TRADING Two for One Trading Board?

Hi,

I am trying to downsize my traders, and wondered if there might be ten people out there interested in a two for one trade round robin?

Here is how I envision this.

I'll send out a board with 20 pins on it. The first ten people to reply will be accepted to play, as long as they meet the rule requirements.
Each person takes two pins off and puts one pin on. When I get the board back there will be ten pins on it, thus reducing my traders by half.
Early in the trading the package will be heavier, so take that in to consideration if you would like to participate. I also don't care about valuation. If you like a pin and you feel like one pin for the two is an uneven trade, don't worry about it, take the pins you like. Do try to add pins in that the next person might be interested in.
I am willing to add Canadian addresses, as long as people are willing to pay the postage. We can discuss this as a group should the need arise.

Two for one Round Robin – (OE, Loungefly, Hidden Mickey/Disney, Mystery box/bag pins, Hot Topic, Pink-a-la-mode)

RULES:


1. Must have a US or Canada mailing address;
2. Must have a feedback score of 5 or more.
3. Must be active on DPF within the past two weeks. Active means logging in and posting;
4. Pins are traded 2:1, only one trade per person.
5. NO SCRAPPERS. If the pin you are trading into the package has known scrappers and you did not personally purchase the pin direct from the source or a reputable seller/trader, please don't trade it into the package.
6. Trade for what you like, there are no value constraints. Two pins for one, it doesn't matter if the value is uneven.
7.Please share what your trade haul is so we can all enjoy seeing what you pick. This means you post pictures of the pins you pulled that were in the package. Don't post pictures of the contents of the package or what you traded into the package.
8. You must be willing to send your address to the DPF member who is sending the package to you;
9. Package must be shipped with tracking and must be shipped within 7 days after you have received the package. Send the recipient the tracking number.

I’m curious about the details before you start the box.

Let’s say you send 20 pins and each person takes 6 pins and leaves 3. So the second person gets 17 pins, the third person gets 14 pins…. So if it goes through 6 people, you only get two pins back? Maybe I misunderstand the rules, but can you clarify?

Yeah, I think the "swap as many as you want" part is a problem. It seems like it needs to be one swap per person so @TonkaToy ends up with the mentioned 10 pins returned.
 
Oh, yes, I see the problem with that. It would have to be two pins only for each person. I'll update the rules.

I just wanted to make sure you didn’t end up trading for no pins!

One option you might consider is that each person could trade 2 for 1 once and then 1 for 1 for the others. That allows people to make multiple trades but leaves some pins left to come home to you! :)
 
I would love to be a part of it! I only have a feedback score of 4, but if you are willing to overlook that, I'm in.
Hi,
The sign up is limited to the first ten people.
There has been a lot of interest, so I am thinking of doing two of these to meet the demand.
Do you think you would have 5 feedback soon? I really feel like I need to stick to the rules, to be fair to everyone and stay in compliance with forum etiquette.
