MOD Important: New Marketplace Rules, Video Timestamps & Payment Changes

83 Upvotes

Hey r/HomeLabSales!

We are introducing cleaner and stricter marketplace rules to help combat AI-generated timestamps and improve trust and safety for all transactions.

Timestamp Requirements - Effective Immediately

A valid timestamp must include:

  • Current date within the last week.
  • Seller's Reddit username

Video Timestamp Requirement

All sales posts that are valued at $400 or above must now include a video timestamp.

The video must meet the following requirements:

  • Show all items being sold, including multiples of the same item.
  • Clearly display the timestamp throughout the entire recording.
  • Show the seller rotating each item and changing camera angles while both the item and timestamp remain visible.
  • Be unedited and recorded in a single continuous take.

Additional Photos

Any photos included beyond the required timestamp video must also contain the same valid timestamp.

Exception: CDI/CrystalDiskInfo screenshots, SmartCTL reports, and other diagnostic/specs screenshots captured directly from a computer screen do not require a physical timestamp.

Note: The moderation team cannot manually review every timestamp. If you see a suspicious or invalid timestamp, please report it.

Approved Payment Methods - Effective Immediately

For all online transactions:

  • PayPal Goods & Services, also known as PayPal G&S, is the only accepted payment method going forward. Please report anyone not using G&S or is requesting any other forms of payment to ship goods.

For local, in-person transactions:

  • Cash, PayPal Friends & Family, or other mutually agreed payment methods remain permitted.

Posts requesting or requiring alternative online payment methods for online transactions will be removed.

Shipping & Responsibility

  • Sellers are responsible for accurately describing the condition of all items.
  • Tracking information must be provided promptly after shipment.
  • Buyers should inspect items promptly upon delivery and report any issues to the seller as soon as reasonably possible.

Rule Violations & Enforcement

We understand these are new requirements and want to provide the community with a short adjustment period.

Beginning July 1, 2026, these rules will be enforced strictly and consistently.

Potential enforcement actions include:

  • Post removal
  • Temporary bans
  • Permanent bans for repeated or intentional violations
  • Marketplace restrictions at moderator discretion

These changes are intended to protect both buyers and sellers and keep the subreddit safe for transactions.

Please let us know in the comments if you have any feedback. As always, you can also reach out via modmail.

Edits:

After reading through the comments, we understand that video timestamps maybe a hassle for smaller value items, so we’re keeping the same rule active currently, i.e. anything over $400 value will require a video timestamp.

Also, you will NOT need a video timestamp if you’ve got >10 trades on your account.

Our main goal was to curb posting by completely new accounts and to avoid AI generated timestamps. The influx of AI generated pictures and scammers has gone up significantly.

[LabB0T] Monthly Confirmed Trades Thread - October 2026

3 Upvotes

Confirmed Trades Thread - October 2026

When a successful trade, sale, or purchase has been completed, post one top-level comment describing what occurred. Use one of these formats:

Failure to adhere to this format will result in the bot letting you know the trade could not be parsed, or it may be completely ignored. If your trade is not parsed within 1 hour, please delete your comment and try again. If you still cannot get it to parse, please send a modmail.

Do not edit your comments. Once your trade is read, whether it is parsed or not, it will never be reprocessed.

When your trade is successfully parsed, the bot will reply to your comment with a message indicating the trade has been logged. The following will then happen:

Trade Confirmation Flow

  • LabB0T picks up the trade and successfully parses it.
    • A confirmation link will be sent to the other party via Reddit message/chat notification.
    • LabB0T will reply to the top-level comment indicating the trade has been logged.
    • In the event a Reddit message/chat cannot be sent, the trade is declined and the bot will post a reply explaining what to do next.
  • The other party will need to follow the link sent to them via Reddit message/chat notification. The link will take them to https://trades.labb0t.org/ where they can confirm the trade.
  • Once confirmed by the other party, the trade will be marked as verified in the backend database.
  • On its next tick, LabB0T will see the trade has been verified.
    • The flair will be updated for both users in the subreddit.
    • LabB0T will edit its existing reply in the trade thread to indicate the trade has been confirmed.
    • The status on https://trades.labb0t.org/ will be updated to reflect the trade has been completed.

Important Notes

  • Only one trade should be mentioned in each top-level comment - multiple items still constitute a single trade if the receiving party is the same.
  • Do not edit comments.
  • The other party must have allowed chat requests from either, all users, users whose account age is greater than 30 days, or u/LabB0T to receive the confirmation link.
  • If the bot's pending reply has not been updated after 30 days, the trade has expired and should be re-submitted if needed.
  • Do not submit or confirm trades until the items are received.
  • Each user can only confirm a trade once (no self-confirmations).
  • As of the v3 rewrite (this version), you may comment whatever you like in the trade thread so long as it is a reply and not a top-level comment.

Public Ledger

The v3 rewrite of this module has brought with it a public ledger of all trades. This ledger is available at https://trades.labb0t.org/.

By using this system, you agree that your Reddit username and trade information will be publicly displayed on the ledger. You cannot opt out of this. The ledger/verification system as a whole has been built to be an auditable, transparent system. No nefarious tracking or data collection has been implemented.

I understand some of you may not like that a third party service is being used for this now, but my goal for this was to remove as much from Reddit as possible. Reddit's standpoint on the API continues to be hostile towards third party apps/developers and my skills are better served using something that works well and not fighting this platform.

Need Help?

If manual review is needed, please send a modmail with as much information as possible.

Thank you for all those that waited patiently for this new system and offered their help.

Clearing out my old Proxmox cluster. 3x HPE ProLiant DL360 Gen9 1U, all the same core spec:

- 2x Intel Xeon E5-2687W v4 (12C/24T each, 3.0GHz), 24C/48T total

- iLO4 with Advanced licence

- HPE Smart Array RAID controller

- 2x hot-plug PSUs

- No RAM (needs DDR4 ECC RDIMM)

- Some SAS drives included while they last, plus free caddies or blanks for empty bays

All tested working, drives securely wiped, no OS or licences.

One unit has a dead Smart Storage Battery (727258-B21). Works fine, just no write-back cache until you replace the battery. That one is cheaper.

Pricing:

- £139 each

- £125 for the dead-battery unit

- All 3 for £375

Collection from Kingston upon Thames (welcome to see it power on), or I can courier anywhere in mainland UK at cost (about £35, double-boxed with foam).

Also have 2x SK hynix 16GB 2Rx8 PC4-2666V RDIMM at £55 each if you want some RAM to get started.

PayPal G&S, cash or bank transfer on collection. PM me, no chats please.

Feeling like I got deal of a lifetime and pulled the trigger on a still on warranty one .

I don’t know the Mac Studio market anymore and wondering what a fair price for one a HomeLabSales discount would be should I just turn around and sell it .

I know the new M5 is going to be $18k+ on minimum storage with much better speeds .

Also any information on how I increase decode would be amazing if possible . ( I don’t know if M3 is even EGPU capable ).

Thanks in advance !

US-W [FS][USA-CA] New Western Digital 15.36TB Ultrastar DC SN840 NVMe SSD

0 Upvotes

Have a brand new and sealed Western Digital 15.36TB Ultrastar DC SN840 NVMe SSD (P/N: 0TS1881) that I’m looking to sell for local cash.

I’m located in the San Jose area in California. Would prefer to meet at a bank to confirm legitimacy of cash and will travel to a halfway point unless you’re really far, then you’d need to come closer to me.

I'll ask $3500 because I'm required to list a price on here, but make me a REASONABLE offer.

I'm seeing other brand new ones being sold for between $3500-4000 on Ebay (https://ebay.io/m/Z1t1C8)

And other distributors have them listed at $5000 (https://serverpartdeals.com/products/western-digital-ultrastar-dc-sn840-wus4ba1a1dsp3x5-0ts2065-15-36tb-1-dwpd-pcie-gen-3-1-x4-4gb-s-3d-tlc-u-2-nvme-2-5-ssd?variant=51180788973846)

US-E [PC] KingSpec P3 4TB 2.5" SATA SSDs

1 Upvotes

It's my first time selling on here, so I’m hoping to get a better idea on fair pricing before I make an actual sale post.

I have a few KingSpec P3 4TB 2.5" SATA III SSDs in their original container, They are open box but essentially unused, they all read as around 0-1 power on hours, 0gb read/write and no drive health problems. I will provide the individual CrystalDiskInfo screenshots for each drive when I make the sale post.

KingSpec isn’t as large or as commonly traded as brands like Samsung, and I wasn’t able to find much existing price data for these specific 4TB P3 drives to go off of, so I wanted to get a better idea of what they're worth.

What's a fair price for these? And also what would a good local sale price be as that is how I would prefer to sell them.
