Great question. Swap Bucks are the virtual credits used exclusively on urSwap. Yes, you get to buy real items with your new, virtual credits. You're welcome.

Once paid, you will be automatically be redirected back to your Swap Vault where you will see your additional dollars added to your total available balance.
Yes, a very small one. When you buy an item, you pay applicable shipping fees in US dollars (seller determines this price) and a $2.99 swap fee, per purchase in US dollars (excluding promotions that include discounted/waived swap fees). So, for example, if you buy an iPhone for $500 Swap Bucks, your total amount paid in US dollars is only $2.99 (minus applicable shipping). Pretty awesome.

Another great question. If your item does not ship within a set number of days, you have the option to cancel the order. Once cancelled, your Swap Bucks will automatically be refunded back to your Swap Vault. Your Swap Fee and any applicable shipping fees will also be refunded to your PayPal account.
Once your item is marked "shipped," you will not be able to cancel the order. However, you will be able to track your package once shipped. If your item isn't delivered by expected delivery date, you can mark the item as "not received." Admin will then investigate from there to determine your eligibility for a refund.
Swap Bucks - Yes, if transaction is canceled before item is marked "shipped" by seller. Seller has 5 days to ship the item and include appropriate tracking information so you can track your purchase. If item is shipped, but not received, you can request to cancel order. Site admin will then investigate from there to determine whether or not you are eligible for a Swap Buck refund.
Shipping Fees - Yes. If item is not shipped within 3 days, you can cancel the purchase and shipping fee will be refunded to your account. If item is shipped, but not received, you can request to cancel order. Site admin will then investigate from there to determine whether or not you are eligible for a refund.
Swap Fees - Yes. If an item is cancelled, whether by the buyer, seller, or site admin, your Swap Fee will also be refunded to your PayPal account.
The short answer is no. Cancellations are only allowed if your item has not yet shipped. Once shipped, you can initiate a dispute by marking the item, "not received," if you do not receive your item by its expected delivery date.
