This board is to facilitate the loaning of puzzles among members.  It is used to track the whereabouts of loaned items.  You MUST read this entire post before participating.  By posting you agree that you have read these rules.  Any transgression may be cause for you to be permantly banned from this forum, so understand them well.

RULES FOR PARTICIPATING:

-Respect other members property.  Someone is nice enough to send you a puzzle (sometimes a very expensive puzzle) and you should treat it with the utmost care.  Any damage which is incurred while the puzzle is in your care must be immediately reported to the person donating the item.  Realize that if you damage an item beyond repair, you should pay at least the purchase price of the item to recompense the loaner, even if the damage is accidental.  If you are not prepared to do so, do not borrow the item!

-Any person donating may decline to loan an item to any person requesting it for any reason.  This entire system is based on trust and relationships.  If you request an item and are refused, it may be because the lender simply does not feel they know you well enough to send an expensive item your way.  It's not personal.  Lenders, feel free to refuse a loan if you feel at all worried about the transaction.  Far better safe than sorry for all involved.

-Ship with tracking numbers whenever possible when you forward the item to the next person on the list.

-Pass it along promptly.  Two weeks is ample time to sample a puzzle - any longer and you should ask for an extension.



RULES FOR POSTING ON THE BOARD:

-One topic per item.  If you have multiple items, you must start a new topic for each item even if they initially go to the same individual.

-STAY ON TOPIC.  All posts much be directly concerned with item tracking.  Any posts which are digressions or chatting will be deleted without notification.

Thanks for participating and enjoy the puzzles!
