About Me

Currently I'm having extreme money trouble, but I WILL send out every single swap even if it's super late. I don't expect sympathy or positive feedback but just want to let people know that I will send out what I owe.

I will do my best to angel in any of my swaps if there are flakers. It might not be super quick especially if it's a heavy swap, but I will do my best. If you get flaked on, let me know and I will angel as soon as I can.

Dislikes

Twilight, religious propaganda, Diddl, Keroppi, Barbie, "chick flicks" and "chick lit" books. Crappy ad/free postcards. Anything by Lisa Frank. Most romantic comedies, pointless movies like Glitter.

I have nothing against anyone that likes any of these things, but they're just not my cup of tea.

Swaps I've been flaked on

Sadly I've been flaked on the following swaps:

by @Mysticsweetness for:

http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/33538

It has been over 3 months. I doubt I'm getting anything.

It's always the swaps I'm most excited about that I get flaked on :(

There are others I'm waiting on before listing.

Kawaii

I'm filling this out for a swap requirement.

Dislikes: Fake kawaii, keroppi, real babies or kid characters, real animals, charmmy kitty, frooliemew, badtz maru, spottie dottie, pekkle, pochacco, shinkansen, kuromi, anything with angel wings, anything that's aimed more toward really young boys or girls.

Loves: Deery-Lou, Chococat, Cinnamoroll, Little Twin Stars, My Melody, Landry, Pandapple, Purin, Sugarbunnies, Tenorikuma, and Hello Kitty.

With Hello Kitty I don't really like tropical themes. As for Sanrio, I like everything unless I listed it in my dislike section.

I'm in desperate need of Sanrio and San-X because I have a bunch of other brands like crux and stuff. I love letter sets the most, but I appreciate everything. I also love deco tape. Cute patterns like hearts and dots are also welcome.

As for other kawaii brands, I love foods with faces, poo, ghosts, skulls, and anything else cute that isn't in my dislike section.

I really have a really hard time finding San-X characters. If you send San-X stuff I will love you forever. Except for Afro Ken, I have a bunch of stuff with him already.

Did you send this?

I received a card from Harrisburg Pennsylvania that was signed from the Kirbjs. I checked the last names of my partners, but couldn't find you. Let me know if this is you so I can rate you.

Please, please, please label your swaps. Especially postcards. I trade postcards in about 4 different places and I hate having to hunt down the sender. Even then I still go through the trouble but sometimes I come up empty because the name is scribbled or something. If I haven't rated you let me know.

Response: I'm really disappointed that after emailing me and receiving an explanation, plus after knowing I'm not a flaker since you were my partner in another swap before, you'd still leave a one. I take pictures of almost everything I mail with stamps so I'll find it and send it as proof that I sent your book.
