@Monica.Ciovica (Monica) posted a new topic, subject "New 'Market' category > Giveaway". It read:

   Hi all,  
    First of all - Happy New Year 
    
    As part of the ‘new year - new adventures' spirit, I wanted to let you know that we created another subcategory for the ‘Market', which we hope will encourage/help people share FP parts/materials they have > #market:giveaway
    
    After the recent FP t-shirts discussion that some of you have seen, after talking with my colleagues at Customer Support - which told me about receiving over time customer tickets that want to know how they can just giveaway FP products, and seeing the ‘giveaways' listed in the ‘sell' category, I felt it would be good to have a dedicated space for such practices.  
    I hope this will not only help people in need, but also create a tighter community.  
    Please let me know if you have any objections/remarks/improvements for the category.
    
    Have a lovely day,  
    Monica

    Should this category include **swaps**?

After which, @Monica.Ciovica (Monica) added

    Good question! Possible to include that in the description or edit the name to ‘Giveaway/Swap'. Would that be too much? Also possible, we can make a separate category ‘Swap'. This way the ‘Market' covers all possibilities. What do you think?

After which, @paulakreuzer (PaulaToThePeople) added

    I actually had a similar idea these past days, how about #market:trade besides #market:sell and #market:buy?

@Monica.Ciovica (Monica) replied

    I would still keep a **sell** or **buy** reference to make sure there is a distinction between posts for profit and the ‘giveaway' for free. ‘Trade' might create confusion between paid and not I'd say.

@paulakreuzer (PaulaToThePeople) replied

    Yeah, you're right. Trade is not very distinctive.  
    Then I'd go with:
    
      * sell
      * buy
      * giveaway
      * swap

So @Stefan (Stefan Brand) replied

    _This topic was moved from a hidden category because we would like to make all forum members aware of the new category#market:giveaway._
    
    I'm also _pro **swap**_.
