My Choice Swap # 1

A lot of times we really like to know what we would get - its something fun between a surprise and not so surprising !

In this swap - a) it is the partners duty to offer 5 choices of items in the range of USD 15 (American dollars) before shipping. These items could be anything from the receivers wishlist , or suggestions from the partner , something unique and local, some interesting vintage stuff - whatever you think would work and fetch you a heart from the receiver. b) When the partner describes the 5 choices she has to offer , the receiver gets to pick one item from the choice. c) The partner then packs it off to the receiver with the options of adding extras as per their wish.

Tips for partners : - You can choose to send pictures of the items you wish to offer if the need requires or if the receiver wants to have a look before deciding. - Be as clear in your description about your offering as possible

What is allowed : - A goodie bag of small items collectively offered for choice as one item as long as it meets USD 15 value before shipping is allowed

What is not allowed : - sending something else other than what was chosen by the receiver

It is a REQUIREMENT to communicate to your partner , where you can ask them their size (incase of clothing) , or color choices, or likes and dislikes.

Gifts can be anything - handmade, vintage, store bought , several small ones, or a large one - but really really amazing and an exceptional parcel. You can decide whether you want to gift wrap each item or you want to put them all in one pack.

Some gift ideas can be : clothing / bags / purses / perfume samples / wall decor / DIY kits / books / show pieces / jewelry / high end stationary / personalized items / hair accessories / beauty products / sweets / dolls / songs or movie CDs / technology gifts etc . You can get ideas looking at your partners profiles.

The value of the items should be minimum USD 15 , but you are welcome to go overboard.

For obvious reasons, this swap is not newbie friendly. I am going to check swappers with a high percentage of hearts and stars on their profile.

This swap is so sure to bring you hearts and virtual hugs :)

Please note: All gifts must be sealed in a plastic sleeve / cover before being put in the final envelope to protect it from getting soiled. All packages must include your name and swapbot user ID on a separate paper for quick identification.
