Hi,

Welcome tot the Cute Socks and a card international swap.

I love sock and they are not that much expencive to send so i thought it must be fun to have a international swap.

In this swap you will send each of your 2 partners a pair of new socks and a card.(I love to read a little note for the sender)

When you join this swap please post your shoe/sock size in the comment section! And when you like you can post a color or some other preferance also. But please note that this doesn't mean your partner will find the exact color or description from you list. Its just for keep in mind when looking for some cute socks.

Take a look at your partner's profile to see what colors or themes they may like.

Make sure the socks aren't sportsocks or sock that you don't like to get.


Users who have demonstrated that they are not good swap partners and have to many bad ratings will be banned from this swap, so please only serious swappers. If you have to many Negative Feedback postings, you will be removed from the swap.

Hi! In Europe I have 38 as shoe/sockssize. You have different sizes in USA, right?

Sharlzie 02/12/2007 #

Hi there! I'm an Australian ladies size 11 - (European ladies size 42/43). (basically I will be the largest ladies size socks you can find! he he) just call me BigFoot :P

ellawitch 02/12/2007 #

i wear a 7 or an 8 (us size) so normal women's size socks are fine for me. i love wearing novelty socks so feel get me socks with animals, holidays or whatever on it. i just ask no toe socks (the ones that look like gloves for your feet) or those little half socks where they come to the top of your shoes (to put it bluntly i have a scar there and when they come up to that point it always rubs against the area and hurts). but otherwise, i am game for any color, pattern, whatnot....

alex 02/12/2007 #

I wear a uk size 6 euro size 39..think imay be an 8and half usa, but I am usually ok with the one size socks, just not into socks that contain a large amount of black on them, thanks! do love spotty and stripey and most things really. :-)

JaneR 02/12/2007 #

I wear a size 9 in US sizes, I can wear a normal women's sized socks. I'm not very choosy but I really don't like toe socks at all.

user6273 02/12/2007 #

another big foot here, european size 42.

for me as well, no toe socks please. i love socks that go until the knees but really, anything will make me happy :)

since i'm new, is a free card okay for the card thing or does it need to be a postcard/self made card?

user5602 02/12/2007 #

Haha I guess us Europeans just have big feet. My size is 41 in European and I think that's a 10 for US. And yeah, I'm not big on toe socks either... or socks with "childish" motives :)

Dieuwertje 02/12/2007 #

Note for Citrus.

A free card is okay when it is a nice one ;). It's just to write a little note for your partner on.

I have been in some swaps where the partner only sends the stuff. And i realy like little notes so i thought a card will do.

Greetings, Dieuwertje

Dieuwertje 02/12/2007 #

I wear size 37 or 38 (European size). Large childrensocks also fit on my feets.

I love all kind of sock Also childrens socks. I wear miffy, Pucca, jip en janneke and that kind of kids stuff. ;)

user4899 02/12/2007 #

I wear size 7 (US size). Yeah, Ive got small feet!! I prefer no pink or black socks -- and LOVE stripes and polka dots -- frogs, giraffe or turtles, would be extra special --and no toe socks. Also no little cutesy things that hang off the sock at the ankle -- and none that are really warm/thick (I live in Florida) I'm really NOT that picky.

jkjk 02/13/2007 #

I wear size 1 in US sizes. I mostly like socks that just have some kind of pattern or design on them, nothing with holidays, animals, cartoons, etc. I don't even mind socks with "duller" colors like brown, if they have stripes or something.

jkjk 02/13/2007 #

that should have been size 10 not 1 !!!

user6264 02/13/2007 #

Hi, I wear size 9 US. I'm a fan of "fun socks." My students at school are always checking to see what are on my socks. Also, I like to buy socks as souveniers when I travel.

rutabaga 02/13/2007 #

i loooove socks! i have kinda small feet (size 5) and like longer socks with funky designs :)

jakfrostwife 02/13/2007 #

I wear a size 8 US. I to am a big fan of "fun socks".

I don't like one's with toes since my toes seem to match the rest of my body (chunky, lol)....

I love warm socks too~I'm always wearing them at our summer cabin and all the kids friends want to know "what's on your feet?"......

Cainna 02/14/2007 #

I'm so excited about this swap! I have normal-sized women's feet, about US size 8, and I prefer no holiday socks (I want to be able to wear them year round!). Other than that, have fun!

marnel 02/15/2007 #

Hi..I wear a size 8 (US) 38 (European) and my only request is no toe socks. I love stripes, polka dots and soft, feel good socks. I wear socks with my Birkenstocks in the winter so cute socks are a must.

This will be fun...I love shopping for socks!

FunToScrap 02/15/2007 #

Hey USA girls, where do you find BIG socks? I have only ever seen the average 9-11 size socks. I would hate to sign up for this and then not be able to accomodate my SWAP pal.

dandelion 02/16/2007 #

I LOVE socks! I wear a US women's size 7 shoe. I prefer funky, fun socks-not particular about color, design, etc.

FunToScrap: I have started seeing women's socks marked 'large' that are beyond the usual size 9-11 but not a lot of them. The last time was at the local WalMart.

user4401 02/16/2007 #

im a size 6 uk and my colours are blue , green , orange , lilac ny of them colours would be appreicated thanks

user6222 02/16/2007 #

I wear a size 6 shoe and I like the colors blue and yellow. I also collect cows or ducks.
Hope all have a great day.

shopinc 02/16/2007 #

I'm a US size 8 or 9. I'd prefer ankle socks, instead of kneehigh socks. But anything's fine with me (:

inamerica8 02/16/2007 #

My sock size is 7-9, shoe size is 7 and I am in the USA. I love fun socks! I do have an allergy to pure wool, though.

lilmissthrifty 02/17/2007 #

Fanfreak 02/17/2007 #

Oh, more "sock-o-holics" like me. I'm in.

My size is 37/38 european size, don't kow what the size is in us though.

user6359 02/17/2007 #

Wow this sounds like a lot of fun. I wear a size 9 in shoes. I teach Pre-K so interesting socks are a MUST! Laff. I don't think I'd like the "toe" socks, but I've never tried them before either. They just don't look particulary comfy to me. Looking forward to this swap!

kathyp 02/18/2007 #

Hello,

I wear an Australian size 10 sock, so thats about a US 42/43. I love fluffy bed socks. Bright plain colours are great.

marnel 02/18/2007 #

Good question FunToScrap...I'm not sure. I will keep checking back here tho' in case someone else knows.

glolinde 02/18/2007 #

Hi! My name is Grace. You can pretty much find the stuff I like on my profile.

user5486 02/18/2007 #

Hi...

I wear a size 9-10 (american) 40 (europe)...

I love kneehigh socks or ankle socks. No color preference or design. Surprise me.

Just please please no toe socks. My toes are to short and don\'t fit them.

Here is a great link to an international shoe size chart. http://www.i18nguy.com/l10n/shoes.html#adult

Hello. I am new to this... It sounds like fun.. I wear a size 8 1/2 and I like pretty much everything...

user6390 02/19/2007 #

Hey, that\'s what we say in the south when we meet some one. We also wave at everybody we pass on the road whether we know them or not. I wear a ladies 9-ll american. I have never done this before but I already know what socks I am going to buy. I am going to buy three more pairs. They are so cute.

Brandi 02/19/2007 #

todsahonchik 02/19/2007 #

I wear size 8 US sock and European 38. Thanks! Sounds like fun!

aimeeroo 02/19/2007 #

I wear a US 9, so regular \"adult sized\" socks work for me. I will be happy with anything as long as it\'s cute, and not itchy. :)

alex 02/20/2007 #

Heck just reading through this page...we should qualify as an international sock survey!!! :-)

Chinita 02/20/2007 #

I wear a 6 1/2-7 size US shoe. I like striped socks-bright colors. I also like cat themes and sheep themes on my socks. No toe socks either, please. I\'m not really into holiday socks that much unless there are snowmen on them. Butterflies and owls are good too. Thanks!

deliolith 02/20/2007 #

i wear a size 37/38 european which is a US 7 and a UK 4 1/2. please no cats, animal prints or holiday socks.

chesterbarb50 02/20/2007 #

I wear a size 8 and a half- 9 SHOE (US). I like warm socks- knee socks if possible as my part of the USA is cold in the winter. I wear back, navy blue, or brown socks to work, but love bright fun socks to wear on the weekends or with jeans. Any colors are ok- no cats or dogs. But wild animals are ok. Flowers are even better. Or stripes. Anything will be fine.

jannikinz 02/20/2007 #

Hi, another big foot here. Aussie size 10 shoes / eur about 42. Please not toe socks or knee highs. Something bright would be nice..I like surprises..

user6140 02/21/2007 #

Hi! I am a UK size 7 shoe, I like stripey socks or graphic patterns in bright colours. I am not keen on animal socks since when I was in preschool a horrible girl kicked my shins all day as she wanted my knee high white socks with the badger on the side : ( Bad memories! I like socks, the longer and more comfy the better (guess I havnt grown out of loving long socks!). Cant wait to find out what my partner likes!!!

user6421 02/21/2007 #

I have a size 10 USA size, so I have big feet. I like ALL socks, but Toe socks are the BEST :-)

user5957 02/21/2007 #

Count me in! Thank you Kimmie for the web site with the shoe conversion table. It really helps to know the different sizes.
I wear a size 8 1/2 U. S. and love light weight socks (I live in south Texas and it stays hot here most of the year)and perfer not to have individual toes. Any color, style, design I love them all. Really enjoy cats, dogs, rabbits, and flowers.

sarachattom 02/22/2007 #

Ooohhh... this one will be cool!

I wear a ladie\'s 11 in US sizes... so get the largest socks you can find! Also, none of the \"toe\" socks as they are much too uncomfortable.

Thanks!

writechen 02/26/2007 #

I wear US size 6.5 (Euro 38.5). I enjoy anything with hearts on them or anything with the color theme red, black & white. Also: I prefer wearing knee high toe socks around the house instead of slippers, especially as the hardwood floors make winter feel colder.

jewels1 03/ 1/2007 #

This sounds like fun, I'm game for any kind of socks, although warm fuzzy ones are my favorite. I wear size 7 shoes (US), so the average size socks will fit.

Clayshaper 03/ 1/2007 #

Woo! I love socks. We are a 'no shoes in the house' household, so fun socks are a way of life. (wink) I also attend a non-denominational pagan oriented church that is 'no shoes indoors' and we love to compare funny socks there too. (grins) I have an average 'size 9-10' guys (US) sized foot, so pretty much any adult size works. My favourite socks currently are a pair with horses on them and a pair that look like someone scalped a muppet to make them. (muhahaha... they're brightly coloured and FUZZY!) I prefer fluffy/thick or some kind of theme or pattern, and please please, not TOO girly- cause I WILL wear 'em, and my friends will giggle. (wink)

user5410 03/ 1/2007 #

I wear regular size women's socks. I love socks of any kind, except toe socks...while i have regular feet i have fat toes g. I like cute socks to crazy socks and anything lately with skulls on them have found there way to my house smiles. I have no preferance in color or style. Thank you in advance to my partners!!

user6165 03/ 2/2007 #

I wear a ladies size 8 1/2 shoe so socks 9-11 1/2 are fine. I love purple and red, as I am a red hatter for fun. No toe socks please. Is there a sock hop on the horizon??

janeausten 03/ 2/2007 #

I have small feet. Size 6 US. I can wear large kids socks or small adult socks. I'd rather not have toe socks or holiday socks unless its halloween, but anything else is good. :)

user6503 03/ 2/2007 #

Hi I am a size 7 hope this helps :) I love the colors teal & pink ;D

user988 03/ 3/2007 #

I wear a size 8 1/2 shoe. I like socks with animals on them. I don't like white ones. I like pastel colors or fibrant colors but with a design. Animals, Ladybugs, Dragonfly,cat, dogs etc.

user6703 03/ 3/2007 #

I am a size 9 1/2 in Us Sizes. I love the color orange, and I like black. Thnak you!!!

Windchimes 03/ 3/2007 #

I adore socks!! Of all the items we all wear, socks are my favorite. I am a size 8 - just basic and average. I love funky socks - my favorite colors are pink, light blue, and most pastels, but having said that, I love bold, bright colors for socks too. I love socks that have on them: Cats, penguins, cute sayings, stripes, plaid, coffee themes, flowers or floral themes, girlie themes, dragonflies - I really can't think of anything I wouldn't love in socks. Just nothing crude or that your grandma could look at. :) I am an argyle lover and I can NEVER have too many argyle socks! In any color!! This is so much fun! I am looking forward to seeing the potos of all the socks people get!

Sweeti8286 03/ 4/2007 #

I love socks too! I wear size 8 or 8.5 in USA. Just normal, average size. I like colored socks or socks with cute patterns like stars, rainbows, penquins, frogs, sanrio characters such as hello kitty and keroppi, etc. I don't like hearts though or toe socks. I like my socks a little longer than just ankle length. I'm looking forward to shop for my partner :)

niecedenise 03/ 4/2007 #

I hate to wear shoes and socks but-- I am diabetic and must wear them all the time. Please pick out something cutsie so its easier to comply with doctors orders. I like all kinds of things except the toe socks and kneehighs. Thanks

niecedenise 03/ 4/2007 #

I have a daughter who wears size12 shoes US size. Yes Wal-mart has several larger sizes. Usually they are not the cutsy ones though. They have them in both singles and packs of several. Also the larger size womens clothing stores have them. Not much of a selection but they are available. Lane Bryant catalogues also have larger sizes. Just be sure they dont just say larger tops for larger legs. that makes them the same foot size just with looser tops. Hope this helps.

MeaghanLC 03/ 4/2007 #

I am a size 10 US shoe. I love socks!

user5624 03/ 4/2007 #

I wear size seven and a half in my shoe size.

uncoiledtiger 03/ 5/2007 #

Hello

I wear a UK 6 which I think is about a US 8.5 or 39 ladies. I really like super cute patters on socks especially bold bright colours.

But contact me if you would like to know anything else - thanks :)

Zanara 03/ 5/2007 #

I wear a us/canada size 6.5 and as long as it doesn't have something that hangs off the back of my heels, I'm pretty flexible.

Liseanne27 03/ 5/2007 #

I wear Medium sized socks, like most here I guess. 8.5 US shoe size, 39 EU.

Dieuwertje 03/ 5/2007 #

I have found a sock-size table with America and european sizes.

U.S. Shoe Size European Shoe Size Infants/Toddlers 3 - 5 18/20 6 1/2 - 7 22/23 8 - 8 1/2 24/25 Children 9 - 10 26/27 10 1/2 - 11 1/2 28/29 12 - 12 1/2 30/31 Children/Adult Women 13 - 1 32/33 2 - 3 34/35 4 - 5 36/37 6 - 7 38/39 8 - 9 40/41 10 - 11 42/43 Adult Men 8 - 9 42/43 10 - 11 44/45 14

Dieuwertje 03/ 5/2007 #

Oeps,

Thats not very handy. I thought the lines will also be in the tekst box.

Example: I have european size 37/38 So on my foots fit American size 5 and 6.

I hope you have some help with this table.

Greetings, Dieuwertje

user5486 03/ 5/2007 #

Hi...

I wear a size 9/10 american size. I love all kinds of socks esp. knee socks. But please please no toe socks. My toes are to short for them.

Thanks...

ginm 03/ 5/2007 #

Good Morning!!

My size is a 9/10 and I like all socks except toe socks. My toes are too long for them.

Thanks>>>>>>>>>>>>>

lilly 03/ 5/2007 #

hello, i wear a european size 39 which is uk size 8, i think...and i don´t like too much brown, but am not fussy with anything else...i´m looking so much forward to this as it´s my first swap ever

DaCraftyLady 03/ 5/2007 #

Hi I wear a size 6 1/2 shoe but I think sock sizes [US] run like 9-11 for that size....I love the color burgundy and pink...but any color is fine with me...I am a reader, crochet, love the beach, Red Hats, and anything that you find is ok with me....:)

user5512 03/ 5/2007 #

I wear the standard size woman's socks (9-11) because I wear about an 8 US shoe size. I don't like toe socks because I have short toes. Toe socks are socks that fit kind of like gloves on your feet because each toe goes in its own little sock, but I have short toes, so they don't fit me right. I love regular socks that have hippie or psychadelic patterns, cats, hello kitty, frogs, lady bugs, daisies, and many other things. I like colorful things, so anything you find for me should be great!

Hi, I wear 6 1/2 womens (USA) but for some reason size 9-11 socks fit me just fine. I don't have any dislikes except those anklet things with bobbles coming off the heel. Standard cuff style socks, and anything longer than that, are most welcome.

cheers all,

Becca

blackdovejanuary1 03/ 5/2007 #

Hi hi! I wear a US women's 8, and I like pretty much anything weird, with skulls, cats, whatever. I'm not too keen on toe socks though. Thanks!!!

wonder2 03/ 5/2007 #

Hi! I wear a 7 1/2 or 8 shoe in US sizes~not sure what that translates to overseas,sorry.You can send all the toe socks my way~although it should start to warm up here before too long,so any are fine. I'm not crazy about polka dots or stripes& fav colors include purple,green,blue~oh,really almost any!(don't wear much lime green or orange though) Can't wait to choose socks for somebody~

brightdawn1891 03/ 6/2007 #

Hello potential swap partner. My shoe size has been increasing as of late. Never really heard much about your feet getting bigger when you're expecting. Anyway, I was a size 7 1/2, but currently I'm wearing a size 8 shoe. Any fuzzy, chenille footies/socks are welcomed. I like all kinds of patterns, but particularly strips, polka dots, animals such as cats and monkeys.

Hi Ginger- received your lovely package of goodies today and love the sox- they are so cute. Thanks so much for the "extras"- I can't wait to try the chili- it sounds quite unique! I will let you know what we think of it. The cards will be put to good use! Thanks again for a great swap. Barbara N.

niecedenise 03/14/2007 #

Marcia1977, I got your package today. My daughter was so surprised to see socks for her. And yes she does not have anything but plain ones. Thankyou from both of us.

arcticgirl64 03/15/2007 #

A big WOW for the packet I got from Jackfrostwife today. TWO pair of socks! Even Easter socks which I haven`t seen before. You have all kind of nice stuff in the USA, unlike my little village. Thanks a lot!

inamerica8 03/15/2007 #

Thank you so much Tenna from Denmark. I love the socks-I just love Hello Kitty! Also, thank you for the candy. I hope I don't get addicted!

jannikinz 03/15/2007 #

Finally, socks in the post to CrochetholicDebb & Pink Ribbon Survivor..Hope they don't take too long from Aust..(air mail)..

wonder2 03/16/2007 #

Half of the people in this swap haven't mailed socks yet~is that usual?This is my first swap&I'm a little surprised. Terri

marnel 03/16/2007 #

Wonder2...the deadline to send isn't until the 19th. Some folks do wait until the last minute. I'm fairly new too (this is my sixth swap) and so far I've received all of my swaps. If you still haven't received your swap when it's time to rate your partner, send them an email note and ask them before giving them bad feedback. Sometimes the mail is just slow. Have fun!

marnel 03/16/2007 #

Wow...received socks from both of my partners today! On our first warm summer-like day it was only appropriate that I received such cute spring themed socks. Love 'em! Thank you Amy and Eva!

Sharlzie 03/16/2007 #

Cathy Jewell & Aloha, I will be mailing your socks out on Monday. Please let me know when they arrive :)

todsahonchik 03/17/2007 #

chesterbarb50 03/19/2007 #

Hi Diane and Jessie- due to a major snowstorm in New England I did not get your sox mailed til this morning (3/19)- I hope they come quickly Barb

jewels1 03/19/2007 #

Barbara, I love the ice skating monkey socks, how funny! They are perfect, because I take the kids for ice skating lessons, and love to ice skate myself, can't wait to show all the kids at the rink! I love the Irish Blessing on the card, too, Thank you so much!

jewels1 03/19/2007 #

Windchimes, you made my day! I made a deal with my two daughters that they could have the two pairs of socks I would receieve from this swap, and you sent an extra pair, so now I even get a pair! Yippee!! Thank you so much for all the wonderful extra goodies in the envelope, you went above and beyond the call of swap-duty! I tried to upload pictures to the gallery, I hope it worked!

user6447 03/19/2007 #

I got my socks from karyn today, so cute!! Thanks so much, I'll have to hide them from my daughter, lol. Denise (Niecy)

jannikinz 03/19/2007 #

ALoha

niecedenise 03/21/2007 #

Its after the deadline and there are still a lot of not sends. please dont wait too long. Your partners will be disappointed and your ratings wont be good!

sarachattom 03/21/2007 #

Sweetie and Susanna - your socks are on the way. I hope you like them!

Sara

todsahonchik 03/21/2007 #

wonder2 03/22/2007 #

YAY!Socks from Grace were in my mailbox today!And I love them~butterflies&flowers everywhere..... Terri

niecedenise 03/23/2007 #

kc-froglady, just wanted to say they havent come yet. snail mail is such a pain sometimes.

alex 03/23/2007 #

Cannot believe there are still at least ten no sends days after the closing date...lately in virtually every swop I have been in I have had to wait until i get my partners name and then contact them to ask them to send the swop...thinking that it is becoming a little too much of a hassle :-(

chesterbarb50 03/23/2007 #

Hi Theresa- You wonderful little package arrived safely and I loved everything in it. I was thrilled with the "Totoro" paper- it is so awesome! Thank you so much and it is great that it is also one of your favorite movies too. Of course the sox and anklet are great too. But the Totoro item is very special. Thank you. Barb

inamerica8 03/23/2007 #

Thanks to sweeti8286! I got my socks today. Thank you so much! I love the blue color-reminds me of spring.

Mamaw10 03/23/2007 #

Isn't it sad that we take time to pick just the right item to send to our partner, and they cannot even take a moment to drop a quick "thanks". Even if they are disappointed with the item they received, they could let us know it arrived !!

alex 03/24/2007 #

I agree mamaw i have left message for my partners i sent them out on the first day we got their names, but they haven't contacted me...neither have i received anything..this is not turning out to be such a good thing for me...the last few I have been in I have spent a lot of time on, but not done good in the receiving stakes...ah well. HAVE a good weekend y'all.

arcticgirl64 03/24/2007 #

I agree with the last two posts. Every day I check my swaps if there are messages if the swaps have arrived, but only a couple have posted. None of my sock partners have posted.:C They should have arrived by now. Ive 32 years by international letter/gift exchange experience and letters/gifts usually travel fast. Two days to and from Chicago-Northern part of Norway is quite common for airmail. I exchange things frequently with a friend there. Of course it can be delayed, esp around Christmas time. Anyway, this is my experience and Ive done this for a looong time.

DaCraftyLady 03/24/2007 #

Hi Jan of Austrailia. I just got your package today. And I love the socks and the beautiful card ...Favorite colors of the wrapping. Thank you so much...:)

JaneR 03/25/2007 #

I received my socks and card from Grace (gldinde) the other day, they are so cute, I love them and the card is great too. Thank you!

res_a, I was almost tempted to buy another pair of the socks I sent you for myself, I liked them that much. :-)

jannikinz 03/25/2007 #

Hi, to JaneAusten...and thankyou thankyou. The socks arrived a few minutes ago. Absolutely lovely.

shopinc 03/26/2007 #

Still waiting for my socks ):

jakfrostwife 03/26/2007 #

I received a pair of socks from one of my partners and I'm sad to say that I've thrown the envelope with the recycling and now I can't tell which one of you sent it? If your my partner could you please tell me what you sent so that I can rate you! I want you to get credit for it. :.)

arcticgirl64 03/27/2007 #

Still waiting for my second pair of socks.

monstermansmum05 03/27/2007 #

I just found out Aloha Quigley-Perry is one of those notorious no sends and scammers. So I will not get anything from her:( So watch out for her!

alex 03/27/2007 #

Not received a bean..let alone a pair of socks, this is the worst swop I have been in for no send, I just don't get people...they need socks that bad to dupe folk, good luck to them! sorry needed to get that off my chest not feeling very kindly or forgiving toward no senders at the moment!

kcfroglady 03/27/2007 #

I received one of my 2 pairs from Neika (anatawaneikasa) :) Thank you so much!

Sharlzie 03/28/2007 #

I'm with you Alex!! It's so frustrating - I just had a look at who my partners were coz we are able to rate them now and not one, but BOTH of my partners still say NOT SENT :(

monstermansmum05 03/28/2007 #

craftbrown1 - I'm glad you got your socks:) Dieuwertje - Yours should get there by Friday(30th) the latest! I sent them the 16th and it was for 4 to 10 business days. I did get insurance so I could track them so gonna swing over there and check in just a few:) Hope you will like them:)

Well I still haven't got either of mine, but I hope to get a least one pair... like I posted earlier I'm doubting on the other, but maybe I will be pleasantly surprised. Who knows we will just have to wait and see:) Hope everyone has a great day:D

alex 03/28/2007 #

this should be renamed as the learn patience and fogiveness swap...for some of us at least anyway..contacted one of my partners who has sent at last, and the other has a not sent and i contacted and hasnt even had the decency to respond, in fact I think she did that in the last swop she was in, easter choc swop and I believe you were the non receiving partner monstermansmum! so not much hope, will have to watch out for her in the future!

Sharlzie 03/29/2007 #

this is also the worst swap I have been in too Alex.. grrrr it makes me so mad when people dont even have the decency to respond to an email.

monstermansmum05 03/29/2007 #

Alex- If you are talking about bonnie yes that was me that she flaked on! It's sad some people do this kind of stuff. They must be desperate(yea right)! Karma will get them.

Brandi 03/30/2007 #

I just checked my partners and one of this is no longer a member. Looks like I won't be getting socks from them. Bummer.

CJQueenSwaper 03/30/2007 #

I received a great package from Sharlene, from Australia. Thank you for the cute socks and note.

TO RAVEN, I'M SO UPSET WITH YOU, YOU HAVE A 4.2 RATING AND HAVE NOT SENT OUT THE SOCKS OR EMAILED ME. This is the 6th swap that someone has not sent me something. If you sign up you need to send out or email to the person to let them know that something has came up. I'm very understanding and very upset.If you can't send for a personal reason them please tell the person. But don't just leave them hanging.

Thanks to all the great Ladies that do go by the rules, It's really nice to receive notes from you and get things and send things to other places. I'm sorry that I'm going on and on. But Raven really needs to understand!!!!!!! Cathy Jewell

Dieuwertje 03/31/2007 #

Hi Girls,

I'm so sorry to see that the swap didnot the way i hope it was going. I'm verry upset with the NOT SENT's. I send them a email that i and there swappartners are verry upset and disapointed. I hope they will send me a email back.

I thought i made a good selection befor starting the swap. I'm verry sorry to see that it was not good.

Greetings, Dieuwertje

Dieuwertje 03/31/2007 #

Monstermansmum05 i recieved your cute 2 pairs of socks today. I think that they are realy cute. Thank you so much.

Greetings, Dieuwertje

CJQueenSwaper 03/31/2007 #

Hi Dieuwertje, I'm sorry, I didn't want to make such a big deal. I'm very understanding I just would like the Ladies to inform me of what is going on. I'm sorry if I said something to upset anyone. I just wish that the Ladies that sign up would follow up. Thanks for understanding. Cathy Jewell

alex 04/ 1/2007 #

Everyone feels the same Cathy, and Dieuwertje you are not responsible for people not sending...you know it's not like it's a hard swop to mail a pair of socks! What is the problem with folk..I still have not received anything, guess that's it with this one for me! Hvae a good weekend.

Dieuwertje 04/ 1/2007 #

Hi Girls,

My English is not that good and i thought that upset whas the best word to use. I'm disapointed that so many people did not get socks yest (I'm also waiting for one). I thought it was a nice swapidea.

After sending my email yesterday i get back 2 answers. One person did contact her swappies because she give birth early. The other no sender says she already send the items. I'm going to contact her swappies to ask if they get something. I hope they did.

So i like to ask you all please put a message here when you get something form you partner(s) so we can see you get something and your partners also can see you get their socks.

Greetings, Dieuwertje

user3788 04/ 1/2007 #

to my partners i am sorry your socks are late i have been ill but they are on there way sorry again

Mamaw10 04/ 1/2007 #

My first experience with swaps I signed up for 3 - total of 5 partners - I received 2 packages - not good odds... Those of you that have been members for a while, would you let me know if this is the "norm" or if it's unusual. Thanks - Happy Spring everyone !!

alex 04/ 2/2007 #

Well Mamaw I have done around 20 swops and I guess my experience is not that great, virtually every time I have had to contact my partner way after swop closes when you get their name and ask them if they are sending, which most of thme have then done. Although I guess around out of 20 swops I have maybe not received 5 lots of things, which also is not too great, even the poetry journal one I am in at the moment, which closed 3 days ago, half the people , including the organiser have not sent yet, and well I know things happen in life you could at least post a comment or email your partner to let them know. It is beginning to put me off, I worked really hard on my journal and sent it off straight away, and may not get anything back again. what is going on with everyone?? :-(

monstermansmum05 04/ 4/2007 #

I still am waiting for mine....

Brandi 04/ 4/2007 #

Still no socks for me! I hope my partners like theirs!!!

Happy Spring! Brandi

Mamaw10 04/ 5/2007 #

Thanks Alex - I just enjoy putting these packages together to send to my partners, so I guess I'll just keep doing it for the enjoyment of giving and try to not waste energy on being disappointed when I get a deadbeat for a partner.

alex 04/ 6/2007 #

Good philosophy Mamaw, I do try to do that and I really do enjoy putting parcels together for people, guess I;m just having a bad run at the moment....I'm sure goodness will prevail! HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

CJQueenSwaper 04/ 6/2007 #

Brittany Warren, I mailed them on March 7th. I'm sorry I'm not sure why you haven't received them yet. I'm very good about sending things out and early. I will mail out some more. I know that Aloha received hers and I mailed them the same time. I'm sorry Don't know where they are. I will email you and ask if I have the correct address. thanks for understanding. Cathy Jewell

CJQueenSwaper 04/ 6/2007 #

Brittany, I looked and I posted a note on the 8th that I mailed them out. I will send more I sent socks that had flowers and a note pad as something extra. Cathy J

monstermansmum05 04/11/2007 #

Thanks, Cathy J. I apperciate you resending, since I never recieved any. My other sender was Aloha and I never recieved anything from her, but she never wrote me back and is a no sender so that really sucks. So this swap was disppointing, so I really hope I recieve this package you send off. Brittany W. aka monstermansmum05

alex 04/15/2007 #

well i give up with mine now april 15th and still nothing!

Fanfreak 04/18/2007 #

Still waiting for mine too, I've got one pair anyways. But I don't believe the next will show up.

monstermansmum05 04/18/2007 #

I've given up on waiting! I have not recieved either of mine and are starting to believe I won't get any! Guess I want to give most people the benefit of the doubt but it's looking pretty grime right now!

sarachattom 04/18/2007 #

Susanna,

I'm sorry that your socks haven't shown up yet - I sent them at the same time that I sent to my other partner and she HAS received hers. Either the mail to Sweden (from Arizona, USA) is super-slow, or they got lost somewhere in transit. I'll send you out a new pair tomorrow. I'm going to send you a message requesting verification of address so we can make sure it doesn't happen again.

Sara Chattom

monstermansmum05 04/19/2007 #

Just got socks from Cathy Jewel. So atleast I got one pair:)

DarkSkullMistress42 04/19/2007 #

Sorry, for not coming over and saying I got both my socks:) both great!

Fanfreak 04/23/2007 #

For you who still wait and to Sara:

Guess what?! I did recieve my socks today!! The package had a sign that it was sorted wrong and had been sent out to Brazil and then turned back, and later shipped to Sweden. :)

So I'm happy and the socks are perfect, fits perfectly!!

Liseanne27 04/24/2007 #

Well, I have received one pair and the other partner's account was deleted, so I guess I'm not getting those socks. It was a good idea for a swap, too bad so many participants didn't follow through!

arcticgirl64 04/25/2007 #

Why not have swap angels? That way everyone will have our packets and it`ll be a positive experience, not a bad one like now.

Fanfreak 04/26/2007 #

arcticgirl64 : That's a great idea, I can angel a few :)

arcticgirl64 04/26/2007 #

I can angel one or two myself. Im missing one of my pairs, so I know how frustrating that is. Its sent me twice, but nothing has arrived here. :( Else/arcticgirl64

EmilyPostPunk 05/ 4/2007 #

I'd be happy to angel someone as well! I see that my second swap partner has nothing but 1s in her ratings, so I'm pretty sure I'll never see anything from her. It's the first time that's happened to me. Boo!

arcticgirl64 05/ 5/2007 #

Ive contacted swap-coordinator about angels for this swap, but still waiting for the answer. Im off for a two weeks holiday next Friday, so I would love to send my angel swap by then if possible, if not Ive to wait till Im back from Japan.
