SwapSimple Launches Swapping Cart!




It's been months in the making, and today we have finally launched the first version of the SwapSimple Swapping Cart!

"So, what the heck is a Swapping Cart and why do I care?"

All very fair questions. Let me explain why this is so exciting:

You see, before the Swapping Cart, if you ordered more than one item from the same user at the same time, you still needed to have them shipped individually. This was wasteful because the Postal Service would charge a high fee for each package - regardless of how much it weighed. Now, using the new Swapping Cart you can bundle items together and avoid all those unnecessary fees!

For example - if you ordered three DVDs from the same user, you would need to pay individual shipping rates on each item. That would be a total of around $7.50. Using the new Swapping Cart, that same shipment will only cost you around $2.50!!

So if you want to save some major cash, and you find an item you want to order on SwapSimple, make sure to explore the other items that user has up for swap. If you find a few that you want, and you order them at the same time, the savings really add up.

We hope you get a lot of use out of this new feature, and of course, please share any comments, suggestions, or bugs you may find while using the new SwapSimple Swapping Cart.

Talk soon, and thanks for using SwapSimple!!!
