I'm wanting to start a RR swap and was wondering if anyone would be interested in a larger flat rate box ( $12.95? ) I have some great things that are just slightly too big for the normal flat rate box so I thought maybe someone would be interested in doing a larger box...

The same each sm lot or item valued at $5, I'll stick so many items/lots in the box and ship somewhere and get it going....

If anyone wants to do this kind post and I'll get it set up and ready to go and out the door

what do you do?

sorry its late and im tired

take a lookee at the other round robin swaps to get a better idea...

but basically someone starts the box by placing so many items valued at $5 each into the box, we come up with 10 people who want to do the swap.. I make a list of what is in the box and as you get it, cross out what you take and write in what you add, each item you add or small lot needs to value at $5 as well to keep it all fair.

You send it to the next person on the list and ta da... you have no clue whats coming your way and its fun! Different from the typical swap forsure. Last person on the list sends it back to me

I will start the box with a wide range of items that should give whoever recieves it some great choices to choose from...

Now just need 9 people, since I would take the 10th spot

i so wish i could do this one.. but we've been packing to move.. so all of our cool stuff is packed up.. i'm gonna have to wait until we get settled into our new house!

When do you get settled

I'm not in a rush and so far only 2 of you have shown any interest lol if its not too far off even, maybe putting you last on the list?

I can set my goodies aside and try again soon if it seems like a better fit for people.

I'd just love to do a larger box so some larger items could even be included.

I know I just sent off the 2nd round robin swap box off, and I'm on the list to get the kids r.r. box.... maybe its too soon to start another one that involves a few extra dollars at the PO?

I know I was able to pull 2 small gifts to set aside for the holidays out of the first round robin. I had new giftable items I put in that first box and I have some nice stuff to start a larger box with.

Ah man, I had no idea there was a dollar amount per item. *sigh* Sorry about that.

I'd be interested in a few weeks; I've got 2 RR swaps going on as it is, and am just not ready to add another to the list.

I'm not sure yet.. were putting the house on the market in less than two weeks and were hoping its going to sell *fast*.. So don't wait around for me.. but if you all decide to do it at a later date.. I will defiantly join in the fun!!
