Blind coral swap

[bkhunt]

I would be in for zoa/paly. I have no SPS and common LPS but I got a bunch of zoa/paly. I am for a price slot that the frag/frags must fall into that is not to high that would exclude a large group of people.

Id be in for.a sps and Zoa one if someone walks me through.how to.safely ship.

 

[GratefulReef]

Bump!! Lets make this happen!

I guess I'll say what everyone is thinking. This is a disaster waiting to happen on so many counts.

I DON'T think this is what everyone is thinking. I think that this reply is actually the first truly negative response (not to bash your opinion, but I don't think most of us here share it). This just needs someone to lead it. I've got some nice frags that I'm willing to put up for this, and I see several others are too. I do think that someone needs to moderate it to know who is sending what to whom in order to make this work, but otherwise, I don't think this is a bad idea at all.

I say let's make it happen! Who cares if it's small. Maybe it would be good to have a pilot group try it out first.

This sounds like a great idea I wish I could participate but I am just starting out and all I have are common frags that nobody would want.

I also dont agree that this is a disaster waiting to happen, there is the potential for it to happen but potential shouldnt be enough to stop you from doing things that you enjoy. Lets put it into every day perspective, you could be run over by a car for walking down the street will that stop you from talking a walk with your significant other on a beautiful day? You could have a heart attack in your sleep, does that stop you from sleeping? I know those are a bit overboard for analogies but seriously we could make this work, and work well if we put a little effort into it. Maybe make some type of requirement to be able to join the swap, like so much time of being a member with so many posts and if you dont send your frag out maybe you get restricted access to this website, and/or temp/perm bans from the site I'm sure we could have a very sucessful swap and make this into a multiple events during a year, but we've gotta have the right attitudes and put some work into it.

This is in response to the people who are doubtful this can work.

A pipe forum that I belong to has been doing a tobacco swap box for years... It works out just fine. It's a little different concept with there being a list and the box goes from one person to the next, the person who gets the box can take whatever they want as long as they replace what they took or add a little more. This has involved tobacco and pipes and gadgets. You don't have to replace the dollar value, only the quantity at a minimum. by the end of the year there is thousands of dollars worth of pipes and tobacco in the box and everyone is always happy about getting something they haven't tried before.

Just take a deep breath, realize that most people are trustworthy and that yes, every once in a while SOMEone who is a bad apple tries to ruin things for everyone else by not holding up their end of the bargain. That person just is not allowed to participate every again. I for one, think this is an outstanding idea. I'm in if it ever gets figured out logistically.

I agree. For that matter, every time you buy something from someone on here, you take a risk.

I was out of town in Houston for training last week so I wasn't on the forums much.

Looks like we have plenty of interested parties, let's move forward with this. I'll spear head it.

Do you guys want to do a free for all first time out or do you wat to select a type and go that route?

 

[glamisracers]

Free for all that's the excitement of this you don't know what your expecting to get let's get this Goin

I will hold out for a Z/P because I have enough LPS and soft and no lighting for SPS. Thanks

I'm in for FFA. :tongue:

 

[glamisracers]

Are we still planning on starting this? I have a lot of corals I'm going to start fragging but would like to give this swap a try first

I'm in. Just waiting for somebody to tell me how to go about making this happen. I've actually got a couple of pieces I can send.
