Default Looking for new colors - anyone want to trade?

I apologize if this is a totally addlepated idea. I'm mostly a soft glass girl, but have been playing with boro on the side for a few years. There are some new boro color recipes I want to try, but I don't know that I do enough boro to justify buying even a whole quarter pound of a bunch of new colors (I already have *quite* a few).

I thought the idea of the Boro-Box that was around several years ago was neat, but seemed to have become a complicated process. So, I wondered if we might be able to find a way to short-track the process and coordinate what colors we have and what colors we want. Is that crazy, or is anyone else interested?

For example, I'm looking to try:
Borostix Blush
Parramore/NC Aqua
Parramore/NC Sea Mist
Momka's Caribbean Coral
NS Opaque Aqua
NS Carmel
NS Green Exotic Frit, size 38

If anyone is interested, I'll post the list of what I have to trade.

yay!I'm traveling this weekend, too, but will be home in a few hours and will post my list then, but I know I have GA cheap thrills slow poke ruby and fruit punch, a pretty good selection of GA colors like the amazon colors and sparkle colors, striking colors, and some northstar colors like english ivy and lokis lipstick. Hopefully I'll have something you want to try.

I'd love to see other people sharing colors in this thread, too!
