One question and an observation.
Q: if this is a "swap", who pays the 4 bucks? Both parties?
O1: I think you are onto something here. But it is probably not this exact idea. If your proposition is "cheap + used + as fast as Amazon"... why not just use Amazon? People with books valued over 4 bucks lose out; better to sell it.
O2: You have been working on this full-time for 6 months, and have 3 months more to go? That is an unhealthy amount of time to do something like this without user feedback.
I am tempted to invest, but I think that's more to do with the low minimum than my excitement. The most innovative and clever thing is the funding method, not the business.
- joeguilmette 19y agoyea the video was very well put together, but not once did you address the very important nuts and bolts as to what exactly mean with the $3.99 swap. do both parties mail their books at the same time? why the $4 fee? what does that money buy? to me, this looks like you could get leapfrogged by a facebook app, which says a lot. also, is this $10 an investment or a donation? do we get any equity for purchasing?
