    Hello.

    Yeah, swaps on here never work out. They either get started and fizzle out because someone keeps the box and or forgets to send it or the person starting it never seems to get it organized well.

    i started a swap box and figured out the trick: split it into two. send two boxes, to five people each. i got one back. it WAS mostly filled with junk, but i got a phunky-ass patchwork dress a mama made and some other cool things. i think it's worth it. just MAKE EM SMALLER. five people is plenty, or either four. if you send two or three boxes, you'll stand greater chance of gettin at least one back!

    Yeah i guess it would be better if you kept it small and stayed on top of everyone who had it.

    i know sometimes these don't always workout. however i have been involved in a few that worked out. this is why i have instructions and rules for the swap. for instance you would have to put delivery tracing and confirmation on the package and let me and the next to get it the # so it could be tracted. and you must agree to only have the box for about 3-5 days. i will post all the rules later today when i have more time.
