We’re super excited about the pending launch of Swap.com and to get everyone jazzed along with us, we decided to host a little contest. We asked you – our loyal members and faithful swappers – to help us name our new slogan. We posted the contest rules on Facebook and on our forums, and we received more than 200 entries!
Before we divulge our top 10 and ask you to choose, we’d like to have a little chat with you – our swappers – about some of the slogans we received. What’s with the hamsters, friends? Also, you are certainly a randy little bunch – we can tell with all the “three-way” suggested slogans. (Admittedly, we did get a good laugh out of those.) But alas, we can put “swapping hamsters” and “I had a 3-way at Swap.com” on t-shirts without members of our board raising an eyebrow. So, we’ll keep these filed away for a rainy day when we need a good laugh and in the meantime…
We bring you: The Top 10 Slogans for Swap.com

Love Potion #9
I vote for #3 Swap.com: If you can’t find it here, it hasn’t been invented yet. – paulnaff
#2
#10
That’s a really cool one.
#9
# 9 because of better stylistics,
otherwise it would be #2
I like #6
XOXO~ Renee
#SEVEN w/o a doubt!!
#2
second #9
#9
I agree with Janet. Nothing on the list seems great. Number 9 seems best. At least it has alliteration and rhythm. But devoid of much charm or wit
Number 9
#8
1. #9
2. #2
3. #4
#9
#9
#7
#6. I like the subtlety.
Hard choice but I like #9!
#9 – Makes for great use on tv commercials, radio ads, print ads.
It just works.
9
#9 or #10 are the best of the ones offered. They’re plays on familiar slogans.
I like #7, but I think that #2, 6, 8 and 9 are also pretty good given the choices.
Not crazy about any, but since a vote is required…I’ll pick #2
Adding my own though: Swap.com Save More Than Money
#9
#9
#6 first and a close second #10.

This slogan should win its funny & fun and I think it will make more people join swaptree because bad things are spread faster and more than good things.
