SwapitShop - An eBay World For Kids 20/11/2007

User recommends the product

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 some items also have a 'win now' button where you can win the item straight away for a set amount of Swapits. Unlike eBay however, it's free to list your ... more

Swapitshop.com Vs. Swaphut.com 24/04/2001

User recommends the product

Advantages Lots of chances to swap. Can take advantage of swapit system
Disadvantages Can you trust an anonymous person, and their stuff.

Swapitshop Vs. Swaphut - A definitive guide. So, I think I would be right in saying that these two sites are pretty much the main sites where you can swap things. But which is best? Firstly, here’s the deal with swapitshop.co.uk, and those of you who want to know more about Swaphut can go to my Swaphut opinion. On Swapitshop the system is slightly different to just a straight swap as with Swaphut. It works more along the line of an online auction where you put your item up to stay for a week, but instead of working with money you get points called ‘swapits’ which you can ... more

Swapitshop - IMPORTANT NOTICE 09/04/2001

User recommends the product

Advantages get rid of old stuff, easy to use site, the middleman
Disadvantages young children, reliability - is now closed

Please read bottom of opinion for update... I have been using Swapitshop for a while now, have experienced both sides of the site, so here is my story... Firstly, you must register. You log-in with your email address and a password, but your bids are shown by a nickname. Good, do not want people having my email address, although it is on Ciao…different. Two minutes later you must start thinking about what you can do. Well, not a lot really. If you start looking for things, you will find that you cannot have much! So, what you must firstly do is look through your CD rack, bookshelf, toy ... more

Swapitshop 27/02/2005

User recommends the product

Advantages Get products you want for things you no longer want, no money/bank details involved
Disadvantages none!

Swapitshop is a great website for kids and teenagers, which allows you to bid on products using a virtual currency called Swapits. ****How do I gain Swapits?**** You first set up an account and recieve a small number of swapits. You use the add a swap button and put anything they don't want onto the websites, by adding it to the relevant product category, and choosing the type of product that it is. You are able to set a minimum starting price, and a close now price(which ends the auction straight away) The product gets added after a few minutes. ****What are Swapits Worth?***** Swapits do not ... more

Advantages Great for kids - safe auction site
Disadvantages Not enough members in my opinon

Did you hear about the American guy who started a journey into the world of swapping? He started with a paper clip and now has a house! Well this review is not about him but about a UK website swapitshop.com. As the website title says 'swap it'. Swap what? You may ask. Well on this child friendly website: swapitshop.com you can list items in any of the following categories: Books Cards Collectables Ga dgets Games Movies Music S port Stationary Style Toys Vouchers Un derneath the categories there is a section titled 'FRENZIES'. These are from what I can gather a list of items you can bid on ... more
