Default OT - Help to translation - :-)

NewsGroups brought forth on stone tablets:
I´m running a website with used/secondhand boat in Scandinavien.

I´m starting a section where the sellers can choose to show that they might
be interested in taking fx. a bigger boat or a sportscar or an apartement
or...... as part of the sale.

But what do you call that in english?

Exchange with a bigger boat... ?? or whats the words for it ?

Thanks in advance -

If you are saying, "I want to sell my $500,000 boat. I am willing to
take a $250,000 boat and cash for the difference", I'd call it a
"partial trade".

On the other hand, if you are saying " I want to sell my $250,000 boat.
I am willing to trade my boat and some cash for your $500,000 boat",
then I think I would say "Looking to trade up - are you looking to
downsize?"

Does this help?
