Cookie exchange by mail!

OK, I've had this idea in my head for quite awhile: a cookie exchange by mail!
Here's how it would work:
Everyone (say, fifteen people) would sign up, and they would figure out the cost of a 2 pound priority mail package from my place (Buffalo NY 14210) to theirs (insert your own zip code here).
People would then bake say, fifteen dozen cookies of the same type. So I would bake fifteen dozen sugar cookies, Jane would bake fifteen dozen chocolate chip, etc. And then they would send fourteen dozen of them to me, individually bagged in one-dozen-per-bag lots... and I would send out one dozen of each type to each of you, making fourteen dozen cookies, different kinds, one dozen of each type, and we would have lots of different cookies for the upcoming holiday season!
My sister has done this locally, and it ends up being really fun.
Any takers? I'm setting a cap on twenty replies. So the first twenty people that reply can get in on this. If it works out well we can do it again.
