Review of www.swapz.co.uk

Advantages: Quick, Easy & Free to use.
Disadvantages: Some people can over value their items.

This website came recommended to view by a colleague of my partner, so far it has been nothing but excellent. For those of you who are not aware of what this website is all about, here's a brief idea. Buyers and Sellers of unwanted goods can registar for free and list any item, you can swap for anything, and i mean anything - from CD's to Houses (yes someone actually listed their house to swap!!!) Similar to eBay in that you can search for what ...
...i would say that the people found on here are more trustworthy than those of eBay, mainly because they also have something to sell. We recently swapped a 2.5 Litre Nissan Skyline for a 2 Litre Toyota Celica - the owner of the Celica travelled to us in Portsmouth from Kent, looked at our car, took it for a test drive and left with the car. Easy!!! Unlike eBay you are also not charged to list your items. It's definately worth a look if you've got ...

Has AnyOne Been Here In The Last Year ? On Purpose

Advantages: There is a wide range of items, it is all filted well
Disadvantages: People Not Having Consistancy, People Not Wanting Consistancy With The Site

Online selling,buying and swapping is getting bigger and bigger and Swapz boasts about it being the leading in the swapping market. I signed up to swapz 3 month ago, that may not seem a long time but in that time I have experianced the good, the bad and the ugly on this site. So Firstly What Is Swapz? Swapz is an online trading site what I mean by that is you can put onto a classified website an item you want or an item you are wanting to get rid ...
...rid of your old designer handbag, you paid £100 for it and you dont see why you would not get that same amount back for it because of its amazing condition. So you list the product in the Swapz section of the site and you list what you would like for the product maybe a new handbag, some make-up, perfume. Then if someone see`s your handbag and wants it they will often contact you via a type of email on the website called Swapz Mail they will tell ...

Will you swap with me?

Advantages: Swapping with other people who want what you have
Disadvantages: Can be dodgy swapping through the post

Swapz.co.uk began life in 2002 and has a massive following. The site has 2 main categories "Swapz" and "Wantedz" which are self explanatory. Split then into different categories within each ranging from Antiques to Toys and Games. A lot of swaps done on this website are mobile phones. By clicking on the "Swapz" link it takes you to the category list and beside each category (in brackets) is the number of swaps listed in that category. For instance ...
...1814 swaps available from Sim free phones to contract phones, accessories etc. **Registration** To carry out a swap on the site you need to first register of course with all your details, i.e. your address, telephone number and a username and password. Once you are registered you can then start posting your "Swapz" or "Wantedz" on the site. **Posting a Swap** This is very easy and straightforward. Once registered you have your own member area ...

Dodgy

Advantages: A good idea in theory
Disadvantages: sending goods un-safely through the post

Anyone can register without proof of who they are. I know this because I have been ripped off twice, and I have only used it twice. Swapping is just not a safe way to trade unless members are verified, which means paying. Also members use any old email address then dissapear. I found the load up times slow. There seems to be alot of items, but the majority are not wanting to swap even for excellent swaps. This leads me to believe that the site is ...
