Let me know if you think any of the rules need amending. I think there should be a minimum number of quality posts rule in this as well. Say 40 quality posts and a certain time aboard the TSF ship. Just sayin' Londonbus1 |

I sent out a message to all members with a link to this thread.
I think Canadianphilatelist means retail price, something that would cost you 5-10 bucks to pick up, even if it has a CV of say 20 bucks.

Not going to spam forums to join in, and really unsure why there needs to be this posting requirements to get involved. |

I have no problem with reducing the # of post, but I do feel that participants should be members for at least a month.

Retail value is dependent on the retail outlet, the country, and many other things...anyway good luck with it. it's a worthwhile sentiment. |

The purpose of a minimum post (or length of membership) requirement is to help ensure that participants can trust that anyone who does sign up will actually send something. If I was participating, I would feel uncomfortable if I was assigned to be a secret santa to someone who had signed up just a few days before and hadn't posted anything. |
