    I'm not going to become a big trader. I hate having to ship stuff. BUT I do have a bottle of Jester King Boxer's Revenge that I would like to trade.

    Would it be ok to start a trade thread with Houston area only in the title?

    Thanks.

    You can start a trade thread in the ISO:FT forum asking for an "in person only" trade in Houston like this:

    IP Houston_FT: Jester King Boxer's Revenge_ISO:______

    Add to your post : "IP Only (In Person Only), Houston area" is the way to do it, and yes it is fine, and there are plenty of other folks do it that way. That said, you will be limiting yourself to a pool of traders who have the same distro as you do, so your chances of getting something you don't have/can't get are lower.

    Thanks. I didn't think it would be a problem, but just wanted to make sure.... I'm a rule follower!

    That makes sense... but I'm new to this game, so there should be a fair amount of people with stuff I don't have. Good insight though and thanks!
