Ratings Booster….

If you are a newbie or a swapper who needs to boost your score Then this is a swap for you. Or maybe your ratings have been falling lately…Maybe your just a swapper with a great score and want a simple swap to keep it that way….

Simply pick 5 goodies off the list and send them to 3 partners…

*A card of novelty buttons

*A yard of patterned ribbon

*a yard of rick rack

*2 skeins of embroidery floss

*1 sheet of stickers

*a memo pad

*stationary set-2 sheets/1 envelope

*a unused postcard

*2 NEW gel pens

*2 flavored tea bags

*2 note cards and envelopes

*1 new pack post it notes

*1 mix cd of your favorite songs

*1 new tube of lip balm or lip gloss (Dollar store stuff is fine)

  • 1 eraser

  • 1 fabric fat quarter

  • 2 colored sharpies

Yes there are a few rules:

Everyone is invited This is an international swap so some things may not be sent overseas

Please limit the “I don’t want sent to me items to 2�? THAT MEANS YOU ARE ONLY TO LIST TWO THINGS FROM THE LIST!!!! This is supposed to be fun and a surprise! When people start listing and getting demanding it really takes the fun out of swapping!!!

PLEASE SEND YOUR ITEMS and SEND THEM ON TIME!!!! If you can’t fulfill your duties before the swap ends please drop out. Or if you change your mind, please drop out…The send by date means that is the date the items have to be postmarked by. If you have to send late, please e-mail your partners and tell them...

Remember to Rate your partners when the ratings open. Alot of people are new in this swap and are depending on this rating to be allowed in others.

Be a good swapper! Remember it is important to be nice!!!! Karma will bite you in the butt!!!

For those who watch the list of swappers...I will be going through the list after the swap ends and banning people then. So that scammers who were banned can not start another profile and sign back up.

This sounds like a fun swap! :) I'd prefer not to get:

*flavored tea bags - I'm just not a big tea drinker *embroidery floss - can't think of anything I'd use it for

paulavelosa 11/27/2007 #

for me: anything craftie or stationary, please don´t: pens, erasers or sharpies (have a lot). thank you.

hippofairy 12/ 1/2007 #

Please no rick rack or hiphop/r&b cds. everything else sounds really good! yay! fun goodies!

hotsauce 12/ 2/2007 #

Things I dont want.....well I'm a guy and I don't sow.....but I could learn I suppose.

hellojett 12/ 3/2007 #

Hi looking forward to this one. I'd prefer no teabags or rick rack (I'm not sure what it is anyway)!

Bye!

Ashamel 12/ 6/2007 #

Hey guys! Everyone's gotta be a newbie sometime in life, and this is my time, lol! I don't know how to sew, so I'd prefer not to get sewing materials, but everything else would be AWESOME! Looking forward to this one!

FeltFinland 12/ 6/2007 #

Please no tea or lip balm - and what are rick rack and sharpies (for this Brit doesn't know!) Thanks

Erin 12/ 9/2007 #

FeltFinland - Hi! To answer your question:

Rick Rack is simply that wavy ribon- here is a random link to a web page with pics: http://www.jkmribbon.com/wrights/rickrack.html

Sharpies are a brand of permanent markers. They have been the only commonly available permanent-ink felt-tipped marker out there for so long that people usually just say "Sharpie" when referring to any permanent marker, even though more brands are available today. Here is the web page to the most common one: http://www.sharpie.com/enUS/Product/SharpieFinePointPermanentMarker.html

Hope this helps!

glitterbella 12/10/2007 #

I'm joining this! Sounds great! No tea bags/lip gloss! Thanks ♥

CajunLady 12/10/2007 #

please, no gel pens, mix cd or tea bags for me.

FeltFinland 12/11/2007 #

Thanks Erin - all is clear!

TaraM84 12/12/2007 #

Please no postcards or sharpies (and no tea bags as they will be confiscated by quarantine!)

Mags 12/18/2007 #

Please no embroidery floss or tea bags. Thanks!

rlanto 12/19/2007 #

This is exciting. Thanks for setting this up.

I have no restrictions. So, feel free to surprise me with the mundane to the crazy.

Latte 12/21/2007 #

Sad to say that I have to drop this swap because I'll be moving soon, I'm afraid that I won't be able to online temporarily. I'll be singing back if I can online =) Enjoy yourselves ^_^

snpyrunner 12/21/2007 #

Hello all... a bit new to swap bot but not new to swapping in general. I am a bit confused though, how do I know who my partner is? Will the host send me this info? Thanks... I didn't see one thing on the list I wouldn't want, except maybe the stickers.... I LOVE tea!

thanks! Crystal

scolak 12/26/2007 #

Sounds like fun - I like to be surprised and have no restrictions!

kylanicole 12/26/2007 #

Looks like a fun swap! =]

I'm not to picky, but I would prefer no stationary, and please no rap/hip hop/r&b music (tho a mix CD of pretty much anything else is fine =)

JL 12/27/2007 #

I am dropping this swap because it is international and the hostess is partially suspended and has not logged in since dec. 3rd. Too much of a risk for 3 partners.

artsyfartsy 12/28/2007 #

I love surprises so no restrictions from me! :O)

paulavelosa 12/28/2007 #

I agree with JL. I am dropping to.

ninanner 12/28/2007 #

dropping for same reasons as JL and Paula.

artsyfartsy 12/28/2007 #

Good point, I guess I should drop too, the host is suspended. Thanks for the tip.

CajunLady 12/29/2007 #

I think everyone should drop. With the hostess partially suspended, she won't be able to post partners regardless. And what if you happen to get stuck with her sending to you? I think I will be starting a version of this swap since this one won't go anywhere.

CajunLady 12/29/2007 #

okay I started another swap: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/10217

eor1122 12/29/2007 #

Hmm. With what everyone is saying, I think I'm going to drop also.

petpainter 01/ 1/2008 #

Please,no tea or rick-rack.Thankyou so much,Petpainter

madcreationz 01/ 1/2008 #

Seems like a good place to start. I am newbie, and I have no objections to anything on the list of requirements. Anything goes! Can't wait to get my first partners!

madcreationz 01/ 1/2008 #

Oh well I just looked at the above comments and have decided to drop due to the uncertainness of the swap host. I would hate to have my first experience be a bad one. So I will find a new one to join. Later.

blythesnob 01/ 2/2008 #

omg- just read all the comments after i joined. you're all right. i'm dropping. this is my first and i want to enjoy it. i'll join a safer one!!!

petpainter 01/ 2/2008 #

Ok!Ok!I'm dropping out too!DARN@!!

BellaVoce 01/ 2/2008 #

please no pens or lipgloss, anything else is great!

Dreamy 01/ 3/2008 #

arrgghh~~ I missed the deadline to drop....

what should I do now?

Rillaith 01/ 4/2008 #

I believe swaps are no longer auto-assigned, but you could conteact the Admins and ask for them to remove you, or possibly ask for someone to take over hosting it so that the hostess can be booted out but the swap can go on?

cfchai 01/ 5/2008 #

Oh... I also want to drop out... hmmm...

Dreamy 01/ 6/2008 #

hmm....I was going to drop this swap.. but since everyone has their partners now, I think I will continue and swap for this one although only little time >< I WILL be on time ! @

SarahLiz 01/ 6/2008 #

Just an FYI for my partners, there's nothing on the list I won't accept and find a use for! :)

Dreamy 01/ 6/2008 #

Quick question for everyone.

so, I have the Swap Coordinator (temair) as my partner to send to. But it doesn't seems like she is inactive with this swap. I rather send it to the person who she supposed to send to, so no one will not receive the swap and be sad.

Do you guys have any suggestion of what to do to resolve this matter?

Dreamy 01/ 7/2008 #

Yay~~ I got a new partner to send to ^_< Thanks for your message ~

lmtg1159 01/ 8/2008 #

Hi.. I am new to this but if everybody already had their partners assigned and the time to drop out has gone by, why drop out this late in the game? I realize that the co ordinator may not be available but don't we also 'rate' the people who send to you? I am still sending to my partners :} (and hoping the 3 people will send to me) this is suppossed to be fun! lmtg1159
