Swappa at Google I/O 2011

Swappa made the trip out to San Francisco last week for Google I/O 2011. It was amazing.

I will be back next year.

Overall, we’d really recommend Swappa to those trying to get rid of old Android devices and not wanting to go through eBay’s whole process, as well as those trying to get a new Android device to play with off contract. In short, Swappa is like a facilitated Craigslist just for Android geeks.

Thank you to Okay Geek and Jason Tsay for the great write-up.

Swappa tries to take bite out of big boys in used Android device sales

An Android programmer from Kansas City, Edwards has long felt that sites like eBay and craigslist are lacking as marketplaces for the sale of Android phones. Edwards has never found the sites' policies regarding phones' conditions stringent enough — "the wild west," he calls eBay and craigslist — and grew weary of having to inquire about the specifics of phones he planned to purchase.

Thanks to Michael Stacy and Silicon Prairie News for the great write-up.

The glorious thing about this fairly new website is that they only sell sell/auction devices that are fully functional and ready to activate. If you shop here you won’t have to worry about phones with bad ESN’s, water damage, or cracked screens.

Thanks to Adam Warren and DHTG for the good words.

As you might expect, Swappa is a bit of a geek-out. If you aren't serious about smartphones, you're probably better off hanging out on eBay and sorting through the hundreds of used flip-phone chargers to find what you want. But if you're looking for a rooted Evo, or a Droid that's overclocked to 1100MHz, then Swappa is going to be a much better bet than slumming the e-resale ghetto.Publish Post

There’s a new kid on the block for online classifieds, and its geared specifically for us Android users. Swappa takes the disadvantages of other sites such as eBay and Craigslist, tears them up into a million tiny pieces, and tosses them out the window. What we’re left with is an outstanding, simple to use, and reliable service to buy and sell Android phones.

Thanks to Brent and The Droid Demos for a great review.

Swappa is a rather new online site specifically designed to buy and sell Android devices. Swappa allows you to sell or buy your phone with complete listings including pictures, phone details and a spot to put your ESN to exchange after the sale.

Thank you to The Droid Guy for your continued support of Swappa and all things good-for-Android.

Got an old Android device you want to get rid of? Are the people on Craigslist and eBay clueless as far as mobile products go? Well my friend there is a solution. A one-stop-shop specifically for Android users looking to sell or buy an Android device. A place where people actually know what they are dealing with.

Thanks to Don Hatfield of MTV.com Geek! for the good words about Swappa.

Swappa is set up and organized really well. You simply pick the device you want to either sell or buy, and it lists out other people who are selling the same device, the details, and how much each person is charging. It is easy to navigate and to see what the current market value (at least on Swappa) is for different devices.

Thank you to Android Guys and author Ray Walters.

Buying a used Android phone can be tough. It seems like most of the people slingin’ their handsets up on eBay or Craigslist are doing so because they don’t really understand the phone, which doesn’t exactly lend to their ability to aptly describe it.

Enter Swappa. Swappa wants to be the trading post for even the geekiest of Android geeks.

Thank you to MobileCrunch and Greg Kumparak for covering Swappa. It's a geek's dream come true to see your pride and joy featured on the pages of the TechCrunch network.
