I thought it would be good to start a thread to allow people to swap swatches since it takes ignes a long time to ship them out to us. Plus, I'm sure a few of us have a bunch of swatches lying around after makng our orders.

So here's the deal:

Each of us with swatches that we are willing to give away to someone else should post what they have. Then those who wish to check out a swatch can PM the person who has the swatch. Once they've looked at the swatch and made ther decisions then the new person with the swatch can post up that they're ready to swap the swatch to someone else!

What do you think?

I have the following leathers available:
135 Electric Blue
137 Metallic Gunmetal
127 Navy

^ i think this is a GREAT idea! it will be much faster than waiting for Uruguay mail

royalwink · Oct 15th, 2008, 05:49 PM

This IS a great idea! Lemme get my swatches together and I'll post them here. I'll also try to take a picture so people can get an idea of whether they might like it, and also to put in our leather thread.

momo43 · Oct 15th, 2008, 06:08 PM

Great! Hopefully if this takes off, greenpixie can sticky this thread so it doesn't get lost.

Excellent idea! I'm getting some purples with my order in November.

sandysandiego · Oct 15th, 2008, 09:14 PM

Great idea! I was feeling a little bad about wasting the swatches-I was thinking of sending them back to Ignacio!

I have the light grey #056,
the light grey patent #094 and the
Worn Charcoal #075

this1chick · Oct 16th, 2008, 01:18 AM

^ do we have to trade in order to have them sent, or can we just pass them on? the reason being, i'm a newbie so i don't have any swatches in hand but of course i would pass them on once i'm done!

momo43 · Oct 16th, 2008, 01:40 AM

This1chick, of course newbies are welcome to request swatches so long as they're willing to resemd the swatches to the next interested person

Greenpixie, I am not sure if we should PM or just post. I would be interested in seeing the tinted chocolate, tinted wine, dark whiskey, electric blue, and the patent wine. I would be most happy to pass them on after seeing them. I am planning an order next month, so the sooner I could see these the better!
Thanks,

greenpixie · Oct 16th, 2008, 09:10 PM

Maybe lets plan on PMs if you want anything sent to you, and then we can have the posts in this thread show what you have aavilable to send to someone else?

I have these currently still available if anyone is interested:

suede linings:

raspberry
grey
beige
beige stripe

leathers:
olive
whiskey
sunflower
navy
yellow sheepskin
yellow cowhide
patent grey
patent blue
