What is Swap-e-Shop USA?

Swap-e-Shop USA is a hybrid concept that combines the best features of E-commerce vendors like eBay and Amazon, with the best features of barter exchanges throughout the world, with an inventory of nearly $100 million of goods available. Swap-e-Shop USA offers a much larger selection of goods at a lower cost to customers than virtually any other supplier.

How does it work?

It’s really very simple. A customer contacts their local Swap E Shop associate and tells them what they want to swap goods or services at their retail value. The customer furnishes the goods or services and gets equivalent shopping points. The customer can then use the shopping points at the Swap-e-Shop USA. The customer can buy 1,000's of items or even just 1 item if they choose to.  At check out the customer only pays a 12% transaction fee. 

What kind of goods and services does Swap-e-Shop USA accept?

Almost anything, here are a few examples, a food wholesaler swapped merchadise, a clothing store chain swapped jackets, a regional appliance dealer swapped scratched and dented items, a fitness supplier swapped 20 high-end treadmills, a radio station swapped $80,000 of air time, a magazine swapped $25,000 of ad space. From a restaurant, we received $5,000 worth of gift certificates, an amusement park swapped $100,000 worth of admission passes, and a health club chain swapped $8,000 of annual memberships. People have swapped cars, boats, and property.  Services that can be swapped run the gamut including automobile repair, legal services, accounting services, construction, lawn care, travel services, web site design, vocational training, medical clinics, dentistry, moving and trucking, sign making, technical writing, and many, many more.

What happens to the goods and services swapped to Swap-e-Shop USA?

Unlike a barter exchange site, the customer’s goods and services are not normally listed on Swap-e-Shop USA web site. Rather, they are sold by Swap-e-Shop USA and its local associates to other businesses and customers which can create new business.

Here’s an example of how Swap-e-Shop USA works.

Say you are a distributor and have an overstock of $50,000 of slow moving items. The original cost was $20,000 but with SES you will be able to swap for $50,000 worth of new merchandise. You deliver your product  to your local Swap-e-Shop USA associate and get 50,000 shopping points for your merchandise. You then go to the Swap-e-Shop USA web site and immediately spend 4,000 points for tools and office supplies for which you pay a transaction fee of $480. Later on, you use the remaining balance of your shopping points to buy items you can sell, use, or give away. In total you have received 50,000 points in return for your slow moving underperforming asset. 

Another example

You are firm that provides professional services such as an accountant, attorney, hair or nail salon, plumber, electrician, interior designer, landscaper, massage therapist, or dentist. You can swap specific services or hours of service to Swap-e-Shop USA. You do not have to wait until your services are used before shopping at Swap-e-Shop USA. A few hours of your services in the future can be traded immediately for items such as jewelry, clothing, coffee, cosmetics, toys, pocketbooks, gifts, or even a jacket or sweatshirt with the logo of your favorite ball team for which you pay only a 12% transaction fee.
