SwapSimple, founded in 2003 and based in Chicago, Illinois, is an internet based community of individuals who trade amongst each other the books, textbooks, DVDs, and video games they have finished with, for ones they need - instead of buying and selling them.
Members are able to trade their items, in any combination, with other members all across the United States using SwapSimple's online trading platform. The ability for users to add items easily and instantly receive credits is one of the community's main selling points.
As of January 2012, the SwapSimple website will not accept any transactions ("swaps") and there is no response to customer support emails. The website is still visible but SwapSimle operations have ceased.
