I have though purchased a bunch of his stuff and it is all quality.

It’s really amazing bang for the buck.

Excellent question. The preferred approach of to use BGG's Trades page. In your OLWLG results, if you click on the recipient's name it'll take you right to the trade proposal page. As long as you have the game you're sending marked as For Trade in your collection, it'll show up in the list on that page.

You have a trade with me, so feel free to send me a trade proposal to test it out. (This offer is open to everyone.) Don't worry, I'll decline the offer.



What's a little weird about math trades is that the person you're sending a game to will often not be sending you anything in return, so it's quite common for one half of the trade proposal to be "empty". That's totally normal for math trades and isn't an issue at all.

Either the sender or the recipient is free to initiate a trade proposal. If you try to do it as the recipient you might find that the person doesn't have the game marked as For Trade and so you can't select it from the list; if that's the case, I'd just wait a few days for them to initiate the trade.

Going through the BGG trade page isn't strictly required, but it does provide an opportunity to leave feedback which imo has value for the community. It also has a spot to provide tracking/shipping info when you're send out your side of a trade.

That being said, if the only thing being exchanged is cash then I'll often skip the trade proposal and just send a geekmail.

Thank you for running this @Susan1430. It was great to run through the process with no risk. I'm assuming that were this real, the next steps would be to contact the people that we are trading with and get their shipping info (or share our shipping info). We do that through messages here on BGG, yes?
