The "Trading Post" program, a community service for residents looking to buy, sell, or give away items, continues to air weekdays, providing a platform for local exchanges. The program is broadcast between 11:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m. Community members wishing to participate can call in during these times using the phone numbers 701-774-0306 or 800-238-0306.
The Trading Post operates with specific guidelines to ensure fair access and appropriate listings. Callers are asked to limit their submissions to three items per call, and participation is capped at three calls per week. The service is strictly for non-commercial ventures, meaning no business solicitations are accepted. Additionally, certain categories of items are not permitted for listing, including real estate, mattresses, and firearms or ammunition. For individuals unable to call in during the live broadcast hours, messages can be submitted through the 660 KEYZ News Radio Facebook page to list items. Townsquare Media and 660 KEYZ News Radio clarify that they are not responsible for the quality or condition of any items bought or sold through listings on the Trading Post.
