Let's Make a Deal (abbr. LMaD) is a ROBLOX sub-forum dedicated to discussing trades and making deals with other users. LMaD has over 37 million total posts and around 5.6 million threads. This makes it the most popular forum on ROBLOX. Let's Make a Deal is located under the Club Houses category on the ROBLOX forums. Like the Clans & Guilds forum, LMaD receives a heavy amount of criticism because of the fact that a large portion of its threads are off topic. The main purpose of LMaD is to buy and sell Limited and LimitedU items for the best prices possible. In Let's Make a Deal, players often barter and negotiate trades and the prices of the Limited and LimitedU items. After deals are negotiated, players use the Trade System to buy and sell the items. Another large item of discussion on Let's Make a Deal is players setting values for many items, both new and old. Many non-limited deals also take place in LMaD, including group selling and exchanges between items/ROBUX and real money, despite being against the rules.
