swap section?
AndyW - 22/5/11 at 03:07 PM

Just thinking, would a swap section be any use? We all have stuff to sell and buy, and was wondering whether any one would swap things rather than trying to sell. Ive seen numerous posts about things free to collect, or free and pay postage.

So it occured to me, we all have things sitting around gathering dust, car related or not. So why not offer to swap? Then someone might get rid of an old computer (for example) in exchange for parts for their build?

I know there would be logistic issues with postage, but if we have some sort of gentlemans agreement of postage at cost, then we could all benefit.

Im sure that virtually every member has something they done need, and again every member needs that something, if you get me???

I hope this is a good idea, although bring on the non-believers!!

Anyway, I need loads of bits for my car and have little or no cash so swaps considered. Maybe put a list of items you have and people can pick off what they need.

Great idea in my opinion.

Could save a lot of hassle of selling something then having to buy what you want. Can help each other out a little

Havnt got a spare plenum but I am happy to give you a hand with the loom. you have u2u.

I think its a good idea, I for one am fedup with chancing it on ebay and getting charged through the ring piece. I know ebay is a service but the fees are getting silly.
