Guest Post: Bartering Through Swaptree

Today’s guest post comes to us from Sharon, who uses Swaptree to barter with people across the US.

About Sharon:

I host a blog, Here’s What I Found. I love to find great deals and share them with my friends and family. I am a mother of 3 small children and live in KY.


Do you have DVDs, CDs, books or Game system games you no longer want? For the price of shipping (media mail is super cheap -usually under $2 for most items) you get a new dvd, cd or book you want and you clean out your closet!
We’ve completed over 70 swaps since we first joined and have had really good experiences with the people involved! Win -win for everyone! It’s fun to think that we ‘swap’ stuff with people all over the country! If you are interested in getting rid of them and swapping them for something you do want, here’s what you do!
  1. Sign up at swaptree.com
  2. Gather your stuff you want to get rid of.
  3. Create your account – no credit card required of course!
  4. Just type in the upc or isbn number of the item in the box
  5. Swaptree will automatically bring up the picture and description of item
  6. You tell what kind of condition the item is in
  7. Once you have listed all the things you have…. it’s time to find the items you want
  8. Type in the search box the item you would like to have
  9. Click on ‘want it’
  10. Then comes the fun part. – Swaptree will match you with someone who has what you want and wants what you have
  11. you will get an email asking if you want to ‘accept this trade’.
  12. You type in your password and say accept
  13. Then you mail your item to them and they mail you the item you want.
This is a great way I snag really cheap Christmas or birthday presents!
