About Me

Update 15 April 2010 - I have done my best to sort out the problem with the handful of parcels that got lost in the mail and it seems I am not getting those 1s removed anytime soon. Tired of being held hostage by some swappers who seem to expect me to send dozens of replacement packages.

On top of that very disturbing experience getting death threats and insults by email from those who think of themselves as Swap-bot police.

To all members reading my profile: Please do get a PO Box to join this site. Some members seem to have some mental issues and you should be extremely cautious.

Thanks to Samantha and the (very few) members who have supported me during this period of having to deal with difficult members. It has been really disappointing to say the least the behaviour of some I considered to be friends.

Best wishes.

Comment: I have had messages back and forth since May 25, the deadline to send was April 20, today is June 12th! I got a great package today Sept. 17, 2009.
Response: No communication at all to let me know you did not receive the package or you did and thought it did not meet swap requirements. Dissapointing to say the least :( I would have really appreciated the courtesy of a pm to let me know what went wrong (response left on May).

Comment: After several PM's, and you said you would resend, but I never did receive this swap. I will re-rate when I receive the cd.
Response: Totally deserving 1 since I have not had the chance to mail the resend. I am moving house (and city) this coming Saturday so as soon as I settle down I will send. Sincere apologies for the delay.

Comment: Never got anything - doen't look like I will. Bad karma to you!
Response: Amanda if you would have got in touch with me (a PM does not cost anything) you would have known my first two trips to a local post office in Madrid went horribly wrong and several packages went MIA. As you can see on my profile some people (four so far) are starting to rate me for the resends. You know, good manners go a long way and communication is essential for this site to work properly. I will resend (I have not done before because obviously with you not communicating I had no way to know you did not receive).

Comment: It's with a heavy heart that I have to rate a one, as you have been very positive and friendly through the whole thing. However, it is over a month since the swap deadline and still nothing. You're not able to prove you have sent, or re-sent the item. I will be happy to change the rating if and when I receive.

Comment: I think it's appropriate to rate now...It's been 2 months and I still haven't receive anything. I'm really disappointed :( I know that you're in Spain but it shouldn't take that long for it to come (I received many packages from Europe fine before). I really don't know what happen since you resend.

Comment: Thank you so much for resending yet again. The tea, stationary, and hot chocolate are great.
Response: You are welcome. Really bad luck for me to have sent the original swap and a resent and none of them have been received (first time this happens to me).

Comment: Gracias :)
Response: Me alegra que haya llegado y gracias por contarme lo del sobre anterior. Quizás eso resuelva parte del misterio porque tantos de mis swaps se han perdido desde que me mudé a Madrid; nunca me había pasado. Un beso!

Comment: will def change if it arrives. i contacted you three times with no response.
Response: That is actually incorrect I am afraid to say. You contacted me once and I replied to your message straight away (I have kept the message for future reference).

Comment: Cheryl meant so much to all of us, and she will be remembered for her kindness and humor by all those she touched. Thank you for joining the swap and keeping her memory alive for us all.
Response: The world certainly needs more people like Cheryl. I totally agree she had a wicked sense of humor :) and such a positive outlook on life, always helpful to newbies too. We will miss her a lot.

It does take time -- and I appreciate your comments on my progress. You'll get there. Just make sure you communicate w/ your partners. That makes it so much better and makes them want to re-rate you. I DO understand. Smiles.

saludos - siento lo de tus paquetes perdidos, suele pasar por estos lados tambien, tuve malas experiencias y ahora prefiero mandar todo certificado, se paga un poco más pero todo llega a su destino, pregunta en el correo :)
