I wanted to pitch an idea and find out whether it is of interest:
I think that it could be a valuable addition to the classifieds to have a thread where users trade individual or small groups of keycaps. If you have keycaps you don't use, you can trade them for some keycaps that would spice up your keyboard. That way, you don't have to buy full sets if you're only interested in using a few keycaps. I imagine I'm not the only user here that have keycaps I don't use.
My idea was that you'd have an ongoing thread where users post what they want to trade. Then, you can contact previous posters to see if they want to arrange a trade. Basically, each post would consist of:
- Picture of all the keycaps you are willing to trade (with proof)
- *Description of keycaps
- What you're interested in trading for
- *Location or possible shipping limitations
*optional
Do you think a thread like this would be useful? I've asked a handful of people in person, and they weren't very enthusiastic about it. Mostly, they figured people wouldn't be interested in breaking up their sets.
