In my opinion, if someone sends you a ton of seeds, say fifty or so of one variety , surely they don't anticipate you using that many, so may want you to use those extras towards other trades, but I have also found on other sites this is offensive to certain traders, personally it doesn't offend me, and when others are trading seeds from their trades, the only thing I would expect is they let the other recipient know, they are not your seeds, and came from a trade. Since some traders to keep close records of traded seeds, you also don't want to be blamed for mislabeling, poor germ. Etc., so my advice to you would be when adding traded seeds to your available lists be sure to note that they came from a trade, also most traders will say in a note or private discussion about the trade that here are some for you and some to trade! At least in my experience, now as far as number of seeds, that is usually discussed in detail once trade is established BEFORE sending it, let them know how many you have and they will either accept or deny the trade, but really who needs fifty tomato seeds, or even 20 tree seeds, so be open about the number, general rule of thumb for me, tomatoes and veggie....I usually do 10 unless I have more than enough of them, flowers are approx. 25, most commercial packed seeds are coming with this amount as well ( prices are high seeds are low) if they a itty bitty seeds, then I would measure one 1/2 tsp or something larger seeds like peonies and camelias are a smaller trade around five or six, it really all depends on what you have , rare items will usually be smaller as well as they are harder to come by. Hope this helped....

I like graniteland for the best selection. Caution: I believe it's a European website and some stones available there don't seem to be available here. Home granite is also okay, but GW doesn't want me to spell it in one piece due to its spam-attracting qualities.

Yeah, I'm beginning to think $150 is generous. I think they are asking a lot because they don't know brass went out and now its coming back. They could be about 3 cycles behind... Funny, I just called to her to make an appointment to go see it. A man answered. He said "Craigslist ad?". No you must have the wrong number. This is the ______s." I hung up. That is the name on the email from the son who listed it for her. I think someone is selling off the furniture without her husband knowing. lol I sent a note to the son. Told him what happened. She just emailed me. Odd, she also sent a picture. But it is one that I have seen on a blog all styled-up. I called her out on that...somehow, she won't want to sell it to me when I get done. Bee
