Goozex.com — A trading platform for video games and movies. Goozex is a unique platform in that members simply list the games and movies they want to trade. Goozex then finds a match and notifies both parties of the potential exchange.

•Cost to join? Goozex doesn’t have a membership fee, but, unlike other platforms, members pay a $1.99 transaction fee (called a Trade Token) for each product they receive. Purchasing more than ten tokens at once is rewarded with a slight discount.

•One-for-one sharing? No. You are not required to give a game or video in order to receive one.

•Point system? Yes. Points are earned by “selling” items to other members and spent by “buying” items from members. Points represent the trading value of any video game or movie on the network.

•International? Goozex only allows the trading of items that are playable in North America (United States, Canada, and Bermuda). But there is no indication that other countries are off-limits for trade.

•Who pays for shipping? When you agree to trade your item with another member, Goozex will provide you the recipient’s address and a printable shipping label, but the cost of shipping is the responsibility of the person shipping the item.

•Insurance? Yes. Trades on Goozex.com are protected by the Goozex Guarantee. Should a product get lost in the mail or be broken during shipping, Goozex will refund you the points and trade tokens you have spent, and put your request back in queue. In addition, Goozex transfers the points to the seller only after positive feedback is received from the buyer, providing additional protection for your trades.
