How do you go about bartering? Is there a fair method to put a price on something in exchange for other goods/services?

With the economy going further south, bartering may be common with people just exchanging goods/services. Any ideas how to go about bartering?

TIA

you can barter on craiglist. I've bartered things before with great luck...I did used baby items for formula checks.

I barter goods all the time. I actually just placed several ads today. I don't worry about equal value- I just barter what I have and they need for what they have that I need. Right now I'm bartering stockpile stuff for fresh fruits and veggies. I have always believed that we should barter for anything we possibly can, it just makes so much more sense than always buying what we need and throwing out what we don't.

does craigslist have a barter place?

Yep, they have a whole barter category! I post there all the time!
