I have closed my account due to Swap-A-CDs $3.00/credit policy.

For those of you I have traded with, thank you. It has been a pleasure. Good luck in your CD hunting, may you find the discs of your dreams!

Steve, I dont think I ever traded with you.  Sorry to see that you are leaving.  Losing you will be a great loss to the site.

Valerie,

Thanks for the kind words. At $3.00/per credit plus fees, the site is no longer viable financially for me. I have other options locally that make more sense. If Swap-A-CD management wakes up, maybe the site can be saved. But they had beeter do it fast. The site is quickly failing.

I don't know if we've traded, but as of today, I suspended my tower here. My reasons go beyond just the worthless credits that I can no longer sell. I'm tired of the fraud that goes on here. (I wrote about that in another thread, so I won't get into it here.) This is not the site it once was. I'm paying to send out new or nearly new CDs and paying again to receive dirty, scratched up CDs without inserts that I never really wanted to begin with. Way too much money down the drain at this site. What a shame.

I agree the site is failing. I used to log on here and hundreds of people would be on here. Now it's not even 40 people at any given moment.

Steve, I understand and you will be missed.  I believe that the free market ( supply / demand) should determine the value of a credit (or anything else) as opposed to having a value artificially dictated, but it is what it is.  Godspeed and happy trading elsewhere sir....

A bit late with my reply, but I wanted to add that Steve B always had great offers on his tower... It's sad that the new credit pricing policy has driven him out.  I already miss his special deals.
