Buy and sell IT equipment, simply and safely

How it Works

IBCSC Market is open to all IBCSC members: the account is the same as on IBCSC Jobs. Posting an ad is free; it remains online for 60 days and can be renewed.

Each category has its technical specifications (socket, capacity, form factor, battery condition…). The more complete it is, the more your ad appears in filtered searches.

• Fixed price, offers (auction), negotiable, exchange, or donation
• In-person collection, shipping, or "Pay & Ship"
• Integrated messaging, favourites, and email alerts
• "Wanted" ads to state what you want to buy

Pay & Ship

The seller links their Mollie account. The buyer pays with Bancontact or card; the money arrives in the seller's account, IBCSC never holds the funds.

The seller sees the delivery address, sends the parcel, and provides the tracking number. The buyer confirms receipt. Without action, the sale is completed 14 days after shipment.

In case of a problem (lost parcel, non-compliant equipment), the buyer opens a dispute. The IBCSC team reviews the communications and may decide on a refund.

Safety Tips

The vast majority of exchanges go smoothly. A few habits can help avoid unpleasant surprises.

• Keep your communications within IBCSC messaging; beware of anyone wanting to switch to WhatsApp or email.
• Never click on a "payment link" received from a stranger: on IBCSC, payment is initiated from the ad button.
• Never pay by bank transfer or cryptocurrency to a stranger for a shipment.
• Test the equipment in person: startup, disk SMART, memory test.
• Sellers: securely wipe your disks (secure erase, reset) before selling them.
• Report any suspicious ad: a human will verify it.

Professional Accounts

Resellers, refurbishers, and IT services registered with BCE can switch to a Pro account from their area. The IBCSC team verifies the BCE number and displays the "Verified Pro" badge.

A Pro account displays its company name, website, and can indicate "VAT deductible" on its ads. Legal obligations for consumer sales (warranty, right of withdrawal for distance sales) apply.

Marketplace Rules

Prohibited items include: stolen or dubious origin equipment, disks still containing data, software licences and keys, counterfeits, accounts, personal data, and illegal intrusion tools.

Ads that don't comply with these rules are removed; repeat offender accounts are suspended.

Promotion Options

To sell faster, promote your ad. The amounts finance the operation of the ASBL.

Service fee on "Pay & Ship": 3 % of the amount paid, deducted by Mollie. No commission on in-person sales.
