Shop the Swap Winter Market-Discussion Thread!

[sheepBlue]

Any chance there's any interest in a few Star Trek TM style patches? Just the patches. I made a couple but have yet to do anything with them.

And UTM - I'd love to join the swap but I'm way to swamped this year with other obligations. I always stalk the convo and gallery though

Yay!  Good to know that you're joining us A2K and that Avesthel is thinking about it!  I hope more of you will join in the fun, but I totally understand that things get crazy busy at Christmastime. For me the craziness is what the holidays are about.  Anyhow Lana's schedule keeps me hoping year round.

Yay!  I'm glad you're joining us Sansa and Missing Willow!

Welcome DesignVigilante!  I just saw your shop!  Great stuff!!

Thanks UTM! I JUST got around to checking this thread (I've had quite a hectic week!).

This is my first ever STS and I just wanted to know what everyone thought of my prices. I tried to come up with what I thought were reasonable prices but I haven't sold anything yet! Any advice for a newbie?

[A2K]

Don't worry, DV!  You'll sell something.  Your items are great.  Try adding some supplies, smaller items and maybe add a bargain or two!

Your stuff is REALLY cute and reasonably priced, it just all depends on different things, sometimes you have to make sale items, sometimes other people may want your stuff but they have to wait till someone buys from their shop to do any spending. So, it's not that you are doing anything wrong, sometimes you just have to wait or tweak a thing or two! Plus this is a long one, there will be plenty of time for people to buy from ya!

I'm sorry I've been sort of absent this week. I have been reading-honest, but not really much more than that. I promise to do better next week.

I've seen a fox scarf before, but the rest are new to me.  Those are cute!     I think the raccoon is my favorite one.    Thanks for the link!

Okay, who can I bribe you into making me a snake scarf for points?

Organizer Note

Just a reminder to everyone to please put the total amount of your claim in your pm, cause sometimes I can't tell when you are claiming multiples (lots of items in the shops and I don't know all the prices)   I've been trying to update the points every couple of days, you will find the points totals on the 6th (I think) post of the shop thread with the time and date that they were last updated.  Please let me know if there is anything weird going on!

Its a good idea to make sure your outgoing pm's are saved so you can check and make sure they have gone to everyone they are supposed to.  To do this, go into "MY PROFILE"  then click "Personal Message Options" in the "modify profile" menu on the left then check the box beside Save a copy of each Personal Message in my outbox by default.  Save and then all your outgoing messages will be saved to your outbox

We hope to see everyone's shops open by the close date for signups on Oct 16.  I think thats it for now, its great to see so much claiming going on....we're already at over twice what the claims in the last round were in only 3 weeks!
