Minimum spending limit is £2.50 per package (before postage) sending stuff you have made / found / recycled, or already have in your possession but don't want- is encouraged. Make it something you would like to receive yourself, try to include a good mix of items.. the aim is to give people new ideas so its senders choice, but please check profiles for likes and zine interests for those hearts and ALSO please check their dislikes so you don't offend. So just to repeat- sending 2 packages of zine supplies, one to each of your two partners. (Meaning you should also receive 2 packages back). Newbies are welcome (with well filled out profiles), minimum rating of 4.8, no-one with unexplained 1's or 3's, and you have to have been on swap-bot at least 1 week before swap starts.
