🧭 The 5-Step Barter Flow

  1. Find an item you love. Look for listings with the “Barter This Item” button.
  2. Click “Barter This Item.” Tell us what you’d like to trade (a brief description + optional photo/link is perfect).
  3. We review your offer. You’ll get an email with an accepted ✅ or declined ❌ response.
  4. If accepted: We’ll email you a secure Shopify invoice for any barter fee and/or shipping. Checkout collects your shipping address safely.
  5. Ship & swap! You’ll receive shipping instructions. Once both items ship, enjoy your new find. ✨

📦 Fees & Shipping

  • Shipping: Covered by the customer. If your offer is accepted, you’ll receive a secure invoice with the exact amount.
  • Barter fee: A small platform fee may apply and will appear on your invoice when relevant.

🔒 Privacy & Safety

  • No address needed on the form. We only collect your shipping details after your offer is accepted—during secure checkout.
  • Trade only with items you can ship within the stated timeframe.
  • If anything feels off, contact us and we’ll help.

📝 Pro tips for a fast “Yes!”

  • Add a clear description of your trade item (brand, condition, size/measurements if relevant).
  • Include a photo or link to your item (optional but recommended).
  • Be flexible: you can offer more than one item or add a small cash top-up if needed.
