I would entertain a prerelease Broughtcoustic 360 and/or other Broughton one offs or oddities, but really only looking for a Quick Silver. Definitely not for sale.

I was mostly interested in just trying it out. I would think someone with a Quick Silver would be into a temp swap for a month or so to try out something I have got. If the Sentinel or Sun Ray doesn't pique interest, I have about 200 other pedals to offer for temp swap. Pretty much anything is in play for a temp swap.
I would still entertain a permanent swap but at this point in time my pref is temporary as it is my understanding that Quick Silver albiet limited in nature, sonically does not compare to what I am offering. I would like to verify that with my tastes and opinions...hence the preference for a temp swap.
Ok. I have to admit, this listing is a rather original approach to using the TB classifieds.
Maybe (if the idea catches on) TB might want to consider establishing a separate “swap to try out” sub board somewhere. Because if this sort of listing does get popular, I can easily see it cluttering up the classifieds section since people. coming here are looking to buy/sell/trade to own or get rid of. Just my 2¢ anyway.
I will say I have done this before with great success....once w a return and once where we both decided to make the trade permanent so it's a great way to try things (after all isn't that what most ofmys want to do anyway?).
There have been some talks offline w a few friends from this site about creating a group for even tourbox trying things out. With all things, you need someone to step up and lead the effort...but I would participate in such a program.

Well it would have to be suggested by someone who is actually interested in participating to have TB’s management consider setting up a separate trade to try area. Possibly you or somebody in your back channel discussion could message an admin about it. It’s not a matter of leading any effort. You just make a request to the site operators. And you get back their yes or no. It’s that simple.
Agreed...I don't think this is something that anyone would want TB staff participating in. I presume TB wouldn't want any part in it either or they would have done it. Ultimately, you need a small network of people who trust each other and are willing to share things that others want to try out.
I agree. I doubt TB would want any involvement in something like that.
Best bet might be to just setup your own trade-to-try matchmaker somewhere else. Membership would be purely by invitation, for obvious reasons. Hosting fees would be minuscule for the amount of storage required or the traffic it would generate. Not a difficult thing to do. I belong to a few private focused discussion, technology, and business forums. They work quite well for their small memberships.
Yeah. Well I’m done since we’re not even supposed to be having a discussion in the classifieds section per the rules:
“… post anything that is not either directly related to purchasing the item advertised or at the very least specifically complimentary, to the seller or the item being sold. To do otherwise is to risk a trolling infraction.
These threads are not discussion threads. Your opinion is irrelevant and unwelcome unless specifically asked for.”
So I nuked my earlier comments - and I’ll delete this one later today. Might not be a bad idea for others to consider doing the same since this discussion is kinda in a grey area when it comes to the TB classifieds section. Who really ever wants to make work for the mods and get hit with a warning, right?
I don't know....I think we are good here. This isn't a sale thread it is a trade thread...and even a temporary trade at that...and we are discussing the logistics a bit. Seems right in line with being directly related...and unless I am missing something, none of the comments seem to negative towards the deal?

Pretty sure the purpose of those rules is to stop people from critiquing pricing. Discussing logistics like this is in no way a form of trolling, and I would say it is totally relevant to the transaction being offered
