Swap history

Being his first swap the other party was understandably anxious (as we all are initially) about sending first. And having been badly bitten by ‘jesuslovesyou’ when I broke the 'fewer transactions sends first' rule’ I promised myself never again to break that rule, no matter what the circumstances. As it happens I bought the item locally for less than the cost of the postage; so it all worked out well for me in the end. In closing I would like to say that Simon seems to be a decent bloke and all of our correspondence was both pleasant and civilised and I would not hesitate to do business with him in the future – providing it is within the rules of this game!
