I would just like to mention that my offers #3and #4 are still standing. They are:

phi2dao #3: **Antinor01** : I will trade you my Platinum ring with ruby for a look at your rule #1 or #17 and your Green potion.

and

Phi2dao #4: Open Offer: I will trade a look at one of my rules and my Gray wand for a look at one of your rules that I have neither owned nor seen and one of your potions.

By they way, if anyone has rules relating to the value of pieces, I will consider trading with them for a look.

I countered offering a garnet in place of the potion. I don’t know enough about potions yet to give them away.

[QUOTE=chrisk]

If you don’t have the scroll, then all you have to offer in trade is hearsay - somebody else can buy, but they’re trusting in your reputation. I won’t insist that you PM them the true rule, and everybody should bear that in mind.  
[/QUOTE]

I don’t see how hearsay can be monetized.

Not sure if you are offering to trade looks or actual scrolls. In either case, I would accept and choose rule 2, but you need to clarify. I will not trade my copy of the scroll for a mere look at yours, though

What’s the benefit of switching scrolls if you want to keep them secret? They’re secret as it is.
