Items acquired through trading stuff sites may turn out to be quite valuable as well.

Some websites are specific to certain types of items only. For example, there are a number of clothes-swapping businesses online that allow users to sell, buy or swap designer shoes and apparel, which is a great way of saving money and getting further use out of many designer pieces that are most often only used once or just a few times. Other online sources specialize in swapping household items, furniture and other goods.
