I still don't get how you trade so and so for a BETTER so and so. I mean are the people he was trading with slow or something? And how do you trade a macbook pro for an automobile? Did he trade it for a Ford Escort? Someone please explain to me how you trade a paperclip for a house.

They keep trading for things just a little bit better.. Takes ALOT of trades but I guess it was worth it in the end.

some things are worth more to certain people. say if i had a tv worth $600, and you had an xbox worth $300. say i really want an xbox so i trade you my tv. now you moved up and can trade for something better.

i just wanna know what the first thing the paper clip guy traded for was.

what the hell do you trade for a paperclip? a penny? a plastic spoon? seriously wtf?

The paperclip was traded for a pen, which was traded for a doorhandle or something LOL. It's on wikipedia.

The paperclip guy made a bunch of trades, but his big break was when he made a trade 1 year's rent for an afternoon with Alice Cooper.

Haha cruising craigslist is one of my favorite hobbies I trade away cars every 2 months or so. My most recent aquisition was the yota in my sig, I'm getting a ton of interest in it for sale at $5000 right now and I traded a yz250 I had $1500 into for it.
