New Year's would be excellent...just a thought though...it might be helpful if some of the traders indicated what they need...not anything over the top...but if there is a mug local to an area that is not easily found in others or such?

New year (mid Jan) might be better with holiday shipping - PLUS if someone gets you a double of mug, or one you may not like, as a gift for the holidaze you could dump it to someone in the trade!
Either way thanks for coordinating this (these) in advance.

I'm IN!
Had a great time with the last one and plan on bumpin it up a bit for the next one too!
My thought is wont the mail be awfully slow during the holiday season?,overloaded and over worked may mean a lack of concern on the part of the handlers...hate to see things get lost

What if we wait 'til after the holidays & do a "Winter Blues" trade. That way, all the holiday stuff will be over & people won't have anything to concentrate on but Tiki!

I think a mid January "cabin fever" trade would be great. Especially for those of us stuck up in the snow. Something to look forward too.

I think mid January would be fine too.
The thing with xmas time is the postage back-up and people traveling.
I would like to do it and in Jan because of that, plus it kinda helps the holiday stretch a bit.

I have given it much rum, and with rum comes great thoughts...and the idea of mid Jan. is indeed the most appealing idea on the board. Yes Xmas is hectic, Jan. 1st is upon us so quick we can't come up with valid excuses why we haven't mailed yet...but if your not together for mid Jan...sit back have more rum and start filling an empty box with whatever...it's not the mug we enjoy the most..it's the whatever. Last go round we were so over whelmed by the creativity and generosity of the fantastic Ca. tiki artist "Eric October"...it wasn't so much the mug as it was the whatevers..and he did send great whatevers. With this in mind I ask all potential senders...haven't you already started a box of whatevers..we have..So to sum it up, here at the Tiki Turtle Rescue and Preserve and Sancuatury..we say "Mid Jan. has our vote....

Had a great time participating last time and would love to take part again. Deadline doesn't matter to me as I don't celebrate holidays/new year.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.
This is going to be "The 2010 Tiki Swap Extravaganza" then!
**Last day to join the trade - January 1
**Date you will receive your swap partner's name by - January 4
**Ship Date - NO LATER than January 15th
Then we should be able to post our trades by month end. Great way to spend a January!
I have begun the list of traders on my 1st post. This should give everyone enough time to take part and hopefully make it the biggest trade yet.
******************WHEN YOU PM ME YOUR ADDRESS*********************
*include who you have traded with before so I can hopefully give you a new person
*feel free to include a few mugs you may be looking for so I can pass this along to your trader just to see if they can assist in your hunt
*if you can not afford to ship internationally let me know so I can give you someone that is not international to you
*if you are unsure of what to send with the mug - although under no obligation to send extras--please refer to previous swap threads to get ideas on extras
