Hey, what's the "Karma" thing all about? I'm too lazy and hungover to research. I may have some Monster candidates.

    Basically something that you don't feel like selling but will allow others to try/have at no charge. It is put up for lottery to the rabid (and at times cheap) club polk crowd.

    Winner gets the item shipped to them (at no charge to the winner). While it is not in the rules, proper form would be that when you tire of the item, it is offered back up to the club polk crowd in a similar fashion.

    Thats all there is to it. I would like to say that I really appreciate the sellers (givers) of these items and the contribution they are making to the club polk community.

    Its just good karma.


    If you are the winner of a karma item, you offer an item yourself in return.

    So what is the criterion in picking the winner?

    And I don't necessarily have to be a Karma winner to offer up a polk Karma?

    It's up to the person offering the "Stuff." Generally names are pulled out of a hat, or a "Lucky B*st*rd Bag.":D

    which forum does Karma usually take place in? the flea market or could it happen in any of them?

    can newer people with like 100 posts or so do karma/ give things away?

    haggling prices at the pawn (knowing you won't get anything for your stuff in the 1st place) is a major pain in the ****.

    Anyone can offer something up for karma. Who qualifies for your karma offering is up to you.
