Shark Week on the Discovery Channel starts today (July 20), so let´s swap some flat shark-related items. You´ll have 2 partners and send each one at least 2 flat shark-related items. Some examples of flat item are postcards, handmade envelopes, greeting cards, bookmarks, stamps, stickers, playing cards, etc.

Turn around time is short so that we can be sure to get these sent during actual Shark Week.

The items swapped are sender´s choice, but be sure to send nice things that you would be happy to receive. Also plan on being a gracious, fairly-rating recipient, and to re-gift any items you are sent that you do not particularly care for or cannot use.

Rate your partners as soon as you can after receiving your mail, using the description of this swap as your criteria. If there is a problem with what you receive, contact that partner privately to attempt to resolve the issue before you rate less than a 5. Be sure to keep me, as host, apprised of the situation.

Feel free to decorate the envelopes you mail, if you wish; however, this is not at all required. As long as what you receive follows the swap rules, your ratings should not depend upon presentation.

Partners will be assigned on July 23rd and swaps should be mailed soon after that, by July 26th. A minimum rating average of 4.98 is required to participate, and you should have at five completed and rated (as 5s) type-2 swaps under your belt, and no recent 1s or 3s. (If your rating is slightly below that and you still want to participate, pm me and we can talk.) I do check profiles, and I reserve the right to ban anyone for any reason. I will angel, if necessary, but please don´t make that necessary.

Questions or comments? PM me or leave a comment below, as I do occasionally check comments on my swaps.
