Student Trades Cell Phone for Porsche Boxster

Steven Ortiz, a seventeen-year-old student, recently made headlines when he traded an old cell phone for a 2000 Porsche Boxter S on Craigslist. Of course, the trade didn’t happen overnight - In fact, it took nearly 2 years and 14 online swaps for Ortiz to acquire the Boxter. Nevertheless, it was an impressive achievement by any means. Ortiz used the help of the “barter” section of Craigslist, where people trade unwanted items to obtain desired goods. He spent five to six hours a day scouring the website for good deals and despite starting with an old cell phone, eventually traded into a series of cars, the last of which he traded for the Porsche.
