Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Include timestamp/photos and use persistent chat for transactions; many listings are CONUS-only and community emphasizes verification to avoid scams.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, discussion, news
Title begins with a bracket tag ([WTS]/[WTT]/[META]) + concise item name and price/condition. Write in first person (I/I'm), include timestamp/photos, price, shipping, payment methods, and clear “No trades/CONUS only” notes. Body is moderate length, transactional and factual; posts with clear pics/timestamps and honest condition get upvoted; vague listings or no proof-of-life get flagged/removed.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/edcexchange's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
