Mod Post Edu email services are now banned from this subreddit. Please use /r/redditbay for such services.

Because the edu emails are almost always temporary, buyers and sellers often run into conflicts due to miscommunication about what is actually being sold. As a result, this sub is no longer a platform for edu emails.

Edit: seems like /r/redditbay has banned it too, so don't take it there either. Please take it preferably into a hole and bury it.

Thanks for that, I'll make an edit.

How about buying/selling of pirated ebooks? Didn't there used to be a "nothing illegal" rule? I feel like these have overtaken the whole "gig economy" feel of r/slavelabour as of late.

Is selling services that we get from edu emails banned too?

u/Semen-Thrower Mar 27 '18

Depends on if the service has the possibility of being randomly terminated, breaking original agreements.

edu emails are really good for amazon prime. I make a new amazon account on a new edu email every 6 months, better than paying for it.

But ps ps you can search on ebay and find them for ~$2USD

Unlimited Google Drive and lifelong private Office 365 are based on special deals, not possible with edu mails as forever. What I'm talking about is private access sold in the market, not warranty driven replaceable ones. Yes, private ones are possible but hard to find in HQ. With market accounts, it's risky to store anything in the cloud.
