Comment: I hate to have to leave this rating, but any communication regarding this swap has only been due to my initiation (which was already *after* the 'send by' deadline had passed); despite reassurance to the contrary, I regret to say that the swap still remains 'unsent'/unrecieved :-( I am aware that you are trying to 'catch up' however, for which I admire you; of course, should I ever recieve anything, I shall happily re-rate!

Comment: 3/18/2011~Never got the replacement package you promised...I gave you alot of time to get it to me but at this point I am giving up all hope that you will make it right....*****ORIGINAL RATING: I am sad to have to rate a 3 but the package you sent did not come close to the required amount...the swap called for $7-10 and I received less than $3 in candy and most of it was smashed up since it was mailed in a regular envie... the resend should have arrived by now and it hasn't...and I need to archive the swap... once it arrives I will update the rating*****It appears that you may have gotten yourself into quite a bind with your swaps and marking sent before they are really sent. You originally marked this swap sent in Jan I believe on the 21st...I didn't receive it until almost a month later...The swap I got looked like you just threw it together to get it out and Im sorry that I have to rate you down but I feel like I have no other choice... I hope you can pull yourself out of this mess, I really do...

Comment: The reason why I am rating you a three: Is because the first package you sent me was nowhere near the requirements on what you needed to send. It was maybe worth $3. Only after I had posted something about it did I receive a replacement package. While the replacement package had a ton of goodies in it, it just wasn't quite what I had expected and not very put together. I think you got in over your head with swap-bot and I hope you keep up making good on your swaps you owe.
Response: Thanks for the rating sorry it wasn't what you expected what did you expect i followed ur profile and it still wasnt what you wanted and i did put heart into that swap knew would be negative no matter what i sent

Comment: Today, 3/5/11 I finally received your package. Thank you very much! I really appreciate your effort. So I'm changing my rating to 3+Heart=5. :) ***************** Today 2/21/11, my daughter received a package from you and she is so~~~~ happy. Thank you. I do appreciate it. It means so much to me. *************************** I was really excited about this swap but you totally ruined it. You originally listed that you sent a package to me on 1/24/11. When I didn't receive anything, I sent you a message on 2/4/11. You responded that you will RESEND the package on 2/5/11 however, as of today 2/14/11 I am still waiting for the package. And guess what? You did the same thing to my daughter with another swap. (Her address is different from mine.) You marked the package sent but when my daughter waited too long for it and contacted you, you told her that you will RESEND it which was 9 days ago. My poor daughter still believes in your word and is waiting for your package everyday. You may come up with reasons for not sending packages (like you were sick), you should never lie to your partenres that you already sent packages while you didn't. And if you have any reasons that you couldn't fulfil your part of the obligation, you should always contact your partners right away. Then make different arrangement. Changing your status from "sent" to "not sent" will not do the job. Oh, well.... so, are you still planning to send me a package in the near future?? When I actually receive a package from you, I'll change your rating. Until then, all I can rate you is anything else but "1".
Response: i will be sending this package on the weekend. I wanted to make sure all my kids swaps and some other earlier swaps were caught up. I mailed out over 30 packages today and plan on mailing 40 plus more tomorrow. It is draining my checking account and i realize that is not your problem, but you WILL get yourf package but it won't be mailed out til the weekend when my paycheck goes in on friday! Again i am truely sorry and i am sorry i ruined this swap for you, that was not my intention at all. Please rerate when you receive your package or at least let me know when you receive it! Glad you finally received thanks for the 5 i really appreciate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TC on May 4, 2011:

So you failed here, the admins at MyScrapRoom aren't letting you swap there... Where are you going to go next? Why don't you just come back here and make up your swaps to all the people you flaked on?

Lexidh on May 4, 2011:

Liar. You told me so many times you would make up for your flaking, and what did I get? Nothing. A big fat nothing.

TC on Apr 11, 2011:

I guess you gave up and have moved on to other swap sites. Hope you're more reliable at My Scrap Room.

Barbi on Mar 25, 2011:

26 Ones? Yikes, you really got in over your head didn't you? I feel lucky to have received my bookmark. Yes, I received the charms attached to it, it was wrapped in bubble wrap in a #10 envelope and surprisingly the post office didn't mangle it to pieces like they usually do. So thanks for sending. I gave you a 5 because it really is a nice bookmark. If it was crappy work I definitely would've left a 3 for being a whole month late with no contact.

catnipitis on Mar 18, 2011:

I put a lot of effort into the bulging flat rate box swap I sent to you. You've claimed you never received it. I've stated (to all my swaps and in my profile) that I'm willing to resend if needed--but very little communication from you. I kept asking if you got it and you said you'd let me know. All communications had been started by me. Honestly, you need to sign up for less swaps and keep up with the ones you do sign up for just to be fair to those who get you as a swap partner!

hjshort72 on Mar 15, 2011:

I'm trying!!!!!!

Lexidh on Mar 15, 2011:

Can't you just drop the lies when you clearly haven't sent or resent what you owe people? You have no idea how much you piss people off.

merlainne on Mar 12, 2011:

Hey there, I was just checking up on your ratings and wanted to reiterate how inspired I am that you are working so diligently to fix all these messed up swaps. It would be so tempting to just give up and walk away and instead you are being responsible. It shows impressive focus, integrity and ultimately kindness. I just wanted to give you some encouragement. Take it swap-by-swap. The end is in sight.

PJ on Mar 5, 2011:

Hi Heather, Back from my trip and wanted to check in how things are going with you. Looks like you're forging ahead with trying to catch up, as 5 and 3 ratings are still rolling in, along with the 1's. So I just wanted to say that despite the mistakes you obviously made in the past, I'm inspired by your determination to fulfill your responsibilities in the long run. If I ever got that deep underwater, I'm not sure that I wouldn't just hide! So good on ya!

Offer to help still stands if you need it ...
