Not everything has a $1 FVF. Swapping/Selling services has a $10 FVF.
http://www.swapthing.com/corporate/pricing.jsp Quote:The transaction fee for service swaps is higher than that for item swaps based on the assumption that after contact information has been exchanged, a relationship will be formed between both parties and they will no longer need SwapThing for future transactions. Basically, you are acquiring a new customer for $10. As a seller I prefer fixed price where the buyer pays at the time of purchase with a credit card. As a buyer, I found this site's listing pages to be annoying last year and they're just as annoying this year. ![]()
