Good quality beads swap

watching I just sold a lot of my beads, but I do have some more beads that I would like to swap. I am a newbie, so not sure if I could even join. :o

OH THANK YOU for this swap!! I am SOOOO tired of getting... crap after I sent out awesome beads that I had a hard time parting with! Let me know if you ever want to private swap beads!

I make jewelry for a living and I have awesome stones and beads. I would like to join but am a newbie..PLEASE?

Sorry, no exceptions. You have to get more ratings on serious swaps (not electronic and postcard ones) to prove yourself. Flakers seems to be attracted to swaps like this more often then to most other swaps and I am in this case trying to start a type of bead swap where people will not end up disappointed.

FYI i decided today to extend date items must by by one more week as i am already not 100% about 2 people if they will be allowed to participate (so it will take probably day or two after signup deadline to check profiles and ratings and then assign partners) but lets wait for signup deadline if they will meet the requirements or not.

I'll fill a spot if you like! (I'm not here to spam, so check my profile and please tell me if I can get in on this.) Oh, I make beads and canes since 1992, and I've got TUNNS to trade...metals, lots of my own beads, etc. Cheers!

Oh, okay! I read the fine print about needing at least SOME rating here(!) so, I'll see you around, but if you want some reeeeeeaaally kewl beads, let me in!! (Okay, THIS is spam. lol)

Sorry, no exceptions. Who will not meet requirements after signup deadline will be removed (honestly looking newbies are unfortunatelly in some cases quite inventive flakers who have been recently banned and trying to get in and flake again) .

@Claymeister you really need more of a profile here - 2 lines aren't gonna cut it for a lot of quality swaps. just a suggestion...

good for you, stick to your guns..also I do wish swappers would give a rating, not all of them do and it's a worry in case the parcel might have been lost, but if they can be bothered to sign up for the swap then they should fulfill all the requirements.

I think its good that you have these standards for this kind of swap. I have a lot of beads because I make different kind of necklaces. I am a newbie, but I am building up my ratings by doing different swaps. I hope that you will have another bead swap in the near future so I can share my beads with someone else. I know their good quality, so I understand you not wanting someone to be disappointed if they sent their good beads out for nothing in return! :D

Vera, When I initially joined swap-bot, you were the first swap I received. You were also the best swap, by far, of all the swaps I have received since then (you sent me beautiful, beautiful beads and buttons). I've been thinking about quitting but this swap you're doing is just too irresistible. I'm going to give it one more try. Thanks for hosting.

Are the beads like the ones can fit pandora?

I am not sure i understand your question ... you can also send beads "like the ones that fit pandora" but you dont have to, there is sooo many different kinds of beads you can choose from so just read your partners profile and send something that will meet requirements and be something nice that will make your partner happy (so dont send trash but something nice and inspiring).

FYI i edited today only the formatting of requirements (to make them more visible so you will not overlook something important), content is still the same ;-)

Lets start swapping :-)

Sent my items on Thursday, just forgot to check sent
