I quit Swap-Bot which is expensive to send packages to overseas & sometimes people are difficult to deal with. First, I was flaked (cheated) by Auntie-M a notorious swap-cheater. Secondly, someone rated me 1 without even informing me that she didn't get my postcard. It's surprisingly stupid because I had message her to inform her I sent her a postcard and that it will take some time to reach her from Malaysia. She replied me with a "have u mistaken me as one of your assigned swap partners?" and I had to apologized =_=
NOW I login back to my swap-bot account, and there's a 1 rating from her out of nowhere! BLARDY HELL?! even if it's a mix-up/error/misunderstanding it's just a darn postcard and she didn't even have the courtesy to inform me anything! That just shows how insensitive and selfish some people can be to go RATE u 1 thinking you're stupid.
GOODBYE SWAP-BOT! I RATHER SPEND MY MONEY & EFFORT IN RUMMAGING THROUGH WAREHOUSESALES!
I've never heard about swap-bot until i started reading your blog in April.
ReplyDeleteYeah I agree with you, international shipping just aint worth it! As a noob in MUA, it kinda pissed me off when some "seniors" act snobbish. But not all, of course. Some are really nice. But I guess I'm done with it. V_V I think it's so much better (and safer) to swap stuff with ppl I've known, rather than with some random foreigners.
