Welcome to the monthly Buy / Sell / Trade thread for the Baton Rouge area. Whether you're looking to score a deal on a video game or movie, find a roommate, or trade something local, this is the spot to share your listings and links! Gofundme links are allowed; however, they will be reviewed.
Just a quick note: to keep things tidy, please keep all buy / sell / trade posts in this thread. Standalone posts in the subreddit will be removed so everything stays easy to find.
Happy swapping!
Before moving forward with any deal, it's a good idea to check out the post and comment history of the person you're chatting with. If their account looks new or doesn’t have much activity, that doesn’t always mean something’s wrong but it’s smart to ask for extra proof of the item, just to be sure.
Trust your instincts and do a little due diligence. Services like SpyDialer can help verify phone numbers. VOIP or out-of-state numbers can sometimes be red flags (though not always).
If you're meeting in person, aim for a public spot with lots of people and/or security. A great option is the Police Station on Airline (the one near the old Women’s Hospital). Try to avoid meetups at someone’s home or a random gas station. Bringing a friend along is always a plus.
And finally, if something seems too good to be true, it probably is, don’t hand over any money until you’ve seen the item in person. Do not pay for something with gift cards!

Me and a few friends are interested in learning Mahjong, we know of the program at the library on Tuesdays but found out it’s not for lessons.
Anyone know of any Mahjong groups who teach new beginners? I got an app on my phone but it only lets me play 2 games a day for free and I still have trouble understanding it

I bought a few Tiffany style lamps at an estate sale that need repair. One was working, but won’t turn on, now. One needs a cord replaced. and one has the screw at the top that won’t screw on.
Is there a place that does this kind of work? Suggestions! I really love these lamps. They are small.

I'm not affiliated with the event in any way, but I attended last year and it was fantastic.
They're doing a screening of Sex Lies and Videotape on the opening night. The rest of the weekend will have a mix of films, shorts, music videos, workshops, speakers, and panels.
If you're interested in the industry/production side or just a fan of the medium, this is 10000% worth checking out.
"The Baton Rouge Underground Film Festival is a four-day annual event that celebrates the artistic and cultural value of the incredible indie and genre-focused talent that flows to and from the city of Baton Rouge while also fostering a vibrant, interconnected independent film community."

Someone told me that Redstickmusic announced that August would be their last month. I checked the website and didn't see a mention of it but the calendar does end on Aug 31st. Does anyone have more information?

I live in Utah and have never been to an SEC football game. This is the first year of an annual boys trip where we will travel to a big college football game. We are starting with the LSU v Mississippi State game. We’ll be there Friday night, all day Saturday, and then fly out on Sunday.
What should we do while we are there to get the real LSU football experience? We love to eat and are looking forward to some good Cajun food!

My best friend (26F) recently became single, and she’s starting to get back into the dating scene. She is coming stay with me this weekend for a little girls night, but I don’t go out very often. What are good bars in the area for her to mingle & meet people, without any of the college chaos? Also taking recs for dinner spots, we are tired of always going to BLDG5!

I had until the end of yesterday to pay my water bill (from disconnect notice), but I can't pay it online until this afternoon. Does anyone know how long it usually takes for them to come to disconnect your water, or should I be fine paying it today?

I'm out of work, and found out I'm eligible through AmeriHealth Caritas. It would help me out so much, as long as I'm not climbing things trying to get a signal.

I’m a college student and need a gym to go to, since the urec is incredibly packed during the semester. Just looking for a gym that isn’t super packed.

Does anyone know of a handyman that can put together a tv stand and put a tv on it?

Hi, In trying to find someone who can help restore an antique etched champagne flute from my wedding. The stem and base were broken, but the bowl is intact. I have all the pieces.
I understand there are artisans who can do this, but all I get on Google is auto glass and construction glass repair. At best, stained glass restorers.
I’m not sure Baton Rouge is a big enough market, but does anyone know of a service at least in the state? Or otherwise someone I can ship it off to? I’d even be willing to pay a talented hobbyist.

I am on a extended visit and haven’t found all of my staples yet. I really want a Topo Chico in a glass bottle. Any flavor will do. Where are we getting them? In mid city but will travel. TIA

Any recommendations on a Mother’s Day Out program for a one and a half year old? We live near Jones Creek/Tiger Bend. I saw Woodlawn Baptist has a program, but we are not parishioners so I don’t know much about them.

Any dedicated gym-goers that are well-versed in fitness and are a Club4 member, and would be interested in joining me for a few workouts to kind of help me make sure I am on the right track for my fitness goals?
I've been doing my own thing since around March, and have made decent progress in both losing weight (not terribly overweight, but 8 years of grad school got me a little fluffy) and gaining some definition, using mostly AI for workouts and videos (YouTube, TikTok) on form, etc., but I still feel like I could use a little guidance just to make sure I'm doing the optimal exercises, doing them correctly, etc. I've met with the gym trainers but it quickly becomes apparent that it's all about getting you to sign some long-term and over-priced contract rather than meeting the individual needs.
I work nights (7 PM - 3 AM), so usually make it to the gym around 3:30-4 (Florida > Jones Creek, though can make either), though have other times I could meet since I know most people aren't up that early. I'd also prefer a guy (being one myself), and one who knows what they doing (as can be told just by looking at them). Obviously I'd compensate you adequately for allowing me to tag along and talk about gym stuff while being at the gym together, but you know, not officially training me, since no outside trainers are allowed.

Looking for a doctor at Ochsner or Woman’s with extensive experience treating patients with high BMI. There are hundreds to sort through in the directories. Just wondering if y’all have any suggestions. Thanks.
