Description:

This swap is for those larger, higher priced items on your favorites list. For this swap you will have one partner, that could be from anywhere in the world, that you will buy something from their wish list for them with a price range between $8 and $11 before shipping. It could be one thing or multiple things that equal up to that price range.

"Before joining, please remember that this is an international based swap. This means that you could be partnered with someone who is internationally based. Just like anyone else, you are responsible for paying the shipping costs for the item(s) you are having shipped to your partner REGARDLESS of where the item(s) you chose are shipping FROM. Please do not ask your partner to choose items from their country so that YOU don't have to pay as much in shipping!!! Most people join these swaps and have items on their Etsy favorites from other countries because they can't get the items in their own country! If your partner does have items in their favorites that are from their own country, even better, but please don't join an internationally based swap if you are not going to be willing to pay the shipping prices."

If you think it will help shipping costs, you may have the item shipped to you then you ship to your partner. If shipping directly to your partner please ask the seller to include a note who it's from and the swap name so your partner can rate you.

Please have a Etsy favs link on your profile and plenty of items in the price range to choose from. Preferably 10 items that are $8-11 before shipping.

No recent unexplained bad ratings. If you flake it will be publicized and may mean banning from the group.

So, one international partner, spend $8-11 before shipping.

too bad I don't have money right now, haha :> maybe there'll be a second one? ;)

@neekahbelle That's why I have a fairly long sign-up period so that people can see if they can set a little extra aside, or have time to determine if they'll have the funds available to be able to participate. It is one that would be nice to do once in a while, though not too often since the bigger price can be tough. As with any swap I host, anyone that likes the idea and wants to do it again at another date, is welcome to host one like it of their own. If they do and let me know I may join! :)

I love everything about it but the international part.. shipping is usually so highly priced, it's such a shame. I prefer to do USA/CANADA based ones. Next time!

@Jester777 I thought on that for a while also. About weather to go all out or rein it in a bit. Finally decided to include all that were interested in this round and unless someone else hosts a regional one before I do, then the next time I do one of these it will not be international. May do a thing of hop back and forth between international and local.

At current participants we have three U.S. and three from foreign countries.
