Some Barter Sites For Trading Items

By Leslie Ball


Many times, our homes fill up with unused items since we do not know how to deal with them. Selling is usually the first option, but it comes with challenges such as losing value for the item sold. Therefore, the best solution is bartering; where you swap your items with other people's items that are almost of equal value. Bartering was used in the traditional days but has recently found its way back to the business market due its proficiency. The internet has even made it easier since you can trade your items with people all over the world without necessarily meeting them in person. We have listed some of the barter sites where you can exchange anything ranging from clothes to houses.

Zwaggle is an exchange site for swapping baby items like beddings, furniture or even toys. The site was formed by a group of parents with a vision of making acquiring baby stuff affordable and accessible. You do not have to pay any fees to be a member. Additionally, for every exchange, you earn points that come in handy for getting other items.

BabysitterExchange just like the name of the website sounds involves swapping neighborhood-level activities such as pet-sitting, babysitting and tutoring. Assemble a group of families whom you trust and know very well then sign up together for the site. From there, you can easily schedule how you will swap ordinary tasks like babysitting free of charge.

SwapStyle is an excellent exchange site for individuals who want to keep with latest fashion trends. You can swap cosmetics, shoes, clothes, accessories, handbags, and so many other things free of charge. ThredUp is another great website for swapping kid's clothes. Parents can exchange toys and clothes for children in different age groups. Signing up to be a member is free, and you just pay 5 dollars fro shipping and picking a box full of clothes.

PaperBackSwap is a place to trade paperback books and membership is free of charge. All you just do is list the books you want to trade, and other site members will get them. If an individual requests for your listed books, mail them and then choose the books, you would like to get.

Swap.com is a website you offer to exchange things you do not use anymore; there is no exchange of money or bidding. From the swap, you will be able to choose from a variety of items like books, CDs, movies and other things. The site service is free, but you will meet the cost of shipping the items you trade.

GoSwap is a site for trading houses permanently. To sign up is free but listing the houses to be traded costs around 9-270$. The site provides an option of listing house you want to exchange after which you look for a house then swap. The site is convenient because all you need to do is find a person to exchange your house with and then get your dream home.

In conclusion, there are certain things you ought to note before embarking on bartering online. Get to know how bartering works, its advantages and disadvantages and any tax prerequisites. Also, consider the values of the items you want to exchange; ensure they get you an item that has equal monetary value.
