Hi MAH645-I've been using switchouse for about a month and a half so I have some advice for you-give it some time. At first, every trade or deal I proposed was rejected immediately, if the other party responded at all. I was getting really discouraged and I was just going to pull out of there but finally-I made a deal! It's a lot easier once you have a little feedback! The message boards there reflect the same thing, people are so afraid of getting burned that they often shy away from newbies, but give it a little time and someone will make a deal with you.
Anyway, I really like it now-it is a great place to get stuff you want and get rid of stuff you don't that may not necessarily be worth listing at an auction.
Oh, the only other thing is that some people just never bother to respond to your proposals at all, these are the ones that haven't logged in to the site for a while-you can see the last log in date of all the other members before you set up a trade. I just ignore those people.
Good Luck!
