Can you promote in r/baseballcards?

Share baseball cards and collectibles, pulls, news, memorabilia, funny stories, cards for sale or trade, and absolutely no ebay auctions.

The short answer

If replying as a founder, be transparent about your affiliation, keep messages relevant/helpful, use the Sale/Trade flair or monthly thread, include required info (price, image), and avoid external links or overt advertisement.

What works here

  • Posting cards for sale/trade using the sub's required format (price + image)
  • Participating in discussions and answering questions
  • Using the Sale/Trade flairs/threads for offers

What gets posts removed

  • Linking to external shops/ebay/discord or posting outside sales links
  • Unsolicited advertising, recruitment, or promotional posts outside allowed threads
  • Posting sales without price/image or bypassing pinned post rules

Where this comes from

No external sales/ebay

Sales must follow pinned format

All 'for sale' posts must include a starting price within reality and an image; use the pinned post style.

Use filters/threads

The sub provides Sale and Trade filters/threads indicating where such posts belong.

No overt advertising
