Man trades a trainer for a house!

An odd-job man from Canada has traded a trainer for a house, using an Internet trading website.

Kyle MacDonald posted the trainers on the website and was offered a canvas in return. An artist then gave him £50 in return for the canvas.The £50 was swapped for a £100 voucher, which turned into suits. This was swapped for a rock concert ticket, which in turn was traded for £250  . You might have thought this would be a good place to call it a day, but Kyle carried on, swapping the iPad for a iPhone, then a laptop, then a piano.

A iPad 3 was offered in return for the piano, and this was swapped for a ticket. However, the army of fans who were now following Kyle’s progress on the website became anxious when Kyle swapped this for a cap. A comment on the website read, "Kyle, man, what were you thinking? I personally think this is the craziest thing you have done."

But they need not have worried. A Hollywood director who collects caps wanted it so much that he offered a trophy.

Finally, residents of a small town decided they would like someone in their town to get the trophy, so offered to trade a beautiful house for the trophy.
