My swap gift is ready and I am shipping it today. Client work got in the way of getting it out. I will courier it if you will send me your phone number Jess.

I've noticed a lot of you haven't told me updates on your gifts, I've sent you PM's please answer those asap, as the deadline for shipping has passed, and it would be great if everyone can get caught up asap.
Also please let me know when you have recieved your gift, so I know that it got there. Please keep me informed.

Jess, I sent it off today. I couldn't courier it - as the cost was $50 and that was for 5 day guarantee. I sent it Express Post $15.00 for a 5 to 10 day shipping time, but it doesn't have a tracking number, that would have cost and extra $10 to ship. It looks like we need a three week window if mailing a package from Canada to the US if we want to get the least cost postage. I can ship to the UK for less money and faster. I don't know why. So, it will likely be next week. Please let me know when you get it. It is a bit bulky, hence the extra cost for shipping. Sage

Just want to let you know Jsebold that I've sent two packages to Secret Scoobie, one has arrived and the other one should be with her this week or early next week.
So I'm done, and hope that the second gift will arrive okay.

Thank you I'll let you know when it arrives. I didn't have a chance to write a note and include it in the package. So, when you get it, you will see that the handmade gift has some empty spots - they are for you to add to. I hope you like it/them. I've included two other items - to sweeten the pot - in case you don't like the handmade item. If you don't then please let me know and I will make it up to you. Sage

Sorry for no updates I have had some trouble with my laptop that I had to go get fixed ASAP! Anyway, I shipped most of my gifts out on the 27th. I tried to wait to see if the other part would come so I could ship it all together but it didn't...so you will still be getting that when it arrives Tiffany. And I got my gifts which were amazing!!!! Thank you thank you thank you! I got an episode of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 which I hadn't ever seen (and it explained how they switched from Joel to Mike) and 2 recent Angel comics, and a recent Buffy season 8 comic that I didn't have. The best part though was a beautiful hardback edition of Spike After the Fall!! The cover art is amazing and I love it! Thanks again and I hope you like yours! And Sorry again Jsebold87 that I couldn't get online and update ya'll for a couple days!

This looks like it would have been fun, wish I had been around while it was going!
Will there be another big swap like this coming up anytime soon?

Update on your gift Tiffany.... so thankfully I went to the post office to get stamps today, and apparently I didn't sign something and your package was just chillin' there SINCE THE 27th without being shipped. They said they left a notice in my mailbox to come sign for it but I didn't ever see one. So now it has DEFINATELY been shipped this time, and I got two day shipping and I am assured that it will be on your doorstep NO LATER than 2pm on Thursday. Sorry about that! And please let me know if it doesn't make it there then! Gah I feel like a total loser. I've never had any trouble shipping a package before, but I've been having such a run of bad luck lately...I guess when it rains it pours.

I received notice in my mail box yesterday that my package is at the Post office. I will be picking it up in the morning, because the post office closes before I get off today.

As soon as this is wrapped up another swap will start, with a holiday theme. I'm glad you got them sage They're actually both from the episode Bargaining. The one in the whitish/pink dress is Buffybot from the scene where she goes to school with Dawn, and the other is Buffy after she's crawled out of her grave.

Lucky you Sage! They are the cutest! I want to try doing minis, but I don't know if I could do something so small...it seems like that would be harder....but they are soooo flipping cute! Does anybody have a pic to post of the lollipop earrings?
