Hi everyone, I'm a newbie. *waves* So yeah, SwapTree. So far as I can gather, it's like user-to-user NetFlix for books, games, and movies, except you get to keep the end product forever if you want. You have game A, but you want game B. So you use their automated system to find someone who has game B, but wants game A. And then the site prints out shipping labels once it's confirmed and you've paid for the postage, which it computes automatically. At least this is how I understand it. I intended to start using it for book swaps a while back, but forgot about it entirely, and I was reminded when contemplating the dismal trade-in price I'd get at GameStop for Dragon Age: Origins, which I just finished playing, versus how much a new game would cost. But I dunno, it's a lot easier to render a game unplayable than it is to render a book unreadable, plus games are a lot more expensive than books, so... I was wondering if anyone had ever used it before.
