Description:

Do you mean that the total weight should not be less than 150g?

Because a maximum weight doesn’t make sense to me… if someone wants to send me more chocolate, I have to rate them a 3 because they went over the maximum weight allowed?

And if you really meant “not more”—is there a minimum weight?

Because for “snack size”, I think not of the kind of bars you posted in the picture but rather of this size:

For example, snack-size Twix is usually only 1 “finger” while regular-size (like in your picture) has 2.

And it wouldn’t be much fun to send 3 regular-size bars and get 2 small ones.

The size I had in mind was that showed in the picture I posted. A regular size chocolate means to me this: http://moetal.com/moetal-collection/milk/80g-milk-chocolate-bar.html

The reason I said 150gr: if you send 3 chocolates as in the picture I posted, each of aprox. 50gr, then you get to 150gr. If your chocolates weight more than that, no one is going to give you a 3, obviously. It's chocolate! But I mentioned that so that the package will not be too heavy or too pricey. You're free to exceed that weight, of course.

I'd love to do this swap but it is still in the low 100s here so I'd end up with melted chocolate. LOL

flofirenzie: no worries, since this swap is for Europe only anyway... and if anyone had "low 100s" temperatures here, melted chocolate would be the least of their worries :D

I like ioana's thinking! 2-3 bars, not weighing more than approximately 150 grams. I sometimes hate it when people go over-the-top and send way much more than what was asked for and then get disappointed when they get less in return. This is very clear this way :)

I misunderstood the Regional-Europe I thought it mean regional and Europe and I'm in the US and I'm apart of your swap. I'm sorry. Can I still follow through and send the chocolate or....?

It seems that I'm going to get my chocolates from the same country I live in. I wonder if my partner still can surprise me? I was hoping to get something I couldn't get from here..

@Sram there's no way to drop out so you'll have to send something, or you'll get a 1

xsugarycarnival 09/12/2014 #

@Sram unless you can get your partner to send to the person you were meant to be sending to instead?

Oh, there's an non-European swapper and one who is partially suspended...
