The swap: Michael Miller's desk
And so to trade number four: Michael Miller was an early bidder for the blue pencil, in exchange for a fantastic range of 14 Kinder Egg toys which were sitting on top of his computer monitor. He didn't get a picture to the email address (saturdayguardian@googlemail.com) in time, however, and he lost out in the end.
Undaunted, he has come back to make a play for the penguin posing pouch, offering to swap a handsome ex-local authority desk, in brown, which he claims "measures 1.8m by 80cm and is health and safety assessed as being of the correct height to avoid being sued".
I have accepted. Barely 24 hours in, and we're already up to furniture. Any takers for the desk? To sweeten the pot the Guardian will offer free delivery within the UK. Overseas bidders, you may have to sit this one out.
The actual physical shipping of this stuff obviously can't keep up with the lightning speed of these good faith transactions, but Chris Greaves from Toronto, your blue pencil is on its way.
