I agree, maybe we should hold off untill the weather warms up (unless the people trading are willing to up their shipping to overnight) voluntarily of course, tghis is suppossed to be fun not a hey lets kill these by sending them second day in cold weather....

as for pics .. well , everything i have recieved and sent is dead.
Jan 2nd or 3rd work's for me, or when you want! ...I'll send overnight......any ideas on how to send and in what ......should I do heat pack's?

we were using USPS priority so it would be a cheap way to swap, the thermos is one thats been through several trades at SWF.com so everyone can autograph it.

It cost around $20+ for 2nd day and $40+ for overnight. Big differnce. Summer would have been alot better, and heat packs are a must. One of the two trades I recieved made it the other was DOA.
