Description:

This swap is to send a Secret Santa gift to 1 partner, to the value of $25/ร‚ยฃ15/17 Euro. The item should be store bought and not handmade for this one. Please read your partner's profile and remember this is a Harajuku Girls swap.

Please wrap your gift to make it Christmassy and include a card or note to your partner.

This swap is international with a posting date of November 30th to ensure it reaches your partner on time.

Most of us swap in groups to lower the risk of being flaked on. If you plan on flaking, this is not the swap for you. I don't want to have to ban people with 1's or 3's but people entering this swap are doing so on goodwill and expect to get a gift back. As this is a timely swap, it is absolutely essential you post by 30th November - at the absolute latest. If there is any possibility of you not managing the posting date, please do not sign up for this swap. Flakers and late posters will be banned from future swaps, but the karma is on you for disappointing your partner on Christmas Day.

Have fun shopping :-)

I think that @robotlove was doing something like this, because she told me about it when I made a swap similar to this...maybe you should PM her about this before too many people join? Just wanted to give you a heads-up!

Ah, no worries. I've actually decided on hosting a different kind of Christmas swap that shouldn't conflict with @secretterrabite 's swaps. =)

At least, I hope not, but we'll see.

Hey, does anyone have any resources (etailers, good stores) for Harajuku items? I only have a few, and want to get a good repitoir (sp) so I have a decent choice for my partner.

Please let me know or post :)

Thanks.

hmm,,,,that sounded kinda dumb....

I have plenty of resources for general stuff, I guess I mean more theme specific....Harajuku fashion specific (like the super long slouch socks, lolita resources, etc) items and sites...

Can anyone help with USA stores? I can only tell you UK, sorry.

Hi!

I live in Chile, which is not exactly the capital of Harajuku style. Because of this, I usually satisfy my Cute/Kawaii/Harajuku needs buying things through the Internet, most of all from Japan, but also from USA and other places.

I really want to sing up for this one, so I was wondering if I can buy something through the Internet, have it shipped directly to my partner's address (in a nice wrap, of course), and send the card/letter from here. In this way I would have plenty more choices to send to my partner a very special package (and wouldn't have to pay two times the postal fees)

Please, let me know!

@lilkye Hmm. I know jbox carries some slouch socks along with sock glue but I don't know if their price is the usual price for them (maybe ebay would be cheaper?) but if no, you can click here to get to the that page.

inconcienciazul - yes, you can do that. Just let your partner know in advance that you plan to do this, so they don't open it!

We don't have much Harajuku Style stuff in the UK, we have a couple of shops that have bright clothing accessories, but we don't have a lot of kawaii. I buy from www.artbox.co.uk for kawaii stationery. I use ebay for other items, which usually come from Hong Kong or Japan - just check the postage amounts first, as some charge lots more for the same item.

If anyone is stuck, check your partners profile, you don't have to send a Harajuku gift, just a Christmas present they would like.
