It's easy to trade and share inventory items in Second Life.
Finding what you want to give
- Open your Inventory by clicking the Inventory button at the bottom of your Viewer window.
- Scroll or search for the item you want to give someone.
 |
Note: If an item is marked (no copy), you'll lose ownership of the item if the other Resident accepts the transfer. Related, if an item is marked (no transfer), you'll be unable to give the item to other Residents. |
Giving to someone nearby
- Drag the item from your inventory onto the other Resident's avatar.
If they accept your offer, you'll see a notification in the lower-right.

Giving through an Instant Message session
If you have a one-on-one Instant Message session open with a Resident, whether they're a friend or not:
- Drag the item from your inventory onto the IM session window. It says "Inventory item offered".
|
Note: You can only give single items or 42 or less items in a folder, and this doesn't work with group IM sessions. |

If the other Resident is a friend
- Click Communicate button at the bottom of your Viewer window.
- Choose Contacts tab, and click Friends tab if it isn't already selected.
- Click a friend in the list and click click Profile button.
- Drag the item from your inventory onto the other Resident's profile. It can be dragged anywhere, not just where it says "Drop inventory item here."
Similarly, if the other Resident is in your Calling Cards folder but isn't a friend, you can double-click their calling card to show their profile, then do the above steps.
If the other Resident isn't a friend
- Click Search button at the bottom of your Viewer window.
- Choose People tab.
- Enter the Resident's name and click Search.
- If there's more than one match, click them in the list. Their profile appears on the right.
- Drag the item from your inventory onto the other Resident's profile.
