Berlin
Swapfest
April 19th, 2025
at c-base
Rungestraße 20, 2nd Backyard
In association with Berlin's long-time hacker space c-base we're hosting the first of a quarterly Swapfest at their space in Kreuzberg. This is a place to swap electronics, computer equipment, and tools.
In tune with the spirit of right-to-repair as well as re-use; the goal of the Berlin Swapfest is for people to bring electronics, equipment, and tools they no longer use, but want to bring to a good home. If you've been trying to find the perfect equipment to build your home-lab or looking for new electronic components or tools, this should be the place for you. Berlin Swapfest is inspired by the MIT Swapfest
Yes, c-base will provide space and tables. Space will be allocated based on registration information. If you forgot to register as a provider of items, it may be possible to to get table-space if there is room left - but people that registered have priority!
Being a provider of items is free. Depending on the size of the item you're bringing you may be asked for a deposit to handle disposal of your items should you not bring it back home with you.
However, we highly encourage you to only bring items you're comfortable bringing back home with you.
We have no requirements on how to exchange goods; if you choose to use Cash, Cryptocurrency, PayPal, Electronics, Services, Knowledge, Beverages, etc. it is entirely up to you. Any disputes must be taken up with the seller. Only in the case of a breach of c-base rules will a team member step in.
