Would you trade with someone who just joined and has a small post count? |

yes, why wouldn't I? Unless there is a good reason I think everyone should be given a chance. |

Possibly. I would have to see their activity and as Lotr crown said, have them send it first. |

As the others have already said, I would not decline a trade simply because a member is new to the site. It hardly seems fair to be honest, and if you are a bit suspicious, have them send theirs first as Matthew said. |

Sorry for replying to this late, I've only just entered into the trading scene recently. I'm just not that comfortable with postal trading, Call me paranoid, if it's not a problem with the person on the other end, there can also be a postal problem, or the worry that my postage didn't reach the recopient. Basically the question of reliability. It's bad enough that I have trust issues with mail post trading, I don't want to be trading with an unknown on top of it, though if a new member has something I want I would likely be tempted yet cautious. I put NO because of this paranoia of a small possibility that some douche can just come up in here, put up a fake list, get some honest member to mail his stash, and then the guy disappears and is never heard from again. At least when you're trading with a regular member, although relatively a stranger across the planet, there's more trust. A dedicated poster is less likely to ruin his reputation on the boards by screwing someone over in a trade. When I look at trading lists of regular posters, I take it more seriously. |

I would not trade with someone whom I could not check feedback from previous trades and was new to the site with no background at all tho a fair point has been made by allowing the new member to post 1st and then posting theirs upon reciept. |

Over the last few years I've enjoyed some great trades with people all over the world. However I've had a couple of bad experiences that made me wary. Since then though I have traded with new members/members without trade feedback and as suggested asked them to post first. It's worked really well. So my answer is it depends if they are willing to post first. |
