Rating requirement:4.80
Last day to signup/drop:February 19, 2013
Date items must be sent by:March 9, 2013
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

For this swap you will have one partner. Please send him/her:

ONE Friendship Book: This must be a quality, N&N (nice and neat). It can be established or brand new, and themed FBs are okay as long as they don't have strict requirements.

THREE Sticker Bags: These must also be quality, and while I won't put a restriction/limit on quantities of stickers, it must be a give and take (for example, your partner takes 3 stickers, and places 6 of her own in before sending it off--not an SB where she's just expected to put stickers in and mail off without collecting any of her own). These can be themed if you like. Starters are fine, but do make sure that you start it off by placing stickers in the bag! It would be preferable that 1 of the 3 be established, but this is not a requirement.

All items must fit comfortably in a business sized envelope when being mailed out.

Please no more than ONE homer total (a homer is an FB/SB where your partner will be the last to sign it and will have to send it back to whoever it was made for)

Please do not sign up for this swap if you are not familiar with FBs and sticker bags, or if you don't have a penpal/swapper lined up to send these items to. I'd hate for someone's FB/SB to be sitting in someone else's swap pile for months and months....

Note: If you don't mind receiving more than 1 FB or 3 Sticker Bags, mention that in the Comments Section when you sign up. Feel free to send more than 1 FB and/or more than 3 Sticker Bags IF you message your partner first for an "okay" or if your partner has left a message in the comments section stating that s/he wouldn't mind extras. You can also throw in some extra items such as stickers, stamps, stationary, etc. EXTRAS ARE NOT REQUIRED. If your partner sends you one friendship book and three sticker bags on time, then please leave a 5 rating--even if you requested anything extra--as they have fulfilled the requirements of the swap.

Minimum rating of 4.8. Again, please be familiar with FBs/SBs when joining this swap. If you are not experienced, please message me, as I'll be setting up a Beginner Friendship Book/Sticker Bag swap in the future.

I am labeling this swap as a Type 3, but in reality, most will fit into a Type 2 category just fine.

I can personally accept extra FBs/SBs, but please do not send me any Label Bags, as I don't really like those. Thanks.

(I can also send out extras if you like, please comment below)

Hi there, I won't be joining this swap because I have no FBs to trade, but was wondering if anyone would like to trade Sticker Bags with me? I'd like to start getting into these (I already trade postage stamp bags). I've done a lot of trades on swap-bot. Please send me a PM if interested, thank you!

I accept extras.

I would love to receive excess of any kind of booklet or bag.

First: Thank you for taking the time to message me to remind me to assign partners/let me know that I was late. Thank you, also, for being respectful about it, as I'm sure it was frustrating to you.

Second: The excuse :/

I am very sorry for the delay. I am a labor/childbirth coach, and was with a client for over 2 full days. When I got home I was just so exhausted and generally out of it, that the swap had completely slipped my mind. Then, as I went to the mailbox this evening, I noticed I had received a decorated envelope (from a different swap obviously) and the first thing that popped into my mind: D'oh! So here I am now, assigning partners and trying to fix it.

I edited the swap to extend the send by date to make it fair by giving everyone a few extra days to get everything written, packaged, and shipped.

You can see that I've hosted lots of swaps in the past, and definitely don't have a record of flaking (on my swaps or as a coordinator, just ignoring/forgetting about the swap, etc). I'd never do something like this intentionally. If anything, as a night owl, I usually stay up until midnight and assign partners at 12:01.

Best Wishes,

Kelly
