So have at it people! We said 15$ limit.
Everyone be nice. Don't send anything dead or ****y or mean.
I am exchanging with Meluzynn as I didn't want to speak for you guys with regard to shipping overseas.
Happy Holidays!!!

i really did draw these out of a hat (er dog toy)

fleurdejoo · Oct 24, 2012

Zero replies!?

Come on guys!

Ckowsky · Oct 24, 2012

I'm interested!

fleurdejoo · Oct 24, 2012

Yay!!! Mantid42, givin' some love!

yen_saw · Oct 24, 2012

I like gift

so i will play..... how does it work?

angelofdeathzz · Oct 24, 2012

Sounds like a interesting idea, but with the new 2 day cities popping up all over on express shipping I would hate for peoples gift (if it was a mantis or live?) to arrive dead, 3 day+ heat packs would need to be used and mentioned in the gifting thread before hand, it wouldn't be a very Merry X-mas with a little frozen body in the box. Just though I'd bring that into the conversation to be pondered on.

And we would need a list of people that are in, to decide on how to proceed with who gives to who, like picking names from a hat or what ever?

fleurdejoo · Oct 24, 2012

How does it work?

Good question.

As soon as I'm sure we have enough people I will draw names for people or something like that.

We will have a limit like 15$ maybe???

Thoughts?

People are gonna have to be responsible for their own shipping knowledge.

Also you guys can send stuff that isn't a mantid you know?

Nobody send me a bug!!!

I can't feed anymore!

arh... i was hoping to get more free time

Sure whatever is affordable.

Ckowsky · Oct 24, 2012

Sounds like a good idea! I'll take any extra mantids , haha.

Ckowsky · Oct 24, 2012

You might just have to add a bit more rules though, on what is or not allowed.

angelofdeathzz · Oct 24, 2012

Yeah, they will need to be responsible for they're own shipping for sure, I was just mentioning how the mail has slowed down as maybe not everyone knows? And its supposed to be a cold winter.

yen_saw · Oct 24, 2012

Best not to send perishable item........

fleurdejoo · Oct 24, 2012

What do you mean I need to add more rules about what is or not allowed?

It's a simple gift exchange I think. What am I missing?

Don't send anything insulting, crude, ****y, or that may die in cold weather. Don't send anything dead um does that about cover it?

If you say you're gonna do it and then you don't and somebody who bought a gift doesn't get one, you will be publicly humiliated by all the rest of us?

patrickfraser · Oct 24, 2012

I'm in for it. I prefer things in little blue boxes. Maybe $15 could get me the box? :lol:

aNisip · Oct 24, 2012

So no live mantises? Just ooths or the item you wish to send by itself (not including packaging) that is at least 15$? And appropriate items like she said...(Jude)...

sinensispsyched · Oct 24, 2012

I would be in, but I'm under strict maternal influence (quite simply, my mom's a tough nut to crack). Accepting free stuff, though

Ckowsky · Oct 24, 2012

Yes , that was what I meant , Jude.
