The Official "Pay It Forward" Thread (Free Stuff)
Long live the mafia!
How it works:
The principle is simple, a user places FREE items on a first-come-first-serve basis. No priced items are allowed. To claim an item, the "Buyer" simply responds to the thread and pays the shipping. Once the item is received, it is encouraged that the buyer puts something else up for grabs (thus "paying it forward", especially before they grab another item - the latter is kind of a unspoken rule). Do not flip items for profit (the Mafia WILL hunt you down!), if you cannot use it simply do not claim it to pass it to another member who can - there will be plenty of other items.
Of course, there is no time limit to place up another item after receiving one - users are free to do as they please and should never feel pressured to do so. Anyone can post up free items on this thread. If you choose to participate, do not go in expecting something in return - you are here only to graciously part with items in the hopes that they find a better home. Do not expect an "equal" value item to be paid forward. Do not expect members to treat you with preferential treatment, do not use this as leverage for favors. This is a giving thread, not one to request items. I know it's tempting, but it can be viewed as pressuring others to give items away instead of selling them (also it can make it especially awkward if someone here is already selling said item). Just be your friendly selves.
Most importantly, I do not want this thread to become a thorn in anyone's sides - especially the mods. They should never have to intervene and "solve" things; be it within this thread or relating to it (shipping, etc...).
One last thing. If you insist on giving me/anyone compensation for any item, simply donate to this site the value you had in mind (mods insert ZHPmafia donation link/contact - *DISCLAIMER* I'm not even sure if ZHPmafia accepts donations so let me know). Ok, with all of that out of the way let the happiness begin!
