Description:

Next year I'm going to host a swap a month with this same theme. I love love love thrift stores and finding goodies there.

For this swap we will find goodies for a partner around roughly $6 total before shipping. This is an international swap.

I want these swaps to be successful so the rules are --

Even used, items should be clean.

You must have 5 rated Type 3 swaps.

A perfect rating is required, due to cost of shipping and time and effort required. I'll be checking each and every profile carefully.

You MUST list below a few of your favorite items to search for in a thrift store, and one or two things you have no use for. Include your tshirt size if you'd like but jeans are sort of heavyish to ship. If you don't list this part below, I will remove you. I don't want anyone trying to guess what you'd like or having to go to your profile, list it here.

I'm a size 30 waist, size M and 7 US shoe :) I love vintage clothing especially bell bottom jeans! Anything funky and colourful, I'm a huge scarf addict, I love knitted mittens. If it's a brand name, my favourites are H&M, Forever21 and Free People. Love paper products (postcards, ephemera for my junk journal, cards, envelopes, rubber stamps etc). Shot glasses, kitschy touristy items from where you live (or afar!). A cool men's t-shirt in a size medium for my better half (he likes vintage as well as brands like Volcom and DC). I love reading so a used book would be great too (I will add favourites to my profile so you can get an idea as to what I like). If I had to define my style, it would be bohemian/hippie :)

Things I have no use for? Children's items, VHS, anything damaged or unusable... My list of dislikes is very short :)

Please note that this is not theThrift Store Find group on swap-bot as this is internationally and the group one is USA only. Good idea to make it internationally though.

I like finding all kinds of stuff at thrift shops like notecards, stationery items and the size t shirts I get are men's XL

I like pretty letter writing sets, note cards, postcards, books (I have a Book Depository wishlist to give you ideas), items for the bath or shower, women's magazines (recipe and general interest in English).

I have no use for clothes or craft items.

I always search for vintage / vintage inspired buttons, cabochons & charms - I would be over the moon if I received any of these :-) vintage ceramic glazed woodland creatures, interesting small ceramic glazed dish/bowl (like the size of a big orange) cartoonish rubber stamps like clouds, rainbows etc..., nice coin purse, cute stationary sets, vintage illustrated children's books, any type of vintage paper goods, cute vintage t-shirt/shirt/tank top - I like small patterns (size small)

No use for: any other type of clothing besides above mentioned, DVD/CD/VHS, holiday themed stuff, random items I don't need :-)

thanks!

I like: something I can use for ATCs, letter sets, non-touristy postcards, illustrated books (for crafting material), children clothes for boys in EU size 74 and 92 (I like those with green or brown as color, I'm not a fan of boyish boy things such as cars or super heroes), XS sized cardigans (black, grey, white, brown), or something you can find from my profile.

I have no use for: nail polish/nail deco, other clothes than those mentioned above, DVD/CD/VHS, holiday themed stuff, earrings, tableware, touristy things (souvenirs, postcards)
