Please no unexplained or recent 1's. Cards should be store bought but if you print them then please make sure they look nice and are on sturdy card.

Cards should be pretty, interesting or decorated but please no blank index cards.

Please secure your envelope with sellotape as a courtesy for your swap partner and make sure you have paid sufficient postage.

Only rated swappers allowed and a minimum of 4.9 rating. I reserve the right to ban where I see fit for the safety of the other swappers but please feel free to contact me should you have any questions.

I hope I have covered everything but if you have any questions or concerns then please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to help.

I think 4 people is alittle much. Especially if you wind up getting 4 international partners and then you are paying through the nose for 8 recipe cards? May I suggest that we lower the swap partners to 2 and increase the number of cards you are sending to 4 or 6?

I am from Canada too, but each swap will cost just under $2 for us to mail internationally, and only a little over a $1 to the U.S.

If you increase the number of recipe cards and send to 2 partners, you could end up spending the same or even more if the weight goes over 50g. So I really son't see the advantage of one way over the other.

Perhaps you should host your own swap so you can set your own requirements. (";)

I did want to do a big swap because I am looking for a variety so I put that in the name. I always send international to all my swaps because I live in South Africa so I have no choice.

You are more than welcome to host your own if you like and if you make it international then I would love to join.I wish you all the best in whatever you decide to do.

I did however make the requirements pretty strict so that if you do have to pay more than you expected then at least there is a little more safety in the swap and a less of a chance of flakage and you get 8 cards in return.

Thank you @TerryF for clearing that up, I have no idea about weight and postage in America.
