I'm only going to be in Knoxville for about 12 more days (graduating), then moving back to Seattle. Any chance I can move my spot to after the LA boys?

I think I might want in on this eventually. (Perhaps next time around?) I definitely don't have (access to) the niche scents that many of you do, but I would be willing to swap some mid-range 70-95% full bottles for some smaller decants. I figure that's a fair deal. I'll follow this thread a little more closely in the coming weeks and try to feel this whole experience out...

I would love try this. Anyway to sneak in between LA and Toronto? I'm in San Francisco. I have a handful of small decants to contribute most of which are not on the doc list.

This is for everyone is the Swap Box: The box was sent out last Friday to New Jersey and it was returned to my PO Box yesterday. I have no idea why, as I double checked the address and it was correct. Regardless, just be careful with shipping it. On that note, the box will be sent out AGAIN on Monday and I'm sorry for delaying it's arrival to everyone else. Enjoy!

Just an update on the box, Reptilia now has it as sent from WRAdvisor. I believe Amerikajinda is next. If possible please make sure when you ship it that you have tracking just so it's easy to keep track of where this thing is at at all times. Thanks. Also, I believe Parker will be joining the loop after Scugger. I've already got another pile of 20-30 more samples to add...

Any chance this can go international? I'd be willing to eat the extra it costs the guy before to send it to me, and then I'd send it back wherever its supposed to go next.

That could be open for debate, but my 2cents on it is basically a "no". I think to keep shipping costs and timing to a minimum, plus just general safety in terms of knowing where the box is at all times and not worrying about international customs, etc it's probably easier to keep this thing within N/A. Even including Canada already adds complications. Maybe if there were a bunch of people out there, but just for one person, I don't think so at this point. When the box comes back around here to Toronto, my plan is to hang on to it for a few months, add a bunch more stuff while others likely refill their "dump" piles and then send it back around, somewhere around the end of the year. So let's just reassess somewhere around then and decide at that point if that's ok.

man the box is taking forever to get around, I'd figure it be in the midwest by now how the hell has only 2 people gotten it after boo and I also I don;t think its fair addding more people to the rotation once the swap has started those who got the box early have to wait longer and longer if they were expecting reserved samples from people going first sucks. good thing kulata was nice enough to send me my reserved samples otherwise I'd see it next year

Timing - There were 2 unexpected BIG shipping delays, like 2 weeks each, which explains the holdup. I believe it should start moving a little faster. As a reminder... people are supposed to only keep the box for 2-3 days at most and then ship it out ASAP. Adding People - RedLantern just moved spots since he moved locations. Yes, both Parker and untungl were added to the list. My thoughts on that are that this whole thing is really just a bonus added, a "nice to have" idea. So I used my judgement and thought that if someone else gets to share the experience and the cost to me or anyone else is just waiting another week or something then it's a small price to pay. Arlee - when the box eventually makes it back here, I'll let you know what's in it and can send you some stuff. I did try to load the box as much as possible so there was at least some stuff for your interest at the start. That being said, do consider that what you're talking about here is a second rotation... technically you've had a turn, even if it was a little early so the box was still developing, but remember that others are getting a chance to not only get the box for the first time but even partake in a swap box for the first time.
