We know firsthand how difficult it is to buy and sell used skydiving gear.

As skydivers, we have been in the situation trying to buy used skydiving gear. Finding gear is like searching for the needle in a haystack due to how specific the equipment is. And even if we get lucky, and find the right gear on Facebook, buying said gear comes with huge risks of fraud.
