Could someone please explain the concept of "Karma" to me. I just want to be sure I have the idea right. Both the giving/donating and the receiving end of the whole thing.

Thanks in advance,
Chuck

    Like doing a Karma here? Or do you mean in general terms?

    A Karma here is just a matter of giving something away, under conditions that you post. usally something you don't need or use anymore, something that's been collecting dust, etc.

    So the giving part is mostly just a matter of passing along something I no longer use or need and would like to have it placed in a good home where it would be appreciated and used.

    The receiving part would consist of needing and wanting to use the item that was being offered as long as I could meet the requirements.

    I would also suppose that choosing the recipient of the said Karma would be a draw from a hat of worthy (as in the opinion of the giver) takers as to not play favorites.

    If this be true I could be cleaning out some stuff at the house when I get home.

    It's YOUR karma, you make the decisions. If you want to pick someone specifically--hey, it's your stuff or you can draw from a hat. I've seen some Karma's (especially big items) where the person giving the item away has asked that the recepient pay for the shipping. Usually I have my assistant at work pick a number, then I go to that post # and whoever is there (and wants in on that Karma) gets it.

    It's just a nice way to pass something on to someone else...

    cool...thanks for making it a little clearer for me. Like I said before I can be a little "slow" at times.
