First, sign up. It’s Free.
Upload stuff to trade to your closet-that’s what we at tradingo call the area that holds the stuff you want to trade. Go to the toolbar in the right hand corner, and click on the double arrow icon:

Name the item, describe it, tag it, rate the condition (1=worst, 5=best), and add a picture of the item if you have one (items with pictures trade and sell faster). If you’re a TradingoPro member, you can add a price to the item if you want to sell it (more on that in a minute)

Once you’ve uploaded your stuff, you’ll need to know about the tool bar (in the upper right hand corner of the page:

See something you like? Propose a trade:

You’ll get a message sent to your email letting you know if your trade was

And you want to buy it, click on the picture of the item, and you’ll see this:

Either offer an item to trade, or, if you want to purchase the item, click the “buy it now” button and you’ll be taken to your PayPal account (you’ll need a PayPal account to buy items on tradingo) where you can transfer funds into the sellers account.

If you want to sell your items, you’ll need to sign up for a TradingoPro Account:

Before you can upgrade to a TradingoPro Account, you’ll need to set up a PayPal™ account if you don’t already have one. Once you’ve upgraded your account to TradingoPro, just add the email address you used to sign up for PayPal™ to your “My Account” area-its at the bottom of the page:

When that’s done, you’ll notice there’s a new field in the upload section, the “Price IT” field. This allows you to add a “Buy It Now” price to your items.

Now, other Tradingo members can either buy your item or offer an item for trade:

If they buy your item, you’ll get an email notification and the funds will be deposited into your ebay account. Don’t forget to send the item out within 24 hours.
