~* Valentine Swap *~ Happy 10th Anniversary Arena

[DazzleKitty]

I have four packages to ship today. I'm scared about the amount I am going to spend. I have one swapbox that's due international at the end of March. I know that is gonna cost an arm and leg.

Ya shipping has gone up for sure!!!!! Its kind of sad

Yeah it has! It cost me 15 to send the package for this swap Dx. It's just crazy.


My partner should be getting her box today ....can't wait to see how she likes it!!

$15 is not so bad. I spent $30 on shipping.  Swedish post is ridicolously high, and it's the only alternative we got to send international.

I got mine shipped today! Should be there in 2-3 days, hopefully more on the sooner side. Mine cost $8 something to ship.

Will we be posting the brags here on this thread or will a separate thread be created in the brag forum?

It was $24 to ship the package. Ouch lol
Good think I only do one swap at a time.
What kills me is that I borrowed money to ship it and I lost the money on my way to the P.O

Btw I got my box.. I will open it on Thursday.

A separate brag thread in the Brag Arena Looks like teacher is the first to get her box but whomever gets to brag first starts the thread!

Ooo! The mail lady tried to deliver a package today but I wasn't at home. (I was at work!!) Hubby is going to pick it up from the post office tomorrow. I'm saving all my presents to open on my birthday (Thursday).

It cost over $8.00 to ship mine and the last time I shipped a box that weighed that it was under $6.00. I know its only a few dollars, but it does all add up over time.

[DazzleKitty]

I forgot to include one of my partner's extras. Doggone it. :/

What are you supposed to do if you forget something? I'm still somewhat new to swaps so I just wasn't sure what you would do in that case.

Mail came, no box today.

I'm hoping it comes tomorrow because I have to be at the hospital for 13 hours on Thursday xD

I left out not 1, but 2 items from my box. I think it still valued over $10, but I might send along the items that accidentally got overlooked... My only reservation with sending an additional package is the cost of shipping...

I'll duke it out once my partner sees what is in the box and then if they feel ripped I'll mail out the remaining packages.

That being said I also got my box yesterday!
