How Toyswap WorksContact Us With Any Questions

Browse Toy Swap to find toys that you are looking for. When you have determined that a toy you are looking for exists on the site, you will be required to register so that you can begin the swapping process.

First, list the toys you have available for swapping, which is available in your account manager. It takes only about 45 seconds to list a toy.

We use a system of color codes to show price ranges for the value of each toy. This will help to price toys, and make it easier for swapping toys of equivalent value.

$0-10 Dollar Value: YELLOW
$11-20 Dollar Value: BLUE
$21-30 Dollar Value: GREEN
$31-40 Dollar Value: ORANGE
$41-50 Dollar Value: RED
$51-75 Dollar Value: PURPLE
$75+ Dollar Value: GOLD

Transactions that occur between users on Toy Swap - swaping, selling, or buying - will cost $1, known as a Toyswap.com credit. If you buy 5 credits, you will get one free. This is being offered for a limited time.

After you list the toys you have to swap, you then create and save your "want list". This "want list" includes the toys that you were originally searching for.

Once you create and save your "want list", our system will search to match you up with individuals who have toys you want, and who want toys that you have. (PLEASE REMEMBER IN ORDER FOR A MATCH TO HAPPEN, USE GENERAL WORDING IN YOUR WANT LIST, AND YOUR WORDING MUST MATCH EXACTLY) EX:  If you listed in your want list "Dora Stuff" and someone else has a "Dora 3 Story Plastic Doll House" it won't show up - simply put "Dora" or "Dora House" in your want list wording.

If our system delivers a match, select the toy you want, and view its details.

If you like it, hit "swap" and then wait to see if the swapper accepts your swap. You will get 2 emails - the first one is a confirmation of a swap you started, and the second email will be sent when the other party accepted or denied your swap.

If they accepted your swap, you will receive the other swapper's email address with the acceptance notification – contact them with your shipping information.

If denied (swap not accepted), try again with another swapper.

Please note that with every toy listed is the name of each swapper, along with their have and want lists.

If you search the site and find a toy you want that didn't show up in your match search, check the swapper's want list anyway - you may have a toy they were looking for, but just didn't list the toy on your "have list"! Post that particular toy on your "have list" to create a swap!

Every toy has an "Ask Swapper A Question" link - please use this tool.

NOTE: No email addresses are allowed to be exchanged between members. For your own protection, all swapping must be conducted via the tools on our website. Violation of this rule will terminate your membership on Toy Swap.

You cannot charge shipping on a swapped toy.

You can add shipping cost if you are selling a toy - the fact that you will charge additional shipping cost must be disclosed in the description.

Feel free to ask the Toyswap.com Staff any questions you may have - we are here to help!
