Ok y'all its been decided to do a Hawaiian Shirt Swap next.

Rules -

**1 shirt for 1 shirt but feel free to send whatever you want or however many shirts you want but this is a casual swap so save all the extras for the next mug swap :)

***When joining up send me (regardless if you have sent me the info before)
Name
Address
Shirt sizes you can wear
Shirt sizes you have to trade

**Hawaiian shirts are NOT :
t-shirts
dresses
shorts
tank tops

They are either with tiki or without , vintage or new, and if they say either Jimmy Buffet or Tommy Bahama on them keep them for yourself!

**Since these puppies are going to be cheap we are swapping international

**enter as many times as you wish - lets make this a huge logistical nightmare for me!! lol

**when posting pics it would be AWESOME to post one of you wearing the shirt so we can not only match names to faces but ooh and ahh over the awesomeness of the swap

***LAST DAY TO JOIN UP IS APRIL 1---I will match everyone that week and the swap by date is April 15

Anyone think of anything else let me know

Lets get some shirt swapping started!!

I am an Excel spreadsheet addict...thank god since its going to come in handy here!

I'm in! Give me a couple of days to figure out what I'm trading, but I'm definitely IN!

~Zero

if that is too many I'll do 2 shirts...

[ Edited by: ZeroTiki 2010-04-01 12:11 ]

Z

...........and bump.

L

hey Zero you are in for 4.

I will make sure everyone who sent me info on how many shirts they want to swap get the right number.

I have had a stressful week (it was month end and i do accounting) so I need a spreadsheet break until tomorrow :)

Last call for swappers.....names will be sent out tomorrow by late afternoon i am thinking.

Thanks for doing this Liz! You're the best!

Yes Liz, THANKS for all you're doing for this! Really looking forward to seeing what everybody gets!

Z

Agreed! Liz is the bestest!!

L

Just wanted you all to know that if you wear a size 2XL that you most likely will NOT be getting a shirt you can button up.

The amount of larger shirts out there to swap is off by a lot.

If a 2XL shirt is not available you will be getting an XL and if that is not available you will be getting a L

Just wanted you to know so you arent surprised.

I think 2 of you have not received your swapping partners names...and that is because I am waiting on addresses.

Please try and send your shirt by Friday of this week.

Hopefully everyone will enjoy what they get!

Hi,

If this is the case with the shirts then I'm afraid the trade is a bust for me...

I cant see the point in trading off shirts blind for ones that will not fit.

Please advise anyone sending shirts to me that i can no longer take part due to this.

If the shirts have already been mailed I will ship them back to the sender at my own expense.

I don't want to screw the trade up, but anything less than 2xl is of no use to me.

Pikeys Dog, sorry to hear that you're out. I guess we didn't get enough traders to accommodate everybody. You were not one of my trades.

Maybe I'll send you a consolation prize, instead.

Got my cool swap package with lotsa goodies from Atomic Tiki Punk!


An awesome green shirt, plus lots of swizzles and some coasters, some stickers, paper parasols (can never have too many of those!), a great Big Toe print (signed, no less!) a cool palstic octopus, and to top it all off, a 2-disc DVD of Big Trouble in Little China! (I'm watchin' that tonite!)

Mucho Mahalos, Atomic Tiki Punk!

Hope you dig it! I really liked the shirt.
