Comment: i hate doing this but i have been told by many to go ahead and rate. since she is flaking on alot. its been over a month (6-7) and nothing. although i know how hard this one was.. sorry. will gladly change if something shows , feel free to even email it... swap is still marked not sent.
Comment: Hi Chrissy,
I regret having to give you this rating. I know this was a very difficult swap. However, I have waited over a month from the send date and still never received a letter from you. if you would like to send a letter (even over email if that is easier) now, I would be willing to change the rating.
Comment: I got a package with 4 different ribbons (which were all very nice), the swap requirement was a minimum of 10. I emailed and got the reply that it was an oversight and a second package was on its way, but it never came.
Comment: Thanks for the package of buttons. I was really surprised by this package because it was a pin swap, but I received clothing buttons instead. This isn't a problem though since I sew. The "did not meet the posted swap requirements" rating is due to lateness, not the quite understandable mix-up.
Comment: UPDATE: I received the swap today 17/5/07 with a postmark of 7/7/07 on it, so it wasn't sent when she said it had been (see below). The ribbons are the kind you get on presents and unfortunately they are broken and ripped, one with brown paper stuck all over it. The ribbon, whilst not what I had expected to receive, I will be able to use it on presents. I do appreciate your efforts Chrissy, I just don't feel it is up to swap standard and the fact that it was sent out almost a month after swap finished (the 10th April).
Unfortunately even after the reply from Chrissy on 25/4/07 saying she had sent it and with extras, nothing has arrived.
I will change my rating if something does arrive. First 1 I've had to give and it's not nice.
Comment: Received a package today. Reasons for leaving as a 3 because:
1. swap date was 24th april
2. first contact was 9th may, saying computer was down (plausible), to "change rating" and that package was already sent.
3. rec'd package on 17th in Aust, saying that it was left behind in outgoing mail???and in a manner not polite to "CHANGE RATING".
4. First time EVER I checked the mail out date...11th May.
Hence making the second comment NOT TRUE, that it had already had been mailed out.
A little courtesy would've gone a long way...and I do thank you for sending.
Comment: Arrived late but it was worth the wait. Chrissy sent 3 poems instead of the required 1, all that she had written herself. I especially love the poem titled 'The Stars Are In Heaven'. Thank you so much Chrissy Γ’β’Β₯
Comment: Chrissy, I am really sorry I have to do this, but I still have not received your may day cone. First, you marked the package as sent long before the swap ended, and then emailed me a week after the swap ended to tell me you were just now sending the swap, with no excuse. It has been 2 weeks since you told me you sent the package, and I have still not gotten anything. I promise I will change my rating once I have either received the package, or you have shown me proof of mailing. I hope you understand.
Comment: I hope not to swap with her again. Received over 1 month late - I threw away the spices, they looked OLD. Also, the note she sent said that the spices were expensive so I should change the rating. Tacky.
Comment: 5/11/07 I got the swap in today and instead of this being a swap, it was more like a threat and ultimatum! I quote, "I am writing for you change the rating on Swap-bot." As if I rated her demanding that she send me something! The nerve! I didn't make her sign up for the swap in the first place! 4/30/07 still no parcel 4/25/07 Today is day 14. :( Below is some of the information that happened prior to this rating. I e-mailed her and she e-mailed me back, not sure where it goes from here.
4/20/07 I am waiting my 14 days! Life doesnt promise its going to be a good day and it's possible this person is having issues, it wasn't long ago that her ratings went south!
4/19/07 I was going to wait the 14 days from the send by date to rate this swap, however, I was informed by the host to set my rating now because it is thought that Moon Asanti aka Chrissy Trutsh is a "flaker". If this partner does send to me I will change this rating at once! Flaker or something wrong in their life, I wish no one harm! Good Luck in life! We all need it!
Comment: This swap was sent out 10 days late. I really wrestled over rating a 3 or a 5. Moon_Asanti- I tried to message you about not having received anything & you didn't respond. Any time you are going to be late, especially significantly like that, you really should message people so they don't feel they are being flaked on. I rated a 5 because I decided if there hadn't been mega- drama going on I would probably give the benefit of the doubt and assume it is an unusual situation.
Comment: I hate to leave a middle of the road rating, but there is no way the swap was met. Not even half of the swap requirements were met and it was sent past the deadline. Swap stated to send 5 items, something handmade, a candy goodie, and a card. What I got was 3 note pad sets. Sorry :(
