Clarification: the category is listed as 'ATC' but is a 'type 3--package'...is this an ATC swap or a swap of various items sent in a box? Thanx!

Went shopping today for some items but I can't wait to find out who I'm sending to and pick things specially for them :) I'm pretty excited for this swap! My first swap since being back after a hiatus and I keep checking every few minutes to see if partners have been assigned! Haha.

When are the partners going to be assigned? Today is the 30th and packages must be mailed tomorrow. We need time to view/study the profile of our swap partner to send items of their liking. (And time to shop!)

I looked at her profile earlier and noticed she had this problem on another swap she hosted and ended up extending the deadline to send :/ I've stopped holding my breath.

Hi guys,

My internet has been down. We moved out of the city. I truly apoligize about the delay. Partners have now been chosen.

I am happy to report that within 24 hours I received my swap partner, studied her profile, purchased and collected my items, and got the package mailed off today (8-31-11) during my lunch hour (I work !). I had alot of fun with the swap - maybe the rushing made it all the more exciting! I hope everyone else can get theirs done in a reasonable time period - please don't give up - not fair to those who mailed off their packages already - do your best.

My package was received in a timely manner - nice Lavendar spa day is in store for me in the near future! Thanks swap partner!

What do you do when your swap partner has not rated you - or acknowledge your 3 different emails asking her if she received your package or not that you mailed to her? This is my first experience of a swap part neglecting to rate me. I took great effort to shop for special items to send in her special package! Our packages were to have been mailed by Aug 31st, here it is the 21st of Sept. and I've heard nothing from her on the swap, muchless has she replied to my inquring emails I have sent to her. I was so excited about this swap and the package I put together for her and her children. Three weeks later I still don't know if she received it or not....or if she did and possibly does not realize she should rate those who send to her. Bummer.
