I feel like there’s a category here missing a bit, and I was wondering if others feel the same:
I’ve got a lot of working hardware at home, which got replaced by other things and I won’t be needing anymore. But they are in working conditions.
I don’t really feel the need to charge anything for them, and would love to give them to other Home Assistant users in the area.
Maybe a category in this forum would be a good starting point for such “give away for free” offerings, so we can dust off some stuff we admittedly just have lying around and take part in reuse, repair, recycle?
Having a Buy/Sell/Give-away forum category has been discussed before and it was decided not to proceed with this as it would be more likely that this would be interpreted as an “official” marketplace with all the legal ramifications that involves.
You are fine to post a link to an external buy/sell/give-away site here in the Social category as long as you make it clear that the sale/give-away is in no way associated with the Home Assistant organisation.
Also make sure to include locations you are willing to ship to.
And thanks for the reminder. It’s time to clear out my “unwanted items” shelf again.
