  • .....oh, and i've just re-read the letter that gets sent to new 'cyclers....I can't find where it says you have to post an 'offered' first. (I could be wrong, please let me know if I am, but I can't see it)

    I had a similar response in my area. I have tried posting 2 wants in 18 months and the second was refused as I hadn't offered. I replied saying I didnt realise it was a swap-shop. Nothing heard since.
    :eek:
  • Its an ok site. But in truth me and my GF have had no luck with that site. Everyone who offered items "changed" their minds at the last min or simply never replied... meh

    i have to say in my area, everyone is really nice, they tell you if something has gone and reply to emails etc, the people i have dealt with have been so nice :D

    To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research ;)
