I had an old van that I really wanted to sell, but I wasn’t sure how to go about doing it on my own. My neighbor asked what I was going to do with it, and I told him that I wanted to sell it, but it needed so much work that I wasn’t sure what to ask for it.

He happened to mention that he had several laptops that he had just refurbished, so I asked him if he would be willing to trade a laptop for the van. Deal! Woo hoo! We’re both happy with the way this trade worked out.
