On a cliff in the desert

I would like to join but I am a new grower. All I have to contribute are porcelain doll and Cinderella pumpkin seeds that I grew for JOLs last year.

Maybe you should give a few hints of the format. Looks like there are a few new growers that might not know how it works.

wow....nice response indeed.....

guess i better give everyone the 411..

here is how the swap works.....keep in mine this all for fun...and all trades are final....it is up to you to make any and all trades happen

if you would like to get in the swap....you have to email me....mattwiney@yahoo.com....with a seed or seeds you would like to put up for swap

exp. - bnot will email me....would like to trade a 1810 werner....on the night of the swap i will post bnot is up with moby on deck

i will then post bnot has a 1810 werner up for swap

1/28/2018 1:43:29 PM

Rapid City, SD

this all happens live in the chatroom

now everyone starts to make offers.....no money is allowed, but anything other is fine to trade.....stamps, seeds, old tie....whatever

you will get a couple minutes to look over the offers posted so be a good plant to have a pen and paper or be good at copy and pasting.....lol

once the time is up...i will announce time.....pick one of the offers now please.....bnot will pick moby....at this time both parties post there emails and make this trade happen

i will do my best to keep records of everything in case your forget...

so again....once a seeds is put up for swap....it has to be swapped.....no backing out

there have been so great swaps over the years and seems to be a good time also.....chatting is allowed

always a good idea to give hints of what you are looking for too.....bnot might say....looking for long gourds seeds for the 1810 werner

any questions....email me....mattwiney@yahoo.com

1/28/2018 1:49:48 PM

Rapid City, SD

so once you have selected you choice....both parties post emails....and email each other with your swaps....include mailing address....and make it happen....

that is it

see ya in the seed swap chatroom feb 24th at 6pm est. time

Sounds like a good time. I guess I have to go through my inventory and see what I can afford to not grow.

6pm est. time...is that the same as 6pm eastern time?

1/28/2018 7:07:38 PM

Griffith, In

One question Matt??? Do you want to do this so early ,,,my time for that is 5pm,,,yours 4pm??? Did you consider alittle later , more in the early evening??

1/28/2018 7:13:33 PM

Oak Grove, Mn

i like earlier..i wake up at 3 am..so early is better for me..that is why I was asking about the time zone. Looking at the calendar Feb 24th is a saturday...so it doesn't really matter that much to me. I can mess up my sleep schedule on the weekend.

1/28/2018 7:18:52 PM

Rapid City, SD

lol......i meant 6pm mt. time or 8pm eastern time.....that work better?

1/28/2018 7:47:07 PM

Griffith, In

That is more like regular auction time,,,works better,,,thank you!!!!

1/28/2018 8:35:35 PM

I'm in. Another question. If you have multiples of the same seed to trade are you still limited to choosing one person to trade with or could you make multiple trades?

1/28/2018 8:52:58 PM

Dillonvale, Ohio

What if you don't like any of the offers? I could see that happening.

1/28/2018 10:18:09 PM

Rapid City, SD

well we usually have 3 rounds......this way you can break them up...

1/28/2018 10:57:41 PM

Rapid City, SD

in the 12 years i have been around with this swap....there has only been one issue....and it was resolve quickly....i have seen some of the tops seeds swapped over the years and most of these tops seeds were not up for swap....they were offered for what was up for swap....so one really never knows what offers you may end up with
