Comment: 12/20/12: Rating 3 - I want to thank you for the lovely card I received on December 17, 2012. I think it is wonderful that you supported www.pchkidsart.org by sending out their card. The card art "Stained Glass Dove" by Rosie G is very nice. However, the facts of this swap insist that I leave you a 3 rating because "I got my stuff, but it didn't meet the posted swap requirements." The posted send by date for this swap is December 1, 2012. You clicked sent for this swap on November 29, 2012. The envelope is postmarked 14 DEC 2012. I'm not accepting excuses. This swap was mailed 13 days after the swap deadline and earned a 3 rating. [I did not receive any communication about the swap being late from this swapper.]
Response: I hope you had a Merry Christmas. I am sad about the rating you chose but you followed the rules. My personal life has been in upheaval and it was hard for me to get them out in time. I hope your 2012 was better than mine. Anyways, glad you liked the card.
