Description:

Yes, they're back! And thanks Thefinderofthings for the idea :) For this swap, we will be cramming flat rate boxes full of anything and everything. You want to go for miscellaneous, random, varied items.. and of course, you probably want to make it as heavy as possible.. just because you can :)

Be aware that this isn't necessarily about getting stuff you need, so if you get stuff you can't use send it to your local thrift store or re-swap it. or freecycle it. or whatever. But please, please do NOT send trash or anything downright disgusting. Your partner can rate a 3 for that. But be aware-- you will probably receive used items in this swap. That's kind of the point. Just use good judgement in sending and rating, eh? Also-- for possible hearts-- I encourage you to have a look at your partner's profile and send things they might enjoy...

And in keeping with the original this is US ONLY. NOT INTERNATIONAL

If you have any questions, PM ME.

As far as who can join-if you are new you must have at least participated in 3 real swaps. and you must have at least a 4.2 to JOIN. i'm leaving this pretty open since we're not exactly swapping diamonds here. if you don't meet these requirements and still want to join, PM. I may make exceptions on a case-by-case basis.

What size Flat Rate box and what how much is the flat rate?

lov2bcreative 12/ 6/2008 #

and where do you get a flat rate box? at the PO? Thanks

cat 12/ 6/2008 #

Yes.. at the PO :) smaller ones, larger ones for possible hearts

From the USPS web site:

Priority Mail Flat Rate Envelope $4.80
12.5" x 9.5"

Priority Mail Flat Rate Boxes $9.80
11" x 8.5" x 5.5" (shoe box size) 11-7/7" x 3-3/8" x 13-5/8" (shirt box size)

Large Priority Mail Flat Rate Box $12.95 12" x 12" x 5-1/2"

I am assuming this swap is for either of the flat rate boxes (shoe box or shirt box), but not the envelope or the large box. Is that correct? That makes it a $9.80 US Postage swap.

That is correct-- as the title implies, this is a swap for flat rate BOXES and so yes it will cost $9.80 for postage. But it will be ever-so-worth it :D
