I am a Japanese computer science student studying at KTH.
I built this site bacause I found the process of selling unnecessary, if the intent is to then purchase another item with the money you made from selling your item. Exchanging can save your time and money, while receiving a product of your interest – just like selling and buying, but in a single streamline.
I would appreciate if you could take a look at it and provide some feedbacks, and if you like the site sharing with other people would be really helpful.
Thank you.
I have built a site for people in Sweden to exchange their items for free.

Neat site! I would perhaps add a “Location” and “Delivery ways (Meet in person / shipping etc)” feature when the user is searching for items.
Edit: I saw you have no search bar for now. My bad!
The concept of having to find somebody with an item you want that also want an item of yours that he values roughly the same seems extremely inconvenient. We invented money for a reason..!
We already have that for bikes in our university cities. Everyone can take whichever bike they need.
For everything else we can use your site. Great job and enjoy Sweden!
really a interesting site
How will this save you time and money? To find someone else who has what you want and are willing to exchange will take a lot of time and they will probably live far away too which will take even more time and gas money.
素敵なサイトですよ。ありがとうございます。
This seems like a good alternative to [Bortskänkes](https://www.bortskankes.se/). I can see this being useful for exchange of textbooks for students for example.
Nice site and cool idea OP!
