docile tapeworm | 4,196 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I’d like to join. Is it ok if I steal everything in the box once I get it and just send a box full of used crayons and kids toys to the next person? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wow, thanks. I had no clue magazines weren't allowed. I would have actually assumed the USPS would have considered magazines the exact type of media to classify as "media" for media mail. In fact, I also assumed that media mail was used because media could be shipped more cheaply because minor puncture marks or folding of some media wouldn't cause much issue.

Splain | 2,560 Editorials Team · Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 We should finalize the rules before starting, including a list of participants. - Mailing a large flat-rate box currently costs $19.95. US only? - Get on the list by ______ (piping up on this thread? Providing proof of trust/credibility?) - Order of recipients is determined randomly from everyone who signed up for each round. - The box returns to the original sender (Mae247) before a new round is started. When you receive the box: - Take a picture? - Sign the paper? - Keep whatever you want from the box, as long as you add items of your own to maintain the approximate value of the box. (strict GVN/PC comparison? A limit to how much you take so that nobody cleans the box out?) - Items must be video game related but do not necessarily need to be actual video games. - No crans - Send the box within a week of receiving it, to the next recipient on the list. Exchange addresses through PM. It would be a little hilarious if people tossed in a few crayons as a joke, and then had to stock the box with increasingly valuable items to offset the space taken up by the crayons, until it comes back to Mae247, chock full of crayons and a single copy of Stadium Events. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mae247 | 207 Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 Writing rules as I type this. If you have any input on a few rules that would be helpful. Send me a pm with what rule you have and we can discuss it over pm. Just reply to this tread and simply say “pm sent”. Thanks and this is going to be awesome!

Mae247 | 207 Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 I will determine who gets the box and when they get the box randomly from a drawing this coming Tuesday or Wednesday of this coming week. I know everyone has already asked but if I do not recognize your name for NA (also if you had no transaction history there) then send me a pm with proven links to your credit (no not your personal credit score) lol. you can also have someone with proper credit vouchers for you via pm to me. 0a-z. (haha) Yes we will have rules to simply have any questions answered and to keep this awesome piece of sageness moving along without issue. Now, a few rules: 1. The flat rate box (only through USPS) will be able to be kept for a max of 3 days. (If you get the box and the 3rd day is a Sunday you will have 4 days. (PM me if other situations arise such as a holiday.) 1a. I am only giving 3 days due to the fact that I want to include 8-12 people on this first train and don’t want this to take months. 2. In the box will be a piece of paper. On this paper you will write down your username (and first name if you want to as well), date the box was delivered, what you took from the box, what you added to the box, (pictures of what you put in the box will be posted on the new forum post once I transfer the rules over to it). You will sign your username (and first name if comfortable). 2a. Let’s be fair to fellow sages by keeping the value as close as possible when you take and give. Yes this is a fun box but let’s not take $100 worth of stuff and only give $10 back (crazy to think this box will be worth that much but can not wait to see!) I may have a vote on if I need to have an imposed limit on amount of items that are taken out of the box. 3. Once you get the box you will post in the thread that you received it. 3a. You will pm the next person on the list with a tracking number ( also don’t put your personal address in the main thread, that is in pm as well). You will also pm me the tracking number. 3b. Once you send out the box post in the thread “SENT”. This is a work in progress. Pm me if you have any suggestions to changes for what I’ve written as well as if anything needs to be added. Don’t be shy with what you suggest. Just don’t hurt my feelings Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutling | 31 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 That sounds pretty good. Maybe rule for the contents? Like is all video game related stuff allowed, games, manuals, boxes, figures/toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
