Fair Exchange?

Still fairly new to travel bugs and trackers. I have only found one so far.

Anyway so my question is it fair to take multiple bugs or trackers if you leave the equivalent amount of swag? 3 bugs for three toys or whatever?

Trackables are not swag.

You do not have to "trade" a trackable with another either.

It is entirely okay to 'grab' a trackable without leaving anything in exchange. If there are multiple TB's in a cache, then I probably wouldn't take all of those TB's - but if the cache is visited rarely, then I might consider it.

Unless you know the missions for the TBs and will actually be aiding them towards their goal, I would only take 1 TB from a cache with multiples and let the next cacher get the joy of finding a TB. The one case I would take multiple TBs is from a highly mugglable cache where the TBs are apt to go MIA. A good clue to these caches are ones with a large inventory of missing TBs listed.

Per Jeremy, trackables are not to be treated as swag, and you can take as many as you wish.

 

TB Hotel owners are not allowed to require that you trade one for one, or that you leave one in the hotel.
