Swap junk for gadgets

Advantages: Free stuff
Disadvantages: Can't write comments to other members

Swapitshop is a fun, friendly and safe environment for kids to enjoy as well as adults. The concept of the site is simple. Members can trade some of their old stuff such as books or DVD's or almost anything and other people can bid for them with swapits. Then you post the swap over and the swapits get credited to you. There are also lots of other ways to get swapits such as through magazines or clicking on things on websites. In my opinion swapitshop ...
...anyone else and all private information is kept private. Also it teaches youngsters about certain things on every day life such as how many stamps you need for a 300g parcel. Also any swaps containing any rude words are filtered out as are any selling current money. Swapitshop however, is an auction site where people spend swapits as opposed to money. Swapitshop themselves put a lot of swaps up such as Ipod Touch's, PS3's and even televisions all ...

Get something for nothing

Advantages: collect free swapits and buy goodies with them
Disadvantages: things can be expensive and auctions mean you dont always win

My son has been a member of swapitshop for a few months now and has only ever won one item. Thats is because although he has swapits, which are like credits, he has to bid for the items he wants and he always gets outbid. A lot of the items for sale need a huge amount of swapits so the only way you can get more swapits is by selling your stuff on the site or getting free swapit codes from magazines like kick, top of the pops, Jetix, Kraze or from ...
...you can get codes for free swapits but it won't be enough to buy a console game from swapitshop. If you sell an item on swapitshop you will have to post it to swapitshop and they will forward it to the buyer, which means that you have to pay postage twice because swapitshop ask you to include a postage paid envelope to post the item to the buyer. They now have a new way of getting swapits on the site by means of paying for swapits with pay-pal ...

Are You Actually Going To Give Me The Item ?

Advantages: lots of items, lots of memebers, dont have to give your address out
Disadvantages: no chat service, 2 stamps, people dont give you the item you won

I found swap shop about months ago as you will see from my ciao account this is not the first swapping site I have reviewed good news though this one is a lot better that the previous I have reviewed, and I am now using this as my permanent swapping site. Being under 18 and living with my parents I can not put things on ebay too much cash and risk involved and then I came up with the idea of swapping items so I searched it on google this was the ...
...Is SwapItShop? Well SwapItShop was created for kids and teens (but people of all ages use it) so they can list an item they want to put up for auction on the website then other users with points (That they have received from trading with other members) bid on the item. When the item has been won you post your item to the swapitshop centre (So you are not giving your address out to anyone, just the website) When you have points you yourself can bid ...

Money Free Trading

Advantages: No Money involved
Disadvantages: None

I have been a member of this site since I was about 14 and tens years on I am still using it so that must surely say something about how good I think it is. Swapitshop is basically what the name suggests, an online shop where you can swap items that you no longer need, however the term swap is not entirely accurate as you don't swap your items for other items. What actually happens is that you earn a swapitshop currency for the items you swap, known ...
...for other items that are listed on the site. The site is aimed at teenagers and that is fairly clear from the site design and promotions that they offer but there is no upper age limit for the site so I still regularly use the site as I feel it is more reliable than ebay and since it does not use real money the chances of being conned are very low. So what sort of things can you swap on the site? Well pretty much anything as long as it's not a ...
