You send it to the first person on the list, who uses it for a week and then uses first class postal shipping to the next person. It is not insured, but first class shipping is reliable in my experience.
You allow each participant to lap it if needed, and at the end of the road it comes back to you.
If the stone should disappear or be damaged, the persona who already paid there 10$ will have to suck it up. They are the ones wanting to participate, so they should carry that small risk.
You are the one allowing them to use the stone, so the risk should not be on your head.
If the stone eventually makes its way back to you, then you come out ahead, but imo there is nothing wrong with that, and the stone has been flattened n times after all.

I think I might be reading this the wrong way. Are you saying that the $10 advance from each participant would be non refundable? I guess that would make sense coz at the end I might end up with a wafer thin stone. Correct me if I am mistake.

Just some ideas...   |
I understand that. I might just do that too.
