SwapitShop accounts :/Can someone just explain me what SwapitShop accounts are? I obv know their SwapitShop accounts. But are they SwapitShop accosiates? Or members of SwapitShop themselves.

basically they are accounts made by swapitshop themselves usually to bump up prices in frenzys | ||

Ohh right. So i take it, that any swapper that sends stuff that arrives the next day is SwapitShop? Or extremely rich for paying for special delivery EVERY day o.O | ||

i bought some games of swapitshop, recieved by them the next day and i recieved them 2 days later. |

Not really.... If you posted something before 5pm (usually), and it has 1st class on it, more often than not, it will get there the next day. Like, I have just sent a box of swaps 1st class recorded, that should hopefully get there tommorow, so it doesnt have to be special delivery to get there next day... special delivery just means that it is guarenteed to get there next day, 100%, or you can get compensation. It is also insured if the package gets damaged or lost, up to about £150. It's the safest way to post something, and is recommended for consoles etc, and money, and high value items. 
And just to confirm, a Swapitshop account is known as an account which is owned/created by swapitshop, or old inactive accounts which swapitshop have control of, and they either use them to put up the prices in there own frenzys, or they sometimes use them to the users advantage by listing loads of swaps like dvds or games (used ones), or bidding on swappers auctions, so its not only for their gain.. it is mostly to make the site look even more active and busier, to encourage more swapping etc, so there not always a bad thing. |

right i understand why they bump up prices but why do they buy members items what do they do with the stuff | ||
| Thecookiemaster |
They probably sell it back off to be honest o.o | ||
| lambojack |
yea they sometimes sell the stuff they buy of us on ebay | ||
| Thecookiemaster |
Haha, wouldn't surprise me. Selling it on ebay.. pff. | ||
| Yxz |
Yep, theyll probably keep it stored away for around 6 months or so, so you forget you sold it, and then sell it back on there with one of their swapitshop accounts lol, which you can buy back at a fraction of the price

yeah thats what i thaugh tbut id like to see it actually happen.
funny story i once baught two wii games red steel and zelda off of somebody sealed and they red steel got to me but zelda didnt and i was ringing up for weeks asking and then all of a sudden in a totally unrelated frenzy that had books in poped up a sealed zelda game. i then rang them again and asked what they were going to do and instead of giving me a refund like normal they just happened to have a sealed zelda that i could have and then that one got taken down. coincidence? i think not |

O:
SwapitShop are scammers much :O? |
||
| Grinnerlynn |
SwapitShop names bought a load of PS2 games and PC games off me a while back, about 2 weeks later i saw them all on SwapitShop at 1 swapit starts i recognised them all as mine as all the ones that had been sealed when i sold were the ones they were listing as sold.
think they just like to have some stock to beep swappers happy for when they are a bit low of advertisers frenzys. |
