Bartr protects you...

Both traders put down a deposit

Each person commits upfront, so both sides have real skin in the game before anything ships.

Nobody gets paid until both sides confirm delivery

Funds stay protected until the trade is complete and both traders verify everything arrived as agreed.

If a trader backs out, disappears, or misrepresents an item, Bartr steps in to help make it right.
