Online Marketplace for Dickinsonians | Dickinson Market

红杏直播app values sustainability and prioritizes and promotes reuse of goods and sharing of skills and services within the Dickinson community. The DsonMarket online community was designed to support the buying, selling and trading of goods and services by Dickinson students, faculty and staff. Built and maintained by Dickinsonians, for Dickinsonians. We aim to create a safe, inclusive online marketplace where you can save/make money, reduce carbon emissions and interact with others in support of sustainability at Dickinson. This platform is intended for the buying, selling or trading of personal items, not college-owned property.

This free online platform is supported by the Center for Sustainability Education, but was built and maintained by Dickinson students who saw a problem and created a solution using a combination of academic knowledge, technical skills, networking, and determination.

The has been an amazing asset to our community, but there remained a need for an online platform for Dickinsonians to safely buy, sell and trade items such as appliances, dorm room items, electronics, bikes, etc. A collective team of students and staff worked together to create DsonMarket, an online community and platform that safely allows for these exchanges. DsonMarket requires a dickinson.edu profile to enter, which ensures you are communicating and exchanging with Dickinsonians, only. The below guidelines explain the community standards within this platform.
