So all the partners have been decided? I was just wondering since I kinda signed my friend up last minute, was that missed?

Actually, it was. So why don't you take DaNcaKe in? That OK with you?
 
Paired with Finalnd.

Shit, my bad. Probably messed up during the tally. Let's wait a bit for somebody to show up and if nobody does or no one wants to double with you I will take care of it.

Sorry!
 
Right, I have my matchup. As I'm from the UK, do I buy candy to the value of $20 converted from £ or do I buy £20 of stuff?


EDIT: I'm as excited to give candy as I am to receive it, it's like Christmas! I hope my partner likes their swag.

I'd PM your partner and agree on an amount between the two of you, so the swap is not lopsided.

Now we're talking.

And remember: there is one open spot, fellas. Somebody volunteer!
Click to expand...
Is the spot from the US or overseas?
 
Have previous swaps incurred any heavy custom fees?

I'd hate to make my match-up have to fork over any extra cash when I ship the candy over from the UK. :(

Still, if it can't be helped then so be it, but if there is any weight restrictions feel free to let me know and I'll try my best to keep within it.
 
Oh, what the hell... unless Dai wants the slot, can I get in on the sweetie goodness?

Country: England.
Preferred partner: Don't mind.
Likes: VERY sour sweets, hot/spicy things, cinnamon, liquorice (especially the strong, hard, black stuff), everything!
Dislikes: Nothing, really. Except the gross insects in the OP. :'(
Allergies: None.
 
Oh what the hell, i'm posting anyway:


Your country of residence: Mexico
Which country you would like to swap candy with: Any, well, except Mexico obviously
Which candy you like: ANYTHING, chawklit, taffy, drinks, except ....
Which candy you dislike: Spicy or condimented stuff, also those too ethnic things like chocolate covered roaches
Which candy kills you on the inside, be it allergies or some sort of phobia: So far NONE, except the above mentioned bugs

Not that I know of, but you can always declare a lower value if needed.

Since it was a US swapper and we needed a Euro one, you two can do it together. It's GK86. Send him a PM and exchange details.



And that's it. We only have Dai101 hanging and after that, sign ups are closed for realsies! I will update the OP and all.
 
Okay, doing some mental math I think I can fit all of the candy I'm sending in a 8-5/8" x 5-3/8" x 1-5/8" box if I really really use every inch, since a lot of what I'm sending is chocolate bars. Which is good for me, since it cuts shipping from $45 to $15. Hell, if I need to I'll send two separate packages, its still cheaper.

EDIT: No, there's no way after looking at it again, wayyy too much stuff, looks like I'm going to have to sent two boxes.

Are you shipping USPS? that's pretty cheap compared to other prices I've seen.

I'd be happy to receive some Mexican candy if Dai101 is up for some UK treats.

Done then! PM him and confirm me if you two are properly matched, then I'll proceed to close this time for good!
 
Have exchanged pms with my partner, am starting the shopping tomorrow. Have also sent a PM to the partner of my friend.

A few weeks from now I'm sure my friend and I will be trading candy with each other

I am very happy with who I was matched up with, can't wait to see what kind of crazies Austria has to offer.
I couldn't resist and I started buying stuff today. Exciting stuff.
