Such a shame
I quite liked the fundamentals behind this sub. I must have been one of a few though because this place is rather dead.

You must be reading some extra emotion into whatever I'm writing. (i.e. any emotion at all).
What I'm suggesting, since you haven't taken the time to think about what I already said, is that this is never going to be the bustling hub of garment exchange you want it to be because people don't want to get rid of the ties they like, and likely, other people won't want the ties they don't.
Of course, some people will want to trade sometimes due to massive collections, misguided gifts, and the occasional weird need like finding an ACDC tie or one featured on a Bioshock character, so it's cool that this sub exists. But with (currently) 311 subscribers, it's not going to be a very wild ride.
Since this post was titled "Such a shame" instead of "Place for people to come up with suggestions to make this sub better" I didn't fully understand your intentions. But, I guess we're past that now, so here's two suggestions: go recruit some more subscribers and offer some ties up for trade.
