    I'm really sorry for putting that Joss. I was getting confused as I have been messaged by a couple of others who had been flaked on by the person who flaked on me so had flaking on the brain. Mary did say in her original message to me that your parcel to her had got lost in the post.

    As both myself and Mary were flaked on in this swap we are angeling for each other.

    Thats okay - I can send you my work address if that would be easier. The only reason I didn't give it out when we were all signing up is because they were making cuts at my work in October but those have been put back till January so I still have a job. You may already have it as its were you sent my geeky swap. I don't always get packages that don't fit through the letter box as the postman won't deliver them. They just leave a card saying they tried to deliver it and its at the depot for me to collect. I usually get the card and collect the package but a few years back we had a few that got returned to sender as the postman didn't leave a card so I didn't know there was a package to collect. I haven't had any issues for years though so I'm hoping that wasn't the problem :/

    I'm glad we have a swap angel thread back as it used to be the one I checked to find out if swappers were reliable or not. There used to be a flaker thread too but it got taken down after things turned nasty.

    While I think this thread is essentially a good idea as people should have some means of checking if a swapper has been reliable or not I think we need to be careful not to come across as attacking someone personally. I know noone has done that yet but we had a thread like this a few years back and is was removed because things turned nasty. A swapper was named as flaking because the recipient didn't like what she'd sent and lots of nasty messages turned up on the thread between both parties and the thread was removed.

    Swap Title: Goth/Lolita
    Flaker: Scharminkeltje
    Send out date for swap: 14th September 2013
    I've messaged her twice - first time 21 days ago and second 8 days ago and I've not heard anything from her.
    I feel a little mean writing her off as a flaker, but she doesn't leave me much choice. I would be fine if she had told me she was late sending out or that she'd been ill or some other emergency but its the lack of communication that's hard. Especially as she was the one organising the swap :/

    I'll be honest Vicky I'm beginning to think that I've been flaked on. I've sent two messages now and heard nothing. She might have a really good reason but it's still really disappointing as it was the person running the swap that was sending to me and she doesn't seem to have been active on here for a while now.

    I've still not received anything and its over 6 weeks since the post out date :/ I've messaged the person sending to me about 2 weeks ago but not heard anything back. She's sending from Poland so not sure how long post takes to get to the UK from Poland but it would be nice to hear something so I know if/when it was posted.

    @Mary I don't understand what's going on - I've swapped with you a couple of times in the past so I know it's not you. Someone in the postal services is clearly having a great time with all our missing swaps :/
