That stinks that you are still on the bench and everyone else that is with you on the bench. If you sign up we all need to follow the rules that are laid out. I wonder if those that are late are always late. I have only been involved for a few months, and and thinking about not joining again due to the on going problems of packages being delivered on time.

I know at times life gets in the way, but you still have a responsibility to at least let the hostess of the swap know what is going on.

Cindy I hope you won't let a few bad apples keep you from playing along. The majority of the packages are really shipped on time. I have received packages that arrived a little late (either after touring the country or being shipped late), and I have had a partner disappear and received an angel package but mostly it works out fine.

Good for you. We need to keep the ones that play fair. It's really not hard to follow a few simple rules. I just don't understand it.To me it's just as up setting not to know when my partner recieved their swap as it is to not get a swap myself.Maybe more. I gotta say this is a very fun swap. Thanks to Miss Lori and all the ones that play fair. Everyone have a good week. Mary

Couldn't agree more. As you know I can't track my parcels, but so far everything I've sent has arrived safely apart from the February partner. She disappeared not only from the swap, but from the board too! I emailed her but never got a reply....... A mystery indeed.
