self-sealed (peel and seal) envelope so should be OK (I hope, haven't had problems with this sort before but I suppose there's always a first time.)

shellsajerseygirl 04/21/2011 #

They have worked great for me in the past :)

Hello I read the list of swapper for this swap.I see that 3 swappers have not marked sent.

I sent each of the 3 swappers emails & pm. I have yet to hear back from them.

I also read each of their profiles.To see if something was posted. I read a issue or two.Let's give it the two weeks from the send date.And if you do not receive or have not been contacted. Please rate per swap bot rules.You can always re rate.

I would like to continue coordinating swaps. Swaps that are fair all the way around.No one wants to get flaked. I want to keep track of the unfair swappers so I can ban them from joining the swaps I coordinate.This why I have posted this comment on this page. In advance I would like to Thank all for your help.Yours in Swapping,M

shellsajerseygirl 06/ 4/2011 #

Update....I wanted to address the issue of the swappers that have not received their swap.It has been 2 weeks frm. Dead line sent day.Please referr to Swap bot guildlines.Please use that to guide you to do what is right.You could always re rate your partner.As coordinator ,Since I am new to this.I will try to do my best to what I can. Thank You M.

shellsajerseygirl 06/ 4/2011 #

WITH THAT SAID I will angel if need be.If people continue to flake ,first I will have no choice but to list them on my profile as flakers.I will do this to those who flake & never othered to inform me or their partner.If only takes a few clicks to make communacation on here.Life sometimes happen.Things come up.Understood,but please let it be known it is not right to just drop off the planlet with out a word.Cause I am sure your swaps received are finding you.Have a great weekend

MystyxMya 06/10/2011 #

Shall rate by end of next week - judging by some of my Postcrossing stats, post from my partner's state/region can take up to a month or so.

shellsajerseygirl 06/16/2011 #

I was concerned about a few swappers here who dropped out of sight.They have not marked sent. I took a peek at their profiles. They have not been logged on here in sometime. Messages were sent by myself & their partners.No response & No swaps received to date. Time to post and travel is always considered. Just does not seem the case here :( I am concerned they are true flakers. I have offered to angel to the swappers who got burned.And will do that. ...mystyxmya... I know what you mean about Postcrossing. It seems like a year and a day to see movement,lol...

I have held off Posting the flakes names. Until I contacted each concerned party.. Now that I have . The Flakers names will now be listed among the flakers, hall of fame. This is the only way to keep swaps on here fair to all swappers. Have a great day :)

shellsajerseygirl 06/16/2011 #
