- Tribe is not the best place to seek to recover the full costs or value of items. Instead, Tribe is more “thrift” than “shop”.
- boyMomstt.com serves sons and their moms, exclusively. We wanted a space or a few lanes just for our boys.
- you can also use our platform to sell from your small business too, at a an low monthly cost.

- Quality images. Images should be as clear as possible. Please take pictures in natural lighting, and against a white or clean background. Avoid tablecloths, bedsheets, the floor etc. We prefer clear backgrounds and clearly displayed pictures of your items.
- Patience. We ask you to be patient with yourself. We are not rushing you to navigate the website or become experts. We have hired experts for that! We only ask that you give it a chance.
