Boy that was quick. [QUOTE=Santo Rugger] Santo # 4 - MHaye, I’ll trade you a LOOK at rule 8 for a LOOK at rule 12 OR 13, your choice. [/QUOTE] Accepted. [QUOTE=Oredigger77] Digger #2: MHaye I’ll trade you 17 copper pieces for your black wand [/QUOTE] Rejected. Sorry; I might be open to it later though; I simply don’t know enough at this stage. [QUOTE=ArizonaTeach] ArizonaTeach #4 - MHaye, I will trade a look at your Rule#1 for a look at my Rule#19. [/QUOTE] Accepted. Now how do we go about actually exchanging this? Does Chrisk send out PMs telling us what the rules we’ve seen are? ---

[QUOTE=phi2dao] **Antinor01** , you know you need to use blue for offers, right? 🙂 [/QUOTE] True, however there is no color for pre-offer negotiating chatter. Something like ‘Hey, so-and-so, I’m interested in \_\_\_\_\_\_ but have no idea what to offer you for it, is there something that I have you’re interested in?’ is a good way to get things rolling though I would think. 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/haggle-the-dragons-hoard-closed/447068.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/haggle-the-dragons-hoard-closed/447068.md?page=5)
