could you pm me those tricks? lol I never can seem to do thisOriginally Posted by Country Chic /img/forum/go_quote.gif
YesI started out with the last silver hibiscus bag (along with a nail polish & wraps = $121) & immediately took a trade for the mosaic bag + another item. Then someone offered 4 smaller items for the mosaic bag and so on... I had up to 13 items in my bag at one time (worth up to $403 before trading down) by taking multiple trade offers & then slowly working them up until I could combine enough items to get something I wanted. It is very time consuming (& addicting). It is hard to stay unattached to the items (the more on the keep pile, the less to trade) & a little crazy because you don't know if you will get what you really want. I guess it is a bit of a gamble, but this was my 2nd bag & I am very happy with both!!! My first bag ended with 7 items = $317 (with the extra item/nail wraps from Elle's glitter promo code) and this one is currently at 9 items = $346 (hoping to combine & trade down a time or two yet, but happy with what I have if I can't). Hope this helps. I am by no means an expert & this could have turned out differently, but my sister (who got me started in all this in the first place - lol) also gave me some tips before I started. It is a roller coaster ride - if you can handle the dips & dives, it is a fun ride!!! I will post pics of my first bag & this one on the pic thread eventually. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!!!
Strange as I couldn't get it a second time for trading purpose. Hot items do change all the time though. Sometimes items are held onto because people don't want to let them go or go for an even trade. Once more get into the gallery though the crazy offers dwindle because someone may give it away for less. I'm not sure how the site calculates it. Whether it's how it keeps trading or what people mark as a love? idk. Best way to keep track is just check the news feed for what items actually trade for and then trial and error.Originally Posted by Shooby /img/forum/go_quote.gif
Hi! Love this thread and LOVE Lbb! Question- what are 'hot' items? What does that mean? I traded down a $32 cuff that no one wanted, for the OMG ring (because on the newsfeed it said it was 'hot') and no one wanted it! No good incoming trade offers, and I couldn't trade it up for 3 whole days!
Insights?
I did. I accepted a purse for some sunglasses once, and immediately felt sad. I offered to trade back and luckily someone accepted right away. I guess that would be harder in your case since you accepted a 2 for 1 and can't offer it back though.Originally Posted by Malia /img/forum/go_quote.gif
Ever made a trade you wish you didn't? UUGGHH!! I traded my orange bamboo bangle and gold leaf earrings for the Steve Madden Printed Temple Shield Sunglasses and I want my jewelry back! :-( Anyone want the sunglasses?
lol..i do feel sad. I just keep thinking why did i do that? lol I actually went to Target yesterday and saw tons of similar jewelry for really cheap, so I thought I'd trade away my jewelry for some sunglasses since I can get them so cheap at Target, but now I wish I didn't! There were sets of two of those bamboo bangles for $10! and the gold cuff is only $9.00 at Target. There were also tons of earrings for like $4-$5. BUT I still wish I kept the jewelry!Originally Posted by seap3 /img/forum/go_quote.gif

Maybe someone is reading here and will take pity on you and offer you the jewelry back /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
