. There was no delay In shipment, because it was never sent out, she was suppose send out fri, then sat then mon haven't heard anything since Sunday from her. So I now get it is trade at own risk..I've learned my lesson , go with your gut instinct from beginning!
I obviously don't know any of the circumstances here but I will say that I generally don't start getting worried about trades-gone-wrong until at least a couple weeks have passed. Life is unruly and sometimes things come up that are more important than shipping tiny bottles of cosmetics. I will grant that in these cases communication is important, but even then, someone may need a week or two to get themselves together enough to be at a point where checking in online becomes feasible. Swaplifting does happen, and it is important to be cautious, but I might suggest waiting a little longer and giving AmberStarr a chance instead of jumping to conclusions after only a week.
 
Here's What I have up for trade right now:

  • Wen- Sweet Almond Mint (MyGlam) 2oz
  • Color Club- Clambaked Coaral (Birchbox) 0.25 Fl. Oz
  • Revolution Freedom Glow- Sunkissed (BirchBox) Swatched once clean hand. (Full Size)
  • Eye Rock Designer Liner (Birchbox)
  • Shady Lady by the Balm in Shameless shana (MyGlam) Swatched on clean hand (Full Size)
  • MyGlam Shadow & Eyeliner Brush from April's bag. (Brand New)

I don't have a wishlist per say. I am pretty open. I love eye shadows, face scrubs and creams. Also interested in a Stila from this months Birchbox (any color). Pm Me

I agree with this. I'm a new trader here, but I've traded on other sites frequently. I try to always ship within a few days, and let people know if it's going to be longer than that, but I realize that life happens and don't *expect* anyone to ship any sooner than a week or so later unless they say they will, and even then, if it's the next week, I totally get it. I would hope that the same benefit of the doubt would be granted to me if I ever ran into any issues with getting something out promptly

I have been swaplifted before but that is why it is very important to leave each other feedback.
 Yup G. Only trade with people you know or that have FEEDBACK. I have had issues too. Communication is parmount! Even if it takes a month to send me my item just let me know so I do not think I am being swaplifted.
