Description:

This is my first time hosting, so play nice everyone. :P

This swap is fairly self explanatory:

  • Buy a kawaii pencil case, coin pouch, make up bag (whatever you like, maybe consult your partner about what they would like too haha)

I am not putting size limits on the pouch/pencil case but it should be bigger than holding only one pencil haha, but doesn't have to be as big as those awful tartan pencil cases we all had in primary school. LOL does anyone remember those??

  • Fill it with kawaii goodies (stickers, stationary, charms, lollies, accessories - anything!!)

  • Send it off to your partner (haha that's the whole point of swapping isn't it?)

Other info:

  • It's not compulsary to send stuff from your partner's profile, but if they have something like "I absolutely HATE (kawaii character x)" maybe don't send them anything of that character, basically in the spirit of being a good swapper have a look at their profile, but don't feel like everything HAS to be from there

  • I'm going to say non branded stuff and non japanese stuff (eg Korean Hello Kitty etc) is OK for this swap, as I'm sure we're all aware how expensive kawaii things can be in Australia - although please don't send really obvious knock-offs

  • Also, if you can avoid it (I know in spite of my last point) please avoid sending stuff like the Hello Kitty stuff you can buy at Target. Idk it just seems kinda silly to spend money sending stuff that is easily available to your partner. This isn't a hard and fast rule though.

  • I'm not putting a dollar amount, as I know kawaii stuff in Australia is quite expensive - but this is a decent sized swap - if you can't affor to commit to it, don't sign up.

  • Stuff from your stash is OK, but please don't send your cast offs.

  • Handmade is OK too, but check with your partner first.

Rules:

  • Don't flake!! I can't afford to angel this swap, so please don't flake. If people do, I will ask eiko to remove them from the group. Sorry!

  • If you will be sending late (with a good reason ofc ourse) please contact your partner BEFORE sendouts. It is the responsibility of the sender to offer good communication, not for the receivier to have to chase them up.

  • Only swappers with a 4.9 rating or above and AT LEAST 3 ratings for mail swaps or 5 ratings if you only have email and postcard swaps

If you do not meet this requirements but would really like to swap, contact me and if you can show me feedback from another website to show you are trustworthy (eg ebay, craftster etc) I will let you join.

I will ban anyone who seems dodgy - I have recently been flaked on by 4 people (out of only 16 swaps) and I know how sucky it is, so I want to avoid this happening to anybody else.

ALSO!!!! If you haven't logged in within 5 days before signups close (ie September 13th) I will ban you. This is just a flakage prevention method. If there is a reason why you wont be able to do this, please PM me beforehand and you'll be safe. :P

edit: I also forgot to say, if you have ANY no sends I will ban you. I don't care if it happened 10 months or 10 minutes ago, it's still a no send and it really miffs me when people keep on swapping without making up for no sends. If you did send and have proof but the person dropped off swapbot, never rerated etc, PM me with your situation.

I know I probably seem like a huge bitch making all these rules, but I'm just really nervous about flakers as this is my first time hosting a swap.

Any questions, or comments don't hesitate to contact me. As I said this is my 1st time hosting, so I am open to changing the requirements and stuff if people see them as unreasonable.

giraffeandrabbti 09/ 2/2008 #

ooh kawaii kris kringle ^__^ ... except it actually should be acronymed to KKK. :O

!!!! could be awkward. let's avoid that. but the idea is awesome !!

giraffeandrabbti 09/19/2008 #

Whoooaaa...what I meant was "Kawaii Kris Kringle" could be shortened to KKK - let's avoid that!! :P

eiko 09/19/2008 #

HAHAHA - omg imagine writing that on our packages !

KKK SWAP

i think we'd all end up on anti-terror government watch-lists ^-^;

giraffeandrabbti 09/20/2008 #

yep, i have a feeling we definitely would be :P on the plus side, they'd round us up and we could talk kawaii in the holding cell cheeheehee

eiko 09/22/2008 #
