    Swap Angels for Incomplete Swaps

    Started over 1 year ago · Last post about 1 month ago · Displaying Post 1 - 30 of 122 in total
    ~!!!~UPDATED-February-18th-2013 ~!!!~
    Please re-read everything, I've added updates and more info :D

    Swap Angles are people who jump in and finish a swap when another partner has dropped out, had an emergency, or become unreachable.
    Angles are signing up and helping people out, out of the kindness of their hearts, please don't bring this page down by bashing on whats happened weather it was a whole swap that fell though or just one person.
    If you'd like to be partnered with an Angel, make sure you have tried to get in contact with your partner by messaging them, posting on the profiles, and posting on the Swap thread. Give them at least 2 weeks to get in touch. Your swap cannot be more than 6 months old. I'm only saying this so people can't start asking for Angels for really old swaps when we need our Angels available to help with the current ones.
    If you sent to your original partner and never received then the Angel will send a "replacement" package to you in the theme of the incomplete swap, and is stepping in for your original partner. You don't have to remake everything and send out to your Angel. Unless you and your partner decided on that.
    After your New Swap with an Angle is completed, it counts as the original swap being completed. If your original partner ends up being able to also complete their portion later, that's just a bonus.
    If you never sent out to your original partner, then you and your Angel will mail out to each other. You can decided with you Angel if you want to keep the original swaps theme and also the amount of items and the send out date.
    Then please fill out this info

    Hey everyone! Please, please, please let me know what you think of this ^_^

    I have seen Swap Angles on other sites, and I think with the recent outbreak of swaps being left in limbo that it was a good time to introduce the idea of angels.

    (how do angels get paired with those in need?)
  10. Posted over 1 year ago
    Thanks everyone for signing up!

    I'll try and keep up with the list of people who need an angel so that I can find them an angel to be paired with. I'll message the angel and see if they are available, if they are then they can go ahead and messgae their partner and get started with the incomplete portion of the swap.

    If someone pops up that you can help though feel free to message them and myself, so we aren't tripping over each other ^_^

    If Bindiibabe doesn't answer my message I might need the help of an Angel for the secret santa X-mas-card swap. Else 2 people will only recieve one card instead of 2.

    Date you mailed out: September? Same time as recipe swap.
    Size of Swap: Small, I didn't receive bracelets from 2 people
  14. Posted over 1 year ago
    @Nikki, Let us know if you do want to get hooked up with an Angel :)
    We could probably get 1 Angel to send you the 2 missing bracelets from your swap :) Just to cut down on shipping for everyone.

    @Dragonfly, I'll message you right now! lol I know that the cards were supposed to be kinda a secret, so I'll get in touch with you and we can get some cards out asap! No Problemo ^_^
