Man! why do people make the best offers at 5:30am and then someone else takes it because you're asleep? I woke up at 7! that's early enough haha

I had to stop reading my emails because it upset me lol, and just look at what trades I had available. 

 
I did an accidental trade on my iPhone last night, but thankfully, I accidentaly traded my least wanted item (though it was still VERY wanted *insert sad panda facey*). I traded for a near identical necklace to the one I got last time. Though I love my necklace from last time I do need some variety. lol. Thankfully, I finally traded the accidental thing for something I'm more likely to wear. It took forever to get rid of.

Oh well, 4 more days to trade. lol.

 
i opened another bag for that owl doormat... uhhhhh. hahahahaa but i got 56 trades as soon as i opened my bag sooo i guess it's worth more because of its novelty ! :) lol... Leilani, do you like those betsey johnson sunglasses? i have them (in another bag, in another account... i'm getting both so no worries about me cheating! lol) i'm not sure if i want them because i have big buddha ones OTW... but i kinda like those glittery cateye ones more.

i kinda wanna get rid of them altogether, but i see what you're saying about no one offering anything worth while (i picked it as my first item because i was guaranteed to also get the leopard cuff or the owl necklace, both which i looooveee! .. got the leopard cuff btw! i have a billion owl necklaces anyway)

I absolutely ADORE my sunglasses. So I'd say keep them, but, I do know sunglasses are a personal thing. Tastes vary.

Someone is offering me a three item trade for my Nila Doctor Bag. They're offering me the Big Buddha glasses I want (I love having both a black and brown pair around), but the other two items in the trade sort of suck and the total comes out to $3 less than my bag. What to do? What to do? LOL. Maybe I should pass and hope they come back to me with better "other" items?

 
I have that kitten/tiger necklace and I really don't want it. i'm getting trade offers but none for anywhere near what it is worth. :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 
I'm having the SAME problem with my witch/sweetheart necklace... if you'd like that one better i'd trade you lol i think they're all kind of tacky TBH... not worth $56. i'm trying to trade (way) down for some betsey johnson jewelry, but no luck so far. ):

and someone accepted for the glitter cat eyes! yay! all my sunglasses are either brown or black... i'm happy to get some color in there :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Yeah, I think they are all awful and I'd rather have kitten/tiger lol. I won't wear either, but I feel like it'll be easier to give away lmao. I'm trying to trade down for about 20 different things, ranging from 38-50 dollars and I'd take ANY OF THEM. Hopefully someone bites on the high price. 

I'm receiving some really good offers on my betsey johnson earrings, but those were the item I chose so I don't want to trade unless something AMAZING comes along.

 
that's how i feel about my owl mat <3 i love that mat. lolol and my dog just ruined my other doormat so it's perfect, and i also made my boyfriend decorate our house in owls because i'm obsessed. it sucks that the most "expensive" item is the one i cannot get rid of...
 

 
yayyy another owl fan! I got the owl necklace in my last bag and I would NOT let anyone else have it even when the offered me a ton :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
 

 
sweet mother of pearl someone bit on the ugly necklace! got a hello kitty watch. i friggen love hello kitty. i just bought a HK watch but... it's better than that hideous cheap looking necklace.

Yeah, it is! Nothing interesting is happening, hah. It usually picks up after work at least.

When I originally opened my bag I had these $12 earrings that I didn't like at all. I've been slowly trying to trade up a couple dollars every time for them. I'm on a mission to see how much I can turn my original $12 item into :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I got my $12 up to $35 but traded down to the $25 necklace I was in love with. In the end it was worth it because NO ONE was taking an even trade/close to even trade for it. Trading up to $35+ was the only way I was going to get that necklace.

Good luck with your trading! I hope you get an awesome haul.

And haha, I'm on my phone (being verrrry careful now) doing my trading, I look a few times an hour. :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
lol! i'm too scared to trade from my phone. over the weekend, i visited my parents and we went out to dinner and my dad was tapping all over my screen because he knew it'd bother me, he almost traded away something! i have a setup in my living room now, my laptop and my ipad since i have two bags going lolol

 
I've realized that this is the best strategy too! Decide on something you want, and then trade up to something ugly so you can trade back down haha

I can't decide if I should try trading up both my earrings...they're so cute though...but it'd be fun to see if I can trade up. And i'm not gonna give up the blush easily either since I lost it and it took me forever to get back haha.

What do you guys think? Should I try to trade up the $20 torquoise earrings (the carol ones) I have?
