About
A local marketplace that grew up on Facebook.
AV Buy Sell Trade started in 2010 as a small group of Antelope Valley neighbors wanting a cleaner alternative to the usual classifieds. More than a decade later it's grown to 62,000+ members and is still run the same way: moderated by people who actually live here, free to join, and local to the valley.
The fast-pass program exists for one reason — new join requests used to sit in a queue for weeks. A one-time payment lets a real moderator pick up your request inside a defined window. That's it. No subscriptions, no listing fees, no cut of what you sell.

What guides us
Three things we hold tight.
Local
Every member is an Antelope Valley neighbor. Pickups happen minutes away, not three hours up the freeway, and the listings reflect what people actually need in the valley.
Moderated
Real moderators review every join request. That keeps the bots out, the listings relevant, and the group a place members want to come back to.
Fair
The fast pass is optional and one-time. You never pay a subscription, we never list your items for you, and we never take a cut of what you sell.
