Swaptree.com is this fantastic site that I've been using for awhile. It's super easy to use. Here's the skinny on how it works:
1. Go to swaptree.com and sign up for an account.
2. Go to the left side bar where it says add items you have and type in the ISBN # of the item you'd like to swap for something else.
3. If someone is wanting that particular item already a screen will come up telling you what items you could swap it for.
4. If you see something you'd like you just click the button that says get now
5. A new screen will pop up that will show you who you'd be swapping with and where they live plus you'll be able to see what they're rated (this is a lot like ebay)
6. Click the button on the far right that says get this copy and you're on your way
7. They will initiate a trade with the other user and that person will decide if they want to swap or not.
8. If they do you'll get an e-mail saying the trade was accepted and to print your shipping label.
9. You can print off a label at home without using their shipping. It's usually cheaper to just go to the post office.
10. That's it! You send your item to swap and you'll get yours in the mail. The only cost is the shipping. I've been stocking up on all kinds of items for Christmas.
The best part is that swaptree does all the work for you. You can also make a list of items you want so when there's a possible swap they'll let you know. You can always check back at the site to see what items you can swap for as well. It's a great FREE swapping site. Where else can you get a DVD for $1.82??? I can't even find that at garage sales!!
