Is there, or, if not, would a buy, sell, trade section be something for the forums?
For Runescape, we got section in the forums Jagex makes where players can post threads where they can ask for and/or offer their things in game. Like "I got a dragon long sword for sale, for X amount of coins!" or "Has anyone a Bandos shield for sale?" etc.
Was just wondering, and all.

There is a trade channel in game though.
But the exchange would be the easiest way to find any items you're looking for.
I'd assume Runescape does not have an exchange, perhaps that's why they needed a forum section for it.
When I used to play Diablo 2 we had the same problem, no exchange. So people would make a bunch of trade rooms, announcing what they were looking for. Its an inefficient way of doing things, but worked for its purpose if you had the time to browse.
Anyway, the trade channel in STO usually only deals in items that cost more then the cap. So it's uses are limited.
Runescape has an exchange, for nearly 10 years. Thing is, sometimes stuff ya wanna sell never sells, I had tons of sale expired. And the forums of Runescape allow players to contact each other directly without needing an exchange.
