&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Rules and Guidelines&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;To make sure our special October meetup runs smoothly, fun, and fairly for&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;everyone, please keep these simple guidelines in mind:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Labeling &amp;amp; Pricing&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Price Tag Every Item: Please label each item for sale beforehand using tape or&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;swing tags so buyers can easily see the price.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;I&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;nclude Details: If the original ball band is missing, please write down the fibre&lt;font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;type (e.g., 8-ply Wool, Acrylic) and estimated quantity on the tag.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;P&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;ricing Suggestion: As a general rule, target 50%–70% of retail price for full,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Lato, Helvetica, Arial, sans serif, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;unused skeins, and a few dollars for partials.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;The Guild does not mediate or resolve pricing or transaction disputes&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Transactions &amp;amp; Payment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Direct Sales: All sales and price negotiations are strictly between individual&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;buyers and sellers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Bring Cash / PayID: Buyers, please bring small notes and coins. If you prefer&lt;font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;digital payments, sellers accepting PayID/bank transfer should have their&lt;font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;details ready to share&lt;/font&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;3. Swap vs. Sell Tables&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Separate for sale and swap items on your table: Take time to wander around t&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;o look at what others have for swapping, I am sure your neighbour will watch&lt;font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;your stash while you look.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;How the Swap Works: We will allow 1 hour before our monthly crochet time&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;starts so we can sit and relax for our usual Guild meeting&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;4. Stash Quality Standards&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Clean &amp;amp; Odour-Free: Please ensure all yarn brought to the event is clean,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;stored well, and free from pet hair, smoke, or mothball odours.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;5. Space &amp;amp; Leftovers&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Display Space: Depending on table availability, please limit your sales display&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;to one tote bag or small box at a time so everyone gets fair space.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Take-Home Policy: Any unsold or unswapped yarn remains your property and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;must be taken home with you at the end of the session.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
