Some of the trades were ridiculous and could never be duplicated

[bosco_sticks]

Remember Dwight also started with a paperclip and traded his way up for doctor Copperfield's miracle legumes

[MouthyMama]

Only 14 trades is remarkable. I've bartered for a quad and a street bike for my Son starting with an N64 w/no controllers & a 1992 Pontiac Grand AM bumper respectively, but it took more than 14 trades on either and sometimes you trade down in there somewhere bc you know **one** person who will find bigger value in something than even fair trade value but it's always an interesting, semi wild ride.

The last trade was 240, 000 to the bank for the house

I started with a brand new home theater system I picked up at Goodwill for $40, traded that for a 2 seater go cart, traded the gocart for a kawasaki Enduro and traded that for a Pontiac grand prix that I gave my son for his first car. Never had luck like that again but I still try

The paperclip statue in honour of this is in Kipling Saskatchewan.

I remember when this happened it's one of my all-time favorites. He ended up trading a snow globe for a movie role to Make a wish foundation for a house

Didn’t happen the way you think, guy was on the news and people gifted everything

[offthebeatentrail]

Sounds like he had connections. Because that is literally impossible unless you have people give you everything. Must be nice to know rich people

[Minnesotayankee]

That must have been an awesome paper clip

[MFDOOMSDAa]

I still remember the time i traded a clip for a binder. Good times!!

[doobiegotbeats]

🤨🤨🤨High speculation out of one of those 14 was def a drug deal forsure 😂😂

[Ben-ir]

I believe it… crazy AF but if you can manage to find and negotiate something that people want then bartering is a pretty cool option..?! 😮😅😂😂

[KathyA-rlcz]

I’m impressed and I admire him for his moxie. Great job! 👏👏👏

Anything is possible Squidward with the power of *Imagination

[Alpssener]

If he made his first trade for a 3$ pen, then doubled the value each trade, he would end up with 25K

[Manyamarucya]

Omg its Dwight Schrute under an alias name

[AIvaroSantiago]

He went from owning a paperclip to having to pay property tax

[hallemma]

I saw this in college and never will forget it

[adansanchez]

Looks like the house from me myself & irene
