Mike, It's a flexible system- even if you mish-mosh it. Every catagory could be from a different vendor and be something different, as long as buying it in bulk made economic sense and there was enough interest to share it- hence the term 'co-operative swap'.
The first could be cheap dubbing boxes, the second an elk hide, 3rd beads, and so on. The idea is to find something that makes sense to share, such as the Whiting saddles.

I would be interested but boy I am fairly well loaded. Still I bet I can think of something. In beads, I have a bunch but I have pretty well switched to using tungsten. I figure if it needs to get down help it. I could use a few hooks in specialized sizes and types. Let's see where it goes. I know the Mad Scientist. His prices are already low but if there is something there I could ask about bulk (i.e.dubbing), I have met the Fish Guy who has hooks. I am not sure what his prices are compared to Hagen's but I could see. So I guess we need to see if there are areas of interest and then get a group for that interest.

(working on a 10-person swap basis normally, not maximum or minumum) It's like a football pool for signing up. Don, I'd like to see your chart. I might be interested in a swap sometime, although I can't think of a bloomin' thing I need. Can you send it to me?
