Entrepreneurs carry out strings of cashless trades in order to obtain items of increasingly greater value. In the series opener, a speedboat is desired by a trader who starts out with Elvis memorabilia, and a used laptop computer is bartered in an attempt to obtain a pickup truck.
A trader barters for an ATV while his parter attempts to trade up from a welder's mask.
The traders split up and barter individually in an effort to maximize their profits.
