'''Barter''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]]; he appears in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Barter operates a [[Barter's Swap Shop|swap shop]] in the [[Northern Kremisphere]] overworld, located to the west of [[K3]].
'''Barter''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] who appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. He runs a swap shop business named [[Barter's Swap Shop]], where he trades an item with his customer. Barter is in possession of a [[No.6 wrench]], which [[Björn]] of [[Razor Ridge]] needs to repair his chairlifts. Barter is reluctant to trade the No.6 wrench, and he only agrees to trade it in exchange for the [[Mirror (item)|mirror]]. The Kongs can later pay ten [[bear coin]]s to get the mirror back. While Barter has the mirror, his place is mirrored. Prior to owning it, Barter had a sloppier look. His appearance is neater when he has the mirror, but he explains that the change occurred because he fell into a lake. He reverts to his untidy look if the Kongs regain the mirror. Neither of these events happen in the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]].


Barter just so happens to be in possession of a [[No. 6 Wrench]]. Although [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] have no use for a wrench themselves, [[Björn]] of [[Razor Ridge]] reveals that he lost his No. 6 Wrench, and asks the [[Kong]]s for their assistance in finding it. While Barter is reluctant in parting with the No. 6 Wrench, the Kongs can pry it away from him by purchasing the [[Mirror (item)|Mirror]] that [[Bazaar]] sells for fifty [[Bear Coin]]s, and trading it to Barter in exchange for the wrench.
Barter's original appearance had discrepancies between his artwork and in-game appearance. His artwork shows him in a business attire, including a black hat, leather shoes, pants, and a purple suit. He also has a small mustache. In the game, Barter's mustache was made bigger, and his shirt was changed to striped and white, with a striped green and yellow tie. In the Game Boy Advance version, Barter wears a larger red hat, red pants with a black belt, and blue straps connecting to his belt. He also appears to wear a white, sleeveless shirt.
 
[[Baffle]] also needs the Mirror to help him solve a puzzle, which leads the way to a [[Banana Bird Cave]]. Should the Kongs wish to purchase back the Mirror from Barter, they have to pay him ten Bear Coins for it.

==Trivia==
*In the original [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] version of the game, Barter's swap shop appears to be mirrored while he is in possession of the Mirror. This does not happen in the [[Game Boy Advance]] [[remake]].
*He's the only Bear Brother to have a sprite change, where he looks sloppy before getting the mirror and after getting rid of it, and looks neater when in possession of the mirror. The change is explained by Barter that it was because he fell into the lake.
