If you choose the ‘swap or trade’ category when marketing your item, then please say what you would like to swap it for…this option is particularly good for trading cards and collectables.
For example, you could collect football cards, be a Barcelona fan and really want the ‘Messi’ card… and you have other football cards of players for teams you DON’T support to trade for him. Or you could collect Beatrix Potter china characters and have two Peter Rabbits but really want a Squirrel Nutkin… so you put Peter up for sale and write that you want Squirrel Nutkin, And what about your Pokemon cards? Are you missing a few?
Local collection is a great way to swap or trade trading cards/other collectables with others in your area. By meeting up with someone you can both bring all your items that you are willing to trade, to see if there are any other exciting options for swapping.
At the moment, you can only swap items if you live near to someone, because we do not offer a postal swap. You can, of course, both BUY the items you like from each other’s shop, rather than swap!
