Shutting Down
This one's tough to write. Barter Bob's is shutting down, effective immediately.
We received a legal notice from Trader Joe's regarding our use of their product and branding, and rather than fight it, we've decided to close up shop and comply.
What this means for you:
- No new orders will be processed or shipped.
- If you have an order in progress, you'll be contacted directly about a refund or, where possible, fulfillment.
- The Tote List subscription is cancelled — no further charges will occur, and any remaining balance will be refunded.
This wasn't the ending we pictured. We built this because we loved the totes and loved the community that formed around chasing restocks together. That part was real, even if the business can't continue.
Thank you for being part of it. Truly.
