What should I check before swapping a bicycle?

Confirm the brakes, gears, and tyres are functional, note the frame size, and mention any wheel truing or chain wear — bikes are one of the higher-value swap categories, so accurate condition detail matters more here than most.

Do camping and hiking gear need to be cleaned before swapping?

Yes — tents, sleeping bags, and cooking gear should be dry, clean, and free of mould before listing. Damp gear packed away for months is a common (and avoidable) complaint.

Is it safe to swap used ski or snowboard boots?

Check the liner and buckles work properly and mention the size in both UK/EU and mondopoint if you know it — ill-fitting boots are the single biggest reason ski gear swaps get returned or disputed.

How do I list gym equipment that's heavy or bulky?

Be upfront about weight and whether it needs a van or trolley to move, and prefer local collection over posting — most gym equipment swap fails happen when delivery logistics weren't agreed first.
