1970 Volkswagen Beetle

October 25, 2010 Traded the 1985 Camaro for a restored 1970 Volkswagen Beetle. New tires, brakes, engine and much much more!

1985 CHEVY CAMARO

October 11, 2010 Traded the Toyota Pickup for a 1985 Chevy Camaro. This thing has the IROC Z28 engine .... that takes me around the block really fast. It has a T-top too ... but it's getting too darn cold to probably use it. Oh well I guess.

1988 TOYOTA PICKUP

October 7, 2010 Traded the Chevy Celebrity for a 1988 Toyota Pickup. It has the R22 engine and big tires, what more could I want??

1986 CHEVROLET CELEBRITY

September 10, 2010 Yeah yeah I know what you're thinking 1986 is REALLY old! But get this .... 90,000 miles! The guy I got it from probably never drove it! So anyways, traded the Motorola Droid X for a 1986 Chevrolet Celebrity. It runs really well, but it could really use a paint job!

MOTOROLA DROID X

August 28, 2010 Traded the Netbook for a Motorola Droid X. This one is almost a keeper .... but how could I stop now!?! So I haven't activated the phone yet, but I've set up a way that I can use it as a phone on the college campus using: Google Voice+Gizmo5+Sipdroid+Google Voice Callback App. So now I have a phone with unlimited minutes as long as I'm in a WiFi area.

ACER ASPIRE ONE NETBOOK

August 26, 2010 Traded the Samsung Moment for an Acer Aspire One Netbook. Now this is quite the toy: runs Windows 7, Intel Atom processor, 2gb of memory and a 160gb hard drive! All wrapped up in a little package! .... The downside .... No CD drive!

SAMSUNG MOMENT

August 25, 2010 Traded the 30gb ipod for a Samsung Moment. I'm pretty excited about this one, I've wanted to play around with one of these Android phones for awhile. Too bad it's version 1.5 ....

30GB IPOD CLASSIC

August 15, 2010 So I know this is the same day that I got the Playstation 2 ... but honestly .... I didn't have time for it ... and I'm not too good at video games anyways. So I traded the Playstation 2 for a 30gb ipod classic. It is black, it plays video ... how can you go wrong with that??

PLAYSTATION 2

August 15, 2010 Traded the Blackberry Storm for a Playstation 2, one of the slim ones, with 11 games and two controllers. Too bad I don't have lots of extra time to play it!

BLACKBERRY STORM

July 21, 2010 Traded the "One Free Computer" for a Blackberry Storm smartphone. It's in really good condition, it even has this niffty clear case on it.

THE ONE THAT STARTED IT ALL

June 28, 2010 Found this guy in the Free Section on Craiglist. There was a company that upgraded their computers and was liquidating their old ones. I actually picked five of them up, but I'm only going to tell the story of the one.  So it's an older Dell computer, 700mhz processor, 128mb of memory and a 7gb hard drive. Monitor, keyboard and mouse included. Not too bad of a setup ... runs Windows XP at least.

MY INSPIRATION

So I came across these different stories of people being really successful trading online with sites like Craiglist. People that have traded up for houses and sports cars. I thought it was a good time to also get in on the action, it seemed like something I could do ... So here it goes! Note that I've started this blog a little late since I've already made some trades, but I'll post the exact dates when the trades happened.
