hey, has anyone on here ever started a buy/sell/swap thread for jewelry used while stretching ears? i'm in the beginnings of stretching, and everytime i go up a gauge, i buy something new. then i'm left over with stuff i'm not gonna use again. anyone wanna buy it from me? i figure if we clean everything well in peroxide before we send it out if someone buys/swaps with us, it'll be pretty good and sanitary.... anyone else wanna participate? it will be fun, and way cool! so i'll start... right now i have a pair of 14 gauge stainless steel cbrs w/ 1/2 in. diameter and 5mm balls. i'll take a pic of them if you want me to... just let me know. i will also have, probably in a couple weeks, a pair of 12 gauge stainless steel cbrs, also 1/2 in. diameter i think... 4mm hematite balls. i'll probably have more... and i won't ask a certain ammt... if you want one of the things i have, either offer me something you have, or whatever you want to pay for it. i just figure it gets expensive paying for lots of tapers and jewelry and stuff, if we can trade or sell stuff to each other, it might be kinda cool!
i have 3 holes on each side. so i just put the widest gauge on the bottom and when i decide to stretch i move the old gauge to the next hole in line. but it's a good thread idea.
yeah, i know... i've been stretching all the holes i'm stretching with them... but when i'm done with that (i'm stretching the first two holes on each side, and i really want to keep them even), i thought it would be kinda cool to get rid of them, to someone who wants to use them! plus i wanna see what cool pieces other people might have too, especially up in the larger gauges.
i'm shamelessly gonna bump this thread, because i think if it catches on it could be really cool. unless none of you other crazy people are into this idea in which case.... well, then you suck! lol... sorry... wierd mood!
I love this thread. I have mine at 8 gauge and a couple at 14 gauge and hate buying all the new stuff just for it sit there after I'm done. Great idea!
I gotta see what I have left now that I dont wear anything anymore.. If I find it I'll box it up and send it somewhere.
yay! i'm so glad this thread is finally taking off!! haha... wouldn't it be cool to see the same jewelry make the rounds... i dunno why, but that just seems like way cool!
I might have a 6, I know I have a 4 lying around. Ill try to remember to look tonight, cause I don't use-em. I am going to keep my amber plugs though I think they-re a 2 and the biggest I got but they were given to me and Im sentimental. Ill try and find the rest,
Alright I checked it out last night and I didn't find anything, though I have a sneaky suspicion they may be at my folks house I'll be over there tonight so I'll check it out.
I have every gauge from a 16 to a 1/2" and I have plugs starting at 4's to a 00...if anyone is interested let me know, I also have stretchers and crescents...
i'm about to go to 00s and i have a lot of reallllllllllly neat 0 gauge plugs, i don't believe in using o rings very much but the plugs i have that are zero are like... stones? like different kinds of stones shaped to a circle... they all look really cool, some vary in size but they're all pretty much 0 gauge, they're a bit long so they don't fall out [due to not wearing o rings] but not super long or anything if anyone's interested?
ok, so right now that i want to get rid of, i have the 14 gauge, 12 gauge, and 10 gauge cbrs. i'm looking for 6, 4 and 2 gauge single flared plugs (i'm so over cbrs, they're such a pain in the ass) and maybe some tapers? if you have any of these and are interested in selling or swapping, just pm me. thanks!!!
oh gawd i have to cbr's in right now and i seriously havent removed either of them in years.... fuck those fucking BALLS!!!
yeah, fucking balls, lol! cbrs are just such a pain in the ass i've decided no more. well, i have one in my lip, and one in the top of my ear, but seriously, those aren't coming out ever so it's all good! hehe... no more cbrs for ears, they aren't worth it!
