No worries! I'm not denying anything right now anyways unless I am SURE i'm uninterested. 

 

[javagirl87]

yeah definitely keep those glasses if you like them! I keep trying to have them as my main item but they give me crappy side items /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

if i end up trading something down to two items and i have something you like i'll throw that in there too /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

i still have the offer for the zara terez $50 clutch sitting in my offers haha. i actually like it and would take the offer but i'm not really into sequins

 

[javagirl87]

oops nevermind this post haha

I'm the same. I could really care less about the price of the item but since everyone else on the site bases a lot of their trades off monetary worth and not personal worth I find myself doing the nickel and dime dance every trade too because I know if I base it on what I liked I would be screwing myself over in the long run. For example I've had some 50 dollar items or multiple items in the past that I would have gladly given up for an 18 dollar item but if I had then the rest of my trades or my bag would have been pretty crummy.

Like I'm not fond of really anything in my bag right now but I'm just trying to get multiple trade up offers so that I will have enough loot to trade for my coveted items.  I didn't trade like that the first time and ended up with a nice bag still. BUT I think I would have done better had I not held on to some pieces I wasn't overly in love with and just traded them when I got some offers for stuff I didn't like at all but would have shot my bag value way up.

When you initially sign up they could tell you the retail value of each item in your bag and the combined value minus your bag cost and what your savings are and then give you the week to trade like they do now and then after you accept your bag and enter the site just not list any prices what so ever. When it comes time to ship, be it because the week is over or you chose to ship early they could give you the price of everything in your bag, the combined value minus your bag cost yadda yadda so you know how well you did. That way they are still living up to their guarantee of giving you over 100+ dollars in your bag initially but if you end up with less it's because of your own doing. You could still have the option of canceling your bag before it ships and starting over but only BEFORE they reveal the final value of the bag to you. That way you're cancelling because you actually don't like the items in your bag and not because they aren't over a set amount.  Kind of like playing russian roulette but with shopping! you have no idea until you pull the trigger (ship the bag) if the guns going to go off and kill you (be a lower value) or not go off and spare you (higher value).

Losing Tonga. The offer for my matching earrings came up and I can't pass it. lol. Guess I'm going to buy it with my Beautyfix Dermstore coupon instead. lol.

 

[javagirl87]

i have too many items!!!! i can't handle the stress!!!

 

[snllama]

I like that idea. There are some $10 items Id never bid on since I dont want to lose value or some $60 items that I think look like they are worth a penny. People would be more willing to trade based on what they like.

LMAO. I think I had either 9 or 10 items at one point and it was freaking me out!

Can someone point me to the image of the girl wearing the zara terez pendant and fringe necklace that I have in my bag right now? i know someone posted it a few days ago, but I cant find it :-/

Im trying to decide if I should trade down to the ZAD that I know Ill wear. But if I dont like the Zara I could always return it.

I'll be on a lot late tonight and most of tomorrow, if you want you can pm your contact info and I'll msg you as soon as I see em. 

My gf has the gold and really wants a pink, black or turquoise one, I told her if I got the chance I would make a different color one my pick item and trade her for the gold and then use it to get some awesome trades or a bag I want since I know it's so popular right now. So0o0o0o if you want you can just pick a bag I want as your choice item and I'll save the gold in my bag for you until you get the chance to get online and make the trade. This is all providing I even get the darn thing to begin with of course hahaha.

Anyway let me know before you sign off for the night (if you haven't already) so I know if I need to do anything or not 

 

 

[javagirl87]

people really want this bow ring too!!! i'm getting offers up to $24 for it! (not good items though)

 

[HelloLeilani]

I was almost going to take that two item trade for the Moroccan earrings, Stephanie. LOL! I was thinking of trading up those gypsy earrings to that floral glitter bangle. Ahhh! LOOOVES.

 

[javagirl87]

if i end up getting the bangle we can trade it somehow

I just typed out a long reply to you and the forum ate my post with some holding your msg for moderation pop up whatever that means.

So the cliff notes of that lost post were basically that I'll be on really late this evening/morning and most the day tomorrow so if you want to pm me your contact info I could msg you when it pops up.

I had another suggestion too but it took me a while to type out and I'm being lazy and don't really feel like taking the time to do so but in a nutshell My gf has the gold bag, she really wants it in a different color, I told her if I saw it I would make it my item and trade her for the gold one since I knew it would trade well. IF you don't mind having the gold one over a different color then I will hold onto the gold one in my bag instead of trading it and just have you pick a purse that I want from the main page as your choice item to trade with me for the gold, providing everything I just said actually happens and I even get the bag to begin with.

Let me know before you log off )if you haven't already) if you want me to do either of those that way I know what course to take when it comes time for me to start my own trades /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
