I just think that would give us pics...of the recipients with their items....and the ones that donated them would LOVE that......and then others can see what was put into the box.....
I like the "virtual treasurebox idea too".....maybe that could be used for LARGE items....like purse carriers....things like that...I have 3-4 of those myself that I don't use...maybe someone else could really use them...
One question...who is paying for shipping? The ones that have the item or the one that wants it?
And how will that be managed....will they send money...or did I get the concept wrong? |
With a Virtual Treasure Chest, the person who possesses the item would pay the shipping costs. Assuming that each member would contribute similar items to the Treasure Chest they were shopping from then if everyone paid the shipping when their item was selected, eventually it would even out. If someone was getting slammed with having to ship, that would mean that you should shop for their stuff 'cause it must be good!

You would only contribute those items you feel comfortable shipping and in return you would get to shop for items of similar value.
