Swaptree: Bartering for the 21st Century

Submitted by Will on Sunday, 28 May 2006No Comment

Swaptree is a new website/ business that facilitates “swapping” (currently in beta). This site combines the barter system (the oldest economic system) with the latest web technologies.

To use Swaptree, the user will list a book, DVD, CD, or video game that they would like to trade. Swaptree will automatically figure out what items you could receive for each of your items.

Swaptree facilitates the trade of items that people no longer want - for items that they want.
