But like Donna said, i'd much rather have things I like than a bunch of stuff with a high value. especially because I got SOOO much in my last bag I dont' feel bad getting kinda screwed over in this one...as long as I get what I want.

Aww I see. Well hopefully the new month brings an influx of people! When does your bag time run out? You never know, someone might really want the blush and trade down for it. I hope you get the set that you want!

NOOOO i was accepting the offer and it said someone else had already accepted it!!!! UGH.

does anyoen know how well the bcbg coil trade? i had good luck with it at one point but now i'm not sure haha. I like the butterfly necklace I have but it's way too big for me, even though it's cute. i'm getting a lot of good offers for the necklace though (item wise, not price wise haha)

The post with the trading tips is on page 42!

I would also agree and with Stephanie and say that great way to move up is to offer trades with people just opening a bag. They usually are the ones most likely to trade down for things.

Yeah, a lot of times it looks like they just want things they like, no matter the price difference, and to ship.

I have had no luck trying to trade that bracelet up. I've gotten offers with cheap earrings, but if I never get rid of, it I'm happy to keep it

You make the offers on that one for items you want above the price. People seem to like it but it's like they don't know it's there until you offer it to them. The necklace I have I originally traded the butterfly for.

Did you try offering it for the powder blushes? It seems like they trade better, but maybe someone who has a powder blush already owns it and wants to try a cream?

i just got rid of my haskell earrings for brown bird iphone case. Do you guys things the red and white monsta case would trade better. I already have that one from my last bag so it's not something that i'd be interested in keeping.

 

[DonnaJ]

Oh and sorry if you all are getting lowball trade offers for my necklace. I'm trying anything at this point!

It seems to me like the panda and monkey ones trade the best. Not sure about the red and white monsta one since I haven't seen it trading, that could be because it wasn't really in play before though.

well leilani is the only one with the powder blush i want haha and that's because I gave it to her when I thought I was canceling .  the other two aren't my color at all...so I don't know if it's worth it to try and trade up a dollar, and one is the same price as mine anyway.

i've never been able to trade that one up no matter how hard i try /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> i usually end up trading down for a 2 item offer...

I think the last time you had it there were too many out there, that's one of the things they flooded the market with last week. Now, not so much. Try trading it up!

 

[javagirl87]

haha okay i'll give it more time. i have offers out for everything right now for it (up to $45). nobody has bitten yet! but we'll see!

 

[geniabeme]

I was giving some crazy offers for that cargo set like 3 items over the price of the cargo set.. I want it! lol OR a Jelly! People need to sign on!

 

[HelloLeilani]

lol, Donna! I'm far from the queen of trading. I lost a nice Steve Madden bag, then lost a nice Street Level satchel, to get where I am. hahaha. And at one time I was up to $330 but now I'm $297. I did a bit of trading down to be sitting securely on what I want. That said, I've been having a crazy amount of offers for my stuff. Woke up to 27 trade offers and that's with me clearing out multiple ones at like 3 AM.

Currently there are only two things I reaaaallly want in the gallery (more than a couple of things I have). The $60 earrings I have right now are my second fave in that price range, my first fave are the huge purple spikey ones. 

 

[javagirl87]

i'm afraid to contact customer service again haha now that i got that snooty response...i'll probably just have to call emily and make sure i talk to her directly!! 

yeah i don't think anyone with the cargo set has been online all day

And I'm still thankful. 

 The coupon I gave you is what I was going to use to get Tonga finally if I didn't get it this time around. 

 

[javagirl87]

ahhh marica I love that necklace!! i wish i didn't have to trade down $10 for it though otherwise I would take it!

/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> yeah it was definitely worth it for me too, i'm so excited to get rome and laguna!! I remember trying REALLY hard to get rome when it was on LBB and they just would not give it!
