List of Great Books on Bartering
Just by going to websites like this, you are way ahead of the general populace. If you go ahead and actually prepare you are light-years ahead of most. If we have a large scale disaster, you may be in a position to trade some of your goods (and services) for items you may need. What I would like to do is give you a list of great books on bartering.
While you won’t get really good at bartering without practice, good reference books on bartering can definitely help you. I personally stay with what I know and would try to stay away from jewelry and stick to guns – in a grid down or in a time of hyper-inflation, I may not have a choice but to barter with or for jewelry and other things. In that case I would hope to have some updated references to use.
