Our Successful |
Here's a list of the successful international trades that we've made. Some were more rewarding than others. Foreign badges tend to be smaller and less intricate than our CSPs. Many foreign badges lack the fleur de lis, the nations name, or even the word "Scouts". Tyler has a few of these mystery badges in his collection. We can't figure out where they came from!
We almost always trade 1 of our CSPs for 2 foreign badges (because of the size difference). Neckers are swapped 1 for 1, and we've always been happy with the results. We trade away either our Wolf Cub necker, Bear Cub necker, or standard BSA necker.
The list below is arranged from our most recent to our oldest trades. We can't guarantee that these folks are still trading, or that the email links are still good. We can't guarantee that the trade will work either. Remember, we've been stiffed by a few foreign traders! We've successfully traded with the people listed here, and we hope that means you'll have a successful experience as well. Have fun and enjoy the spirit of International scouting!!!
