Ebay for kids

Advantages: not real money, for people of all ages
Disadvantages: double postage,

The swop it shop is an auction website desgined for kids, in my opinion it is almost like an ebay for kids. Basically what you do is sell is put an item up for sale on the site and like ebay you can choose to put it up for auction or put it on buy it now. However, unlike ebay it doesn't cost you anything to put items up for sale on the site. And once you have sold it you earn swapits which is currency which you can only use on this paticular site. ...
...earned to purchase things from the site. Also if you don't fancy selling something on the site you can buy swapits using cash, however you can't convert your swapits back to cash. There are a couple of downsites to the site though you have to pay double postage as you post the product to the company who own swapitshop and they post it to the person who bought the product off you. Also it is quite unlikely that you will find the exact product that ...

Quick review of swapitshop.com

I loved it and my children love it more. They have traded so much stuff, exchanging all the unwanted toys and presents and actually getting stuff they want. And for the first time, my 9 year old son is beginning to think of the value of possessions. swapitshop.com has helped him realise that his stuff is of real value and he ought to look after it. ...

Swapitshop? Should I join or not?

Advantages: Free stuff
Disadvantages: Postage

Swapitshop (Under 18's) - Sell things you don't want for things you do. I have been using this site for over 2 years now and I love it. It's amazing, you can buy anything from pokemon cards to a new xbox 360. The only cost is postage and packaging which, is slightly cofusing as you have to add the address of swapitshop on the package and then the member number, swap number and then you add on two stamps (one to get to swapitshop and one to get ...
...I ain't selling anything but, instead I joined something called Swapitshop Friends and Links. This allows me to post a link to swapitshop on my site: www.swapitshop12.piczo.com so, I can get swapits easier. Instead, of using money for things you use swapits. When a standard member joins they get 10 swapits to start off with. (But, if you click the link I posted above you can get 15 swapits). The ranking system For the ranking you are either one ...

SwapitShop - An eBay World For Kids

Advantages: Large range of items available to buy, free to swap your items, easy to use.
Disadvantages: Have to pay double postage, there can sometimes be scams about so be careful.

SwapitShop - "Things You Want For Things You Don't". www.swapitshop.com I've been a member of this website for almost two years now. Basically SwapitShop is a website aimed at 18's and under where you can sell items you don't want in exchange for points called Swapits. With these points, you can then bid on things you DO want that other swappers are offering! Each item up for 'sale' has a auction style bidding feature very much like eBay, and ...
...can win the item straight away for a set amount of Swapits. Unlike eBay however, it's free to list your items! You can swap most things, but some items are restricted due to the main users of the site being children. Items disallowed on the site include food and drink, sexually explicit items, items that are dirty or broken...you get the idea. Although the site is AIMED at children though, there is absolutely no restriction on adults using SwapitShop ...
