Yes, very expensive swap, especially for a newbie host with a "3" rating who can't angel. Was in a previous swap with this host and she allowed unrated swappers with NO INFO on their profile into the swap despite the swap description stating that "only newbies with well filled out profiles" would be allowed. May be an awesome swap, but go into it with all the information available.

@gooddog56 thank you for the advice I have increased the dating slightly and am going to reduce the amount a wee bit too.

@Babsmomof5 I already sent you a message regarding the swapper being a friend who has issues adding to his profile. And my three, which was for my first swap, was unfairly rated by a bully swapper who was demanding more resends after I met the swap requirements but failed to meet her own xx

Rating not dating.

And I said may not be able to Angel, not that I would not Angel. It depends on what happens xx

Wish this was USA only. I can't afford mailing packages over seas. Last time I sent a small item it cost me over $12.00. And it was just a post it swap.

@pattiairel sadly it's because I'm from the UK. Feel free to host a USA only one of you wish :) xx

Plus, what's the point of being an international community, if all swaps are hosted for US only? There's so many US only swap (which is really unfair for us Europeans) and still there are people posting under every single international swap "wish this was US only" - we pay high postage costs, too, to send to America and you don't hear us complaining and asking for more Europe only swaps.

Lol, I sent @serenbunny a nice store bought birthday card with lots of profile based extras for another swap she hosted and she rated me a 5 without a heart (which was totally fine,) but stated she didn't give a heart for the swap because I didn't put her name on the card. Umm, who puts a persons name inside a store bought birthday card? Lol, the 5 was perfectly fine, but the comment about the heart made me laugh ;-)

@Fever are you in some of the Eurooe only swap groups? I have several Eurooean friends who swap lots within some of those ;-)

@Babsmomof5 Thanks for the comment, I actually am and participate in swaps in those groups. I just wanted to put my comment out there because that kind of behaviour starts gnawing on my patience strings. :D

@Babsmomof5 Must be a Europe thing to include the name of the person who's birthday it is on their birthday card xx
