Classified listings catered to college students - awesome niche market. Mix high costs of college textbooks and furniture with an early adopter crowd and you get a demand that must be met. And it’s met with vigor - introducing Dormitem.com.

Dan Scudder and the team at DormItem have taken the next step in classified listings (similarly to Edgeio)…they integrated Rapleaf into their classifieds site for college students. How awesome is that!

On the East Coast, DormItem is a powerhouse in college classifieds, especially at places like Babson College. And we’re excited that they’ve chosen Rapleaf as their feedback system. Colleges have been big propopents of DormItem. Maybe it’s because they have the word “Dorm” in their name? Hmm, maybe. But maybe it’s because they promote a safe environment and effectively use feedback, via Rapleaf, to create a trusted marketplace. Yeah I think that’s it!

NOTE: We’re all for increasing safety for college students who transact in and around campus .
