Very nicely stated. I do try to offer a variety of items but not everyone can do that.
It would be nice if people could be a little more patient. It really can make the person doing the offering feel very badly when people are pawing at the dirt waiting for the next swap to show up.

Well said ruthless..

It is a bit unnerving to see the

over and over and over.. but of course.. I have been guilty when someone says MINE and doesn't come back immediately with an offer.. I am trigger happy

. I have been thrilled with the items I have gotten and quite honestly - I don't worry about trying to attach a monetary amount to the offers. I look for things I want.. can use.. and can enjoy. I offer things that hopefully will do the same for others. My main problem is that I have to try to sit on my hands to keep within the 3-swap regulation..

I agree as well. I know that I'll always get nervous when my stuff is up there no matter what. I know I throw in a

not to show disinterest or to be impatient, but to bring it back to the front line so that other BYCers who might not be familiar with the thread see it. I also think that people shouldn't be criticized for their offer. It's just not in the spirit of the swap. Shipping totally drives the cost of everything up. I've had to cool it because the things I send aren't light and well that $8-15 per item adds up REAL fast!

Got my Peonies today from Pdsavage. Very nicely packed and sent more than 2.

Went to the post office and they handed me this huge long box. I couldn't believe it I couldn't begin to even guess what it was.

Thanks a bunch. I am sure going to have a pretty yard thanks to all the swappers I have gotten flowers and plants from. I have a huge yard to fill and it is getting there now. Also all the ones that I have recieved and put in the ground are thriving very well.

Pretty much, The last offer wasn't even 3 hours ago yet. People need to relax and just have fun with it. (We are not at Walmart shopping.

x2 Books are my favorite thing to get and I like just about any type. I stalled the thread with my stuff last time and now feel hesitant to offer again or I wouldve been all over those cookbooks. I must say everyone was very nice to me about it when it happened to me but if someone had commented negatively on it I would definitely not want to take anything again for risk of causing a stall.
