Big Ed Surf Memorial Take-a-Penny, Leave-a-Penny Trade Post
...one man's trash is another's treasure, or watch giveaway chain mail.
I have come up with a new give-away game we all can participate in. We all have the watch drawer full of "misfit" watches, either not our style, broken, or no longer worn and not worth selling. Here is a way to move them on to happier homes:
-One person will list the watch as a give-away. This watch can be broken, need battery, whatever. Any condition is fine!
-If anyone wants it, they must step forward and make a post saying they will take it by replying to the thread. First come, first serve!
-At that point I will lock the thread until the watch is delivered to its new home. Once I receive notice that the watch has arrived, I will unlock the thread, the new owner now MUST list a watch from their boxes to be given away. Then repeat the above process.
The Rules:
Post a pic and adequately describe the watch.
Mail it to the new owner via a traceable method.
No catch and release, if the watch is not to your liking, you must keep it and try to give it away at another round.
I may change the rules as needed for logistics.
I think that is it. Have fun. I will start:
