If you sign up for an exchange,please fullfill.
I was so excited to start the monthly goodie box exchanges,they can be so much fun,alot of members love them,but then you have a few that wont pull their end of the deal. Promises are made,but seem never to get completed,feelings get hurt along with mine,as Im just trying to show a little fun.
I dont even do the exchanges my self,just sharing my time and friendship with others to make a someone smile.
People need to know that when you sign up for these exchanges-of any kind- that your word is liable,your only as good as your word,and if there is even a chance that you can not full fill,please do not signup,nothing is worse than waiting by the mailbox,for a fun package,and it never getting there.
I have 1 person from July exchange that says package has been mailed,but it was never recieved,her partner is still waiting. VERY SAD!!!
If you have signed up this month,your partners are counting on you,please pull your end of the exchange.
If people dont get their boxes this month,I will not do this again,not fair to other members and not fair to me.
I also believe that if you got your box,please leave good trader feedback for your partner,this means alot to your pals.
If you didnt get your box,its up to you to leave what ever feedback you feel you need to leave. Fair is Fair.
This might make others angry,But felt the need to share what I feel is right and wrong.

I never know what is going on in my world, so I dont sign up for these exchanges.....I dont want for someone to be disappointed because something happened and I cant fulfill my promise.

If they don't follow thru, they should be left negative feedback and reported to JKatherine. 3 confirmed complaints will get them on the bad trader's list.

no one likes to leave bad feedback no matter where it is,here,ebay,but sometimes people leave no choice,its a sad thing but hey,if you dont do the deed,then its time to come clean.

That is wrong. I understand that things can happen. I did the secret santa and when I said I would take two girls I didn't know d/h was going to lose his job. So the box wasn't as nice as I wanted it to be but I didn't think it would be fair to all the people if I didn't send something. So yes if they don't hold up their end it is wrong. Always leave feedback. Maybe if the person doesn't leave feedback the person in charge should. I would make sure they were going to leave and if they wasn't then that is when I would do it.That is if the person in charge of these swaps can.

accidents can come up,lose of a job,hospital emergency,death,lots of things,but thats why you let your partner know and the person doing the exchanges,maybe that person can do your swap for you,then everyone is happy and safe.
Vicky,your a sweetie,you chose to do the right thing in mailing that box out,Im sure you pal loved everything in that box,and knowing it came from the heart makes it that much better.

I agree, if you don't follow through on an exchange, negative feedback should be left for you and it should be reported as a bad trade.
I am not a part of your exchange luvcub -- but I am in DBD's and Beso's exchanges.
Hugs and Thanks to you for sponsoring the event -- and shame on the ones that fail to follow through.
2 days from now, tomorrow will be yesterday.

how sad, years ago I was one where my partner never followed through, I took my partners likes to heart and went shopping for just the right thing only to receive nothing in return from them.
But the exchange head had worked it out where I ended up not getting left out. I think w/ all exchanges delivery confirmation should be a must so it's not just their word of them mailing it. That really sucks to all those who don't get their end and I agree, leave negative feedback and report them to Jkat so others cannot be screwed by those slime bags

If you don't want dumb answers, don't ask dumb questions

I was in one of the secret pal exchanges a couple of years ago. I think it was either a three or six month exchange. Money got tight because we were moving so I had notified the organizer and asked if the person who was sending to me could send to the person I had instead. Definitely leave feedback for the person who isn't following through.
