Who doesn’t like a pretty pen?

I know many of us write lovely letters to our pen pals-and of course they will be much more interesting if they are written with a cool pen instead of a daggy old biro.


The rules:

1) Read your partner’s profile!

2) Send a pretty, novelty or unusual pen to your partner.

  • No bic biros please-it must be a special pen that your partner would like to receive.

  • To be clear-A pen is NOT a pencil,

  • New and unused only.

  • Please don’t send touristy pens unless they are something pretty special (or your partner's profile indicates they would like this).

  • Please no red pens (unless your partner’s profile indicates this is ok).

  • If you send a novelty pen-it should be practical to write with.

3) Include a short friendly letter (and by short I mean about a page-a full page). You can write about whatever you like-use your partner’s profile for clues about what sort of letter they would like.

4) Send your swap on time.

5) Rate your partner AND comment once item is received.

Conditions:

  • As a guide, the pen should be valued between $3-$7. Thanks Roxswapbot for suggesting we put a value on this swap.

  • You will have 1 partner for this swap.

  • This is an international swap-open to all swappers who meet the requirements-so be prepared for international postage.

  • Minimum rating of 4.98 and the circumstances of any 1s or 3s must be explained with either a note on the swappers (your) profile or in a private message to me before the signup date.

  • You must have successfully completed at least 1 type 3 swap. Sorry that means no newbies.

  • You must have a detailed profile. If you have any particular items that you do/do not wish to receive please make sure this is included clearly on your profile.

  • Please read your partners entire profile before sending items for this swap so that you can chose a pen that you think they will like-for example if your partner says she doesn’t like spiders please don’t send a Spiderman pen.

  • As always, no flakers-that means if you don’t have time to take part in the swap, please do not join or if you do and find that you no longer have time, please take the time to remove yourself from the swap.

  • I think the best part of swapping is knowing you have delighted your partner-don’t you? Your partner is waiting to hear how you liked your package-so please rate ASAP after you have received your package and PLEASE include a comment. If you do not have time to leave a respectful rating you do not have time to swap so please do not join in.

Any flakers, non raters and non-commenters in this swap will be banned from any future swaps of mine. I will not hesitate to share flaker’s names with other hosts in the future.

  • You will need to allow time for postage before assigning ratings. International air mail typically takes 3-10 working days (according to my postal service) but public holidays and other delays can cause your package to take several weeks.

  • I will angel if necessary.

  • I will be vetting before assigning partners and if you do not meet the requirements above I am sorry but you will be banned from this swap.

This is a bit of a lengthy list but I have tried to be as clear as I can so that we can all have a successful swap.

Please contact me if you are still unsure of or concerned by the swap requirements.

Happy swapping everyone :)
