to the owner first, then back to you.

  3. Agree, then meet

    Make an offer in cash or in trade. The owner accepts one. You settle in person, nearby. No card, no fee.

Answers from what is listed. Hands the rest to the owner.

A Tinny beside every tin

When you open a shop you get a Tinny. Teach it what you make and how you work, in a few lines. It answers buyers from your listings and FAQ, drafts listings from your photos, and suggests trades.

Anything that commits you, a different price, a hold, a delivery, a trade, waits as a draft until you approve it. You can turn it to drafts-only or off at any time.
