What are the big changes with Marketplace 2.0?

Marketplace 2.0 is the public "codename" for Swappa's new system for listing products here on Swappa! This updated system originally launched alongside Swappa Gaming as a way to test it out, and Swappa recently migrated the entire marketplace to Marketplace 2.0.

This migration comers with a number of improvements and adjustments that are important to note for users familiar with Swappa's old system:

• When creating a listing, the fields have been simplified, so details regarding shipping details, return policies, included items, and anything else should be placed in the description
• Swappa's condition guidelines have been adjusted to be product specific, and different products have slightly different condition details
• Listings in new condition now also require the products to be factory sealed (unless not sealed by the manufacturer)
• Comments are disabled on listing pages until a listing is approved for purchase, and Swappa's moderators no longer leave a "Listing approved!" comment since the seller is notified via email
• Links in your profile for listings, sales, purchases, and subscriptions have changed
• Express shipping has been added as an option for an additional price if desired
• Listings and comments can be flagged for review by our moderation team
• Certain listings that meet very specific criteria may sometimes be automatically approved
