Is soliciting a mask trade an acceptable post?

Post by jonnybee » Mon Dec 27, 2010 4:29 pm

I have a popular mask that I only used twice (didn't work for me) that I would like to offer in trade for another specific mask. Is it acceptable to state here the brand/model of the mask I have and solicit a trade for another specific brand/model mask that I am interested in?

It sure is! You can even list several masks you would like to try.

Make sure that you include the size... and whether the home was a smoking or non smoking home.

Thanks. I would imagine there are a lot of members whose closets are full of basically unused, practically new masks and I'm surprised that I've never seen any offers to trade. That's why I wanted to make sure a trade solicitation didn't violate protocol.

I think it's fine to post openly offering for sale or trade a mask you've tried and can't use. And I think it's ok to ask if someone's got a particular mask you're interested in...a mask they can't use.
