WELCOME TO THE MOST HAPPENING TRADE PARTY EVER :)

[IndianJournals]

Welcome Guys and Gals !

Not sure how many guys we have around ..but the women folk are definitely making the room look pretty...

So lets clink our cups (coffee , tea or milk doesn't matter).. and lets gear up for one of the best ever trading party we have around !

We are going to start sharp at 9 am EDT ..but before that I will do quick recap of some of the things we should know, both listmasters and participants alike :)

[IndianJournals]

HOW IS THE SIMPLE TRADING TEAM PARTY DIFFERENT :

1. STT offers a double whammy benefit - if you have traded with a shop which is already a featured on the teams BNR / BNS board - then you are allowed to use your trade transaction link as a sale link on the BNR / BNS board - this way you get the number of future rounds - depending whom you have bought from..

2. Not only will the boards get more sales - but you too get a chance to be on one of the fastest growing and highly publicized BNR / BNS boards

3. You can trade for any value - there are no minimums and no rules whatsoever - neither for the party and nor on the boards

4. New Shops - who are not already on the list can join anytime by requesting the listmaster - you don't have to wait to trade as a pre-requisite to join.

5. Listmasters will be randomly promoting your shops throughout the party on the discussion board - this gets you more visibility even during the party

[IndianJournals]

How does the Etsy community gain while trading :

What you gain : - You get an item without actually paying for it. All you spent was the shipping amount.

What you also gain:- A sale from your shop -and a prospective review - which lets more people know that you have made a sale

What Etsy gains :- the transaction and listing fee

[IndianJournals]

The how to Trade thread:

a) Shop A likes an item from Shop B
b) Shop A approached shop B for a trade request
c) If Shop B also likes an item from shop A or any item that shop A has to offer then both of them are ideal contenders for a trade.
d) Both shops check the price of the items in question as well as the shipping cost. The total price must match - for instance both should be $30 or $20 or whatever it comes up to. Slight difference can be OK if the shops are OK with it
e) The shops buy each others items from the others shop using the "other" payment option.
f) The seller then has to send the item to the address of the buyer whom they traded with within 1-2 working days or the mutually decided time frame

[IndianJournals]

Trading Etiquette's :

a) Approach the shop of the item you like by sending a polite convo - for example..
Hello,
I would like trade your bracelet for anything in my shop.
Please convo back if you are interested..

You can obviously add as many details as you want..

b) If you do not want to trade with a particular shop that has approached you - it is best to send them a polite no , rather than keeping them waiting
For example - Thanks a lot for approaching me, but at this moment I do not see anything in your shop that I can use...

c) Please treat trades like sales - other than not paying actual money - everything else operates the same way . So please do not undervalue a trade sale.

d) We do encourage each trading partner to leave positive feedback as it helps your public profile.

[IndianJournals]

Raffle Prize Details :

a) Each shop is allowed to win only once.

b) The listmaster will come up with any question randomly about general knowledge or any team shop on etsy – totally thier wish. The person who gives the correct answer first wins.

c) Listmasters can also participate in raffle questions and win prizes – but only when they are not asking the question as listmasters
