One of the best parts of blogging is all the trading that happens as a result of being part of this community. Our good friend Jim over at GCRL brought up ugly side of trading in this post yesterday. I'm glad he brought it up.
I'd like to think that people not sending their end of a trade is more often than not, an oversight on their part.
That may not always be the case, but it begs the question...are there people to whom I owe cards? As much as I trade and as disorganized as I am, it's highly likely that I owe cards to someone. There are a few bloggers that I send cards back and forth with, but those aren't really established trades, just a fun give and receive that is born out of respect and established trust.
That said, if I owe any of you cards for any cards you've already sent me, PLEASE let me know. It could have been last week, last month or last year. You won't hurt my feelings.
Lol... I was thinking of writing up a similar post after reading GCRL's post. Happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteFor whatever reason, this year has been much worse for me in terms of number of "dead beat" traders as well. On the other hand, I've also met and worked with some of the most generous people this year so I suppose it evens out in the end. That said, if I owe anyone let me know!

ReplyDeleteI believe I have completed all of my trades so far, but I do owe several people some e-mail replies and I know that I have missed posting at least two trade packages on my blog.
ReplyDeleteFor me it seems like trades come in bursts, so I hope I've never shorted someone.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I've forgotten someone, but nobody ever says anything.
