I'm confused by this. First, what is B/S/T? Also, what am I supposed to post here & where/what is the link to my trade? I've been trying to leave feedback for somebody but I cannot figure out what to put where it says "Enter the classified URL of the item you traded."

Hey guys, I just wanted to give a caution message.  I made a trade last week with Seifertam.  Her package arrived on Tuesday (according to my delivery confirmation number) and she has not sent a package to me so far.  I haven't heard from her since Monday.  I don't know if she just forgot about it or what, but I sent her the Dermologica Microfoliant and some JR Watkins cuticle salve.  She is currently not responding to my messages.  If I do hear from her or get a package from her I will repost and let everyone know what happened.  Just a heads up.

I also traded with seifertam. We communicated on the 13th that we wouldnt send out till the following week. Sent her package on the 18th. Have not heard from her since 13th. Will also update if she communicates.

 

[JadedBeauty]

Thanks, I last heard from her on the 15th, she said she was going to the post office that day. Hopefully both of our packages get mailed out this coming week and she just got busy this week.

 Fingers crossed that this is a false alarm. I have heard of SWAPLIFTERS at other sites but not here ;( .  JB and G keep us posted.

Hi all,

In light of the recent possible swaplifting, I just wanted to offer a couple thoughts and suggestions on the swap process:

If the person who I am trading with does not have any feedback (either official feedback that shows up on their profile or feedback that has been posted on this thread) I normally ask that they ship first and provide the shipping confirmation number. Once I can see that the package is enroute, I ship my sample. If neither you nor the person you are trading with have any feedback whatsoever, then it's definitely trade-at-your-own-risk, and it's possible (but unlikely) that you might not receive what you're trading for. From what I can tell, almost all the people on this thread truly want to make an honest trade. I once had someone who didn't follow through on a trade, but I just chalked it up to something that's going to happen every so often and the trade wasn't of high value anyway. That and the trades-gone-wrong mentioned by Jadedbeauty and miss6aby are the only (possible) cases of swaplifting that I know of on this thread. If there are more, I would encourage anyone to make note of it in the thread so that others are aware.

In regards to feedback, if you would like to receive official feedback for your trade you must start your own swap post and list your items there*. Then you'll have the correct permissions (according to Makeuptalk parameters) to use that URL when leaving feedback between traders. Since I started this thread, only me and a person I am trading with can use this swap URL for feedback purposes. Many people have taken to simply posting feedback right in the thread and that seems like an acceptable solution for most. If you're determined to get official feedback, but still want all the eyes that this thread gets in order for the best chance of making a trade, I'd recommend starting a separate thread and posting a link to it in this thread. 

Hope this helps!

*You'll need to have been a member for at least 5 days and have at least 15 posts/comments before Makeuptalk will give you access to creating a swap post.

 

[tawnyanshawn]

I started my own trade post, that way people can contact me there for items if you want.  I will still post on here.  I will be going more in depth with my post there.  More makeup items that I have never used and have just set in my makeup collection.  This will help to give me a trading feedback.

Have a great day everyone.
