:aussie5:


So, now that’s out the way, the registration for the 2013 Australia Day pen swap is officially open!

:australia:




Please be sure to register by midnight (Australian Eastern Daylight Savings time) on January 25th, 2013 so I can include you in the draw to receive a swap partner.

Everyone is welcome, from beginners to experts. The more the merrier. By joining you have the chance to make new friends and receive some great pens.

So here’s what you have to do. In this thread only, state your name, country you live in and your swap partner preference.(s) This will be overseas (OS) or domestic (DOM; the country you live in). Feel free to state one or the other. Both if you’d like to receive and make two pens. For example:

Name: Scott.
Country: Australia.
Preference: DOM & OS.
Extra: Yes.


Added by DJ's Timber, For ease of editing and adding names, could people please post everything on one line please, as I've posted on the next line, thank you.

Scott, Australia. DOM & OS.

Last year we needed volunteers to do extra swaps. Feel free to nominate now if you’d like to do an extra (if required).

On the 26th of January I’ll randomly match swap partners and list them in this thread.

After the draw is completed contact your partner(s), make a pen and send it post haste. Blanks can also be exchanged if desired however that’s between your partner and yourself. The swap is open to all styles of pens. Please complete all swaps by 31st of March, 2013.

When you’ve received your partner’s swap, take a photo and post it to the forum. A thread to place your photos will be set up.

Please, keep in contact with your swap partner regularly. Delays do happen, so communicate if there is one. If something occurs where you cannot complete your swap (stuff happens), PLEASE contact your partner and myself and I’ll arrange another swap partner.
