All gone now - thanks very much to everyone!
Well, now I can walk as far as the post office again after breaking my leg earlier this year, I'm looking to do some trading! I have a beautiful Willow The Wisp comb which is just too large for me, and three Ficcares. I'm interested in trading Ficcares for Ficcares. For the comb, I'd like a comb or a fork or maybe a pair of sticks or a pretty Fakkare. I'm not interested in swapping for product, or selling.

SWAPPED Really beautiful Willow The Wisp comb, with a repurposed metal vine leaf decoration. Too big for me, alas. This is an intentionally rustic handmade item - I've given it several oilings, but it's still not up to Graydog or Blue Heron standards of smoothness. I wore it with no problems, but it could probably use a little more oiling or sanding, particularly if you have very fine or easily snagged hair.

SWAPPED Black medium Ficcarissimo. As you can see, this has a chip in the enamel at the end. The photo makes it look worse than it is, but I'd sooner swap an item with a bad photo than have somebody be disappointed in what they receive. :) There's also a little discolouration on the silver bottom side of the clip, where the two parts have rubbed together, and a very small chip in the enamel at the hinge end. Could be easily fixed with a dab of enamel paint or black nail varnish - I've done it on other Ficcares I own, and I'd do it on this one, but I find I'm wearing black hair toys far less since I started growing out my natural colour. Failing that, think of it as a fixer-upper? If you've been wanting a Ficcare to paint your own design on, now's your chance!

SWAPPED Pink stripe large Max. Please note this is the kind with three stripes all of the same pink, not the kind with three different shades. Got this in a swap from lovely Zaftig2k - she treated it very carefully and so have I. There is a tiny bit of discolouration to the underside, but otherwise no marks and no chips. Only swapping because I have another one I wear more.

SWAPPED Orange lotus large Max in very good condition. Not sure I want to swap this one at all, to be honest, but I figured I'd see if anyone had anything I liked better. :)
Looking for large or medium Maxes or Ficcarissimos, and medium in any other kind of clip. Not really interested in swapping for hairbands - I've tried Ficcare hairbands and they don't really suit my face. I like pretty much all colours, and I'm particularly interested in the new curvy Maxes and in plain silver and gold Ficcarissimos, but whatever you've got, try me!
I'll be posting from the UK, but I'll trade with members anywhere. Items will be sent carefully packed, either in a box with bubblewrap or a padded bag with bubblewrap. Please note I won't be able to get to the post office until Monday. :)
Oh, forgot to mention - I've been looking for a Graydog 'Moss' fork, preferably a three-prong, for years, so if you have one of those to trade I'd be very willing to trade it for any of these things here.
Come on, nobody's got a medium or large silver or gold Ficcarissimo and wants one of these babies? I also might be interested in Papadonh or Ketylo 5" or 6" sticks, or Graydog sticks, forks or barrettes. :)
