NOTICE Some of you may have noticed the obvious mistake. I accidentally let four entrants in from USA. I feel a bit awful for making an error and i am sorry. To make it fairer for all nations, i have increased country entrant allowance to 4. I hope this will be the only one of my swaps that this happens to. I do apologise and hey, i am only human! (sorry). This swap requires you to pick five candy items and send them to one partner. These could be hard boiled sweets/bon bons, lollipops, jellies, sugar mice, candy jewellery etc. Each item must come sealed/wrapped and untouched. The items you send must be either made wholy or predominately out of sugar - no chocolate for this swap please. Please include a note explaining where you got the candy from (name, location of store). As a guide, here is a rough idea of how much money you should be spending on the candy for this swap: UK - £3-£5 USA - $5-$8 Euro - €​3.50 - €​6 Japan - ¥400- ¥670 Australia - A$5 - A$8 Canada - C$ - C$8 Switzerland - SFr.4.50 - SFr.7.50 China - ¥35-¥55 Denmark - Kr.30 - Kr.55 Hong Kong - HK$40 - HK$65 Hungary - Ft.320 - Ft.1,600 India - INR.220 - INR.365 Mexico - $60 - $100 Malaysia - MYR15 MYR25 Norway - Kr.30 - Kr.50 New Zealand - $6.50 - $11 Russia - RUB140 - RUB230 Sweden - Kr.39 - Kr.55 Singapore - $6.15 - $10 Thailand - B150 - B245 South Africa - R35 - R55 Bear in mind that it will cost you a lot of money to post a heavy parcel overseas. This is common sense. Postal costs will vary by country and weight so i leave that up to you. Add a website to the note if the store has one. There may be a candy you desperately need to track down! This is a small swap to allow those with limited funds to join in a fun swap! You must live in the country you sign up for, e.g i live in england and i will do my best to send English candy. If you move to a different country that you are not a native of, you must still sign up as that country, not the one you moved from. To make this swap more equal, i will only be allowing 3 people from each country to enter on a first come, first served basis. For example: 3 from uk (that obviously includes me!), 3 from USA, 3 from Canada, 3 from Australia, etc. If you join this swap and find you've been taken off of it, it means your country has the allocated number of entries already. It's nothing personal and i will always PM you to let you know if this has happened. This is 100% senders choice, but it may be courteous to check out your assigned partner's profile to see if there is anything they really dislike, i.e. liquorice, aniseed, cinnamon, etc. If you do receive an item you don't like, commit a RAK and give it to someone who does! A rating of 5 should be given if a package containing 5 separate items is received, regardless to whether you like the contents or not. Only give a heart if you really enjoyed the items in your package. I encourage you all to work through any difficulties you encounter before rating any 3's or 1's. You can PM me if you require assistance. You will need a rating of at least 4.5. Newbies are welcome with well filled out profiles. I've given this swap a time of a month for everyone to have received their goods. If you have a problem, please PM me. All questions in the comments below please and i will answer them as quickly as i can. I cannot angel this swap, so please do not flake! | |
