| So what happens if you don't get your SB box?? I am actually getting nervous for Denzel's SB since we haven't heard anything from his mom since November....I'm afraid something may have happened to them What happens if their sb doesn't get a box.....are we able to send them a ge box to replace it?? I would be willing to send a box of goodies to the sb if necessary. Not trying to alarm anyone, but just wondering. If anyone knows the answer (well I am sure admin does), I would love to know.

| Do you have tracking information? That should tell you whether or not your package was delivered. |

Poppy's Mamma ♥ Donating Member | Maybe Denzels mom is just busy with Christmas and everything, Im sure they have sent out their box and are just waiting for it to get to their buddy's house. Well I hope so anyway... I hope Denzel and his mom are okay and nothing bad has happend. I think if a buddy dosn't get their box then maybe YT sends them a box? Im not sure I think I read that somewhere, Admin said that nobody will be left out. But im sure Denzel's mom is just busy with the holidays.

| If you check the rules, you must send your package with a shipping service that provides tracking information. Your SB is required to post a thank you thread with a couple of pictures. If you know your SB got her gift, but didn't respond, you should contact the Admin. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yt-...gulations.html These are great rules IMO. I stopped participating in the gift exchange on another forum when I never got even a pm of thanks year after year. It's discouraging to put a lot of time and effort into your gifts and not have them acknowledged. |

anyways i've been PMed by admin so i think it's going to be fine and don't worry about me everyone i'm more than ok right now. i've come to terms a long long time ago that Sadie is prob. the dog that won't get something this year. i prob. won't do GE again for a long time if ever. there is not a good way to hold someone accountable for their GE box and there's nothing stopping someone from getting their gift and leaving YT forever maybe in the future we make them deposit money to admin that they get back after doing it right that way if something like this happens admin has the funds to replace the gift not sent. or maybe require a phone number that admin can "check in" on the missing person. anyways this is prob. my last GE because unfortunately bad things happen and you have no way of knowing what did happen and bad people also come on and take advantage of giving and good people. | |

| So sorry to hear about this Rachel. That must really suck! I thought I had read that she was out shopping for her SB. Didn't she also say something about having to deal with a family issue? I'm not making excuses for her, just saying what I remember seeing. I've yet to participate in a GE, but I'm willing to send Sadie a little something to brighten up her Xmas.

The gift exchange is great and fun for everyone, I dont understand why anyone would want to ruin that for the mom's and the furbabies. So hopefully there is a good reason. I hope you do take part in other GE's! I would love to have you as a SB! I dont have any money right now as I dont get paid until wednesday but I would be more then happy to buy something from a YT vendor and have it sent out to you! I think it would be a great idea if we all chipped in and got Sadie something special. There is no way we can have her being left out especially at Christmas time!

| While i have a wonderful SB , i know when it gets down to the last few things start running threw your mind of the "what if". It is heart breaking that someone would leave someone without, especially when you have put your heart into the gift you have sent. i have taken part in 3 Ges, and most of them turn out Great for those involved, however 2 of the 3 i have taken part in, someone didnt send out a gift. i dont know if a phone # included would help as part of the sign up-since they probablly wouldnt answer the phone, but possibly a refundable deposit would work. Or making it where you have to be a member for a longer period before signing up. Since its really easy to rack up 'X' amount of post on no time just to enter the ge. If there willing to be a member for say 6 months? before they can enter- then maybe they would be more honest when signing up for the GE? i know that it would make it hard to those that want to sign up right away, and hopefully it wouldnt discourage anyone. but if you like the site then you wont leave if your heart was in the right place to begin with. Sorry just my 2 cents, and dont mean to offend anyone.

| Rachel, I'm so sorry. Don't be discouraged for future GEs. I'm sure things will work out

What has ADMIN said about the box? Keep us posted and I'm sure that Sadie will not be left out. That really stinks if your SB doesn't follow through. So don't get all pouty just yet~everything will be just fine.

Hopefully she will be able to get online soon and explain. If not I still think it would be nice if we all chipped in and bought Sadie some gifts, once I get paid on wednesday I would be more then happy to help.
