In a perfect world this would work! However you have people who think what they have to swap is worth way more than what you have to swap and so they won't swap. Than you have those who don't log in and your swap times out. Forget about asking for help from The Powers That Be, they either don't care or are not there! Then we have the site glitches themselves, which in my case was the system telling me an item was no longer available yet it was, this seemed to be the case with many people, but our cries for help both on the forums and to the webmaster went unheard...so I gave up All in all I tried for about 4 months and in all that time made 2 swaps. Good Luck and wear your patience hat when you try out this site. Jen
