TUTALS TRADES 

(Trade Up To Assist the Lethbridge Symphony)

This little project will be called the ‘TUTALS’ TRADES

It is fairly simple. I am starting with 3 items.  I’d like someone to trade for any 1 of the items.  I will continue to have 3 trading ‘streams’ going on at all times.   So, chose one of the items below (there are two pics of each item to help you decide), and make me a trade offer.

The idea is to raise funds and awareness for our Orchestra, so let your spirit of philanthropy soar and offer something nice to trade. 

Note, the trade item you’ve offered might not be chosen.   I hope to get a variety of items offered, and I’ll make the choice.  I will then advise everyone what the latest trade items are that are being offered.

At an appropriate time, probably around the 15^th trade, (depending on how it’s going for each of the ‘rings’) I will have an on-line auction for each of the final items.  All the cash raised from the sale will go to the Lethbridge Symphony Orchestra.

When you make a trade, you will get the item you’ve traded for as soon as possible after I receive your item.  (Proof of ownership may be required – if you are going to offer a 2005 Rolls-Royce, I’ll need to know you actually own it! )

I want to thank everyone publicly for their trades; however you can remain anonymous if you wish.

Obviously I’d like to make as much ‘noise’ about this as possible to raise awareness of the TUTALS TRADES and the Lethbridge Symphony Orchestra. 

Please feel free to pass the TUTALS TRADES links on to your friends.

I’m sure there may be questions, so I’ll do my best to answer them.  I hope to make this whole process as transparent as possible.

Remember, all the profit at the end of these auctions will go to the Lethbridge Symphony Orchestra in Lethbridge, Alberta.  The Lethbridge Symphony is aware of this project and does support it.

Some questions:

The question of who pays for shipping has come up. (if shipping is required)?

          I guess the best answer to this is I’ll see what happens with trade item.

If  we’re not talking about a large item, I would like the trade person to pay for his shipping and I’ll pay for mine.

When do the trades take place? 

I’m expecting I may get a few items from which to chose,  so there is no definite time period for trades.  That said, I don’t want this to drag out too long. The best answer is, we’ll just see how this plays out.

NOTE – I have thought of getting input from you and maybe voting on the trades, (engage the participants!) but I need to figure out how to do that.
