I know this is a long shot, but does anyone in Europe want to buy or swap my Purple Rain adventure skirt? It is a size M, would like to swap for an L. Colour is Aqua, a bright and cheerful teal/turquoise with grey waistband, and it has two double pockets, a slip-in behind a more secure pocket covered with a flap held down by velcro. Interested in any and all colours. Could also be interested in selling it. Send me a message or reply here and I'll message you, I can also provide more photos. Thanks!

I have the exact one in the same color and size. I love it! I’ve done 2 Caminos with mine. Highly recommend Purple Rain skirts.

I'm going to be cheeky and bump this up once more and if no interested peregrinas get in touch to swap or buy this brilliant skirt, which really deserves a good adventure, I'm going to put it on Ebay to raise funds for another. Come on, you know you want one! Use the search function on this forum to find posts from happy Purple Rain skirt users.

Edit: Mods, if it's too cheeky, please accept my apologies and delete.

Just another reason to want one I'd say!

Another year, another bump on this ... I still have the skirt and I would still like to sell or swap it if anyone is interested? More info on the website here. This colour is discontinued and the pocket flaps are different - held down by velcro - but it is in very good condition and could do with an adventure! I might be willing to part with a blue one in large too, the material is very soft and light and I prefer it sturdier like the aqua one. Let me know if you are interested! Send me a message or post here and I will send you one.

Hi there, I have a large Purple Rain skirt that I would love to trade! I've worn it but it feels a little too big for me and I'd always wished I had ordered the medium. Mine is purple, btw. I live in the states so not sure how much it will cost to ship to wherever you are but I will be in Spain in March and April. Maybe we can work something out. Send me a pm if you want.

@CatPhillips and @nidarosa - if you end up deciding to mail the skirts to each other I have found a service called Pirate Ship that I use to buy postage for international and domestic packages for a reduced price. I've recently used it to mail some packages to Canada for about half the regular cost

Thanks, @trecile , that's really good to know! After brexit sending and receiving parcels has become a whole different beast. Whatever we decide to do, I will make a note of the company!

I think that Pirate Ship would only work for the parcel sent from the US, but there might be a similar service in the UK or Europe. I found out about Pirate Ship from a friend who sells on Etsy - maybe there are forums where people who sell things via Etsy and eBay give tips on shipping internationally.
