Find a nearby listing. Set your ZIP, pick a radius, browse cards being offered locally. Trade-only listings won't show a price - they're barter.
2
Message or send an offer. Use Message to ask questions with no commitment. Use Send offer to lock in a price the seller can accept, counter, or decline. Both open a chat in your Inbox.
3
Agree on a meetup. Pick a busy public spot - a game store, coffee shop, mall. Confirm the card, condition, and any trade-for cards in chat first so there's no surprise.
4
Meet and make the trade in person. Look the card over before anything changes hands. If it doesn't match what was described, walk away, no pressure - that's the whole point of meeting up.
5
Seller marks it sold, both leave reviews. After the trade, the seller marks the listing Sold from Account > My Listings and picks the buyer. You'll each get a card in the chat to leave a review (or flag it if it wasn't you). Reviews build your local reputation and can't be faked with one-sided confirms.
Payment note: Local deals aren't processed through the site - Dragon's Claw doesn't handle the cash or hold funds. Cash, Venmo, PayPal Friends & Family is on you two. That means no buyer protection - inspect carefully before handing over money.
Safety: Meet in public, bring a friend if it's a high-value trade, and use profile reviews to vet who you're meeting.

This creates a message thread and an Offer record the seller sees in Account.
Local “Buy” is a checkout-intent placeholder (Stripe backend later). Meet-up logistics still happen in messages.
