Basically, you trade someone your stuff on one world for their stuff on another.

You missed the part where you get scammed 80% of the time and wind up with nothing at all.

I've done over 30 transfers for others in the past and never scammed once, some people are honest.

Unless you personally know the people doing your transfer I wouldn't ever do one. Additionally I wouldn't trust people you do know with anythng substantial. I've seen people act fairly for years untill they had a monster load of stuff in a transfer then scammed a person out of years of work.

I would not risk it but if you insist on doing so, try to find a trust worthy person in both worlds to act as middlemen, decreasing the chances of being scammed.
