Adding a Barter Section in the Classifieds

Recommended Posts

The likelihood of two people each having something the other wants, and of comparable value, seems rather slim.

Seems like the best course of action is to sell what you've got for cash, and then use that cash to buy what you need. That's why we have money as a common medium of exchange. It bridges the gap between dissimilar items.

Old timey doctors may have taken a chicken in trade for their services from their country patients, but after a while, they've already got enough chickens and need a new car.

I think anyone who's willing to accept items can write it in the description, and anyone who's willing to offer can also make a deal.

I feel adding a barter section will make things overly complicated.

Adding a wishlist to individual profiles sounds like a much better idea, also good for gifts
