I thought it would be easier to post it publicly instead of a bunch of PM's.

I would like to thank those who have agreed to trade with me.  Many of you sent the cuttings you had available knowing I would not be able to fulfill my end of the deal until Feb-March, if at all. 

Thank you for sending the cuttings to me, but most of all thank you for trusting that I will make good on the trade agreement.  I look at my spreadsheet almost everyday and know which trades are not completed yet.

Hang in there!  You'll get them soon!

You're very welcome.  The cuttings I got from you were fantastic.  I hope you enjoy what I have sent you back as much.

Jo-Ann, I used my spreadsheet, printed out labels, and under my address, I put the item I was to send in code.  Then when I stuck the label on, it was easy to check and make sure I was sending the right thing to the right person.  It does get a little confusing when you are shipping a lot!

Good luck to you!

They arrived!!!  Finally I received the cuttings from the family tree!  I appreciated everyone I had an agreement with for being to patient, they didn't want to prune till they were sure the cold weather was done with. 

So cuttings will go out today/tomorrow and I am sure I will have extras.  I will start a new thread when I have sent out the cuttings that are spoken for.

Thanks again for being patient!  ;)

I think what you are doing in this thread is what should be done, basically acknowledging the agreement which is part of the deal.  I wish that all our members were as thoughtful.  I have gifted and I have traded and a couple of my trades have turned out to be "gifts", not intentional, but there are some that have not lived up to the agreement.  I choose to assume that the agreements were forgotten rather than to believe that they were intentionally disregarded.

THIS IN NO WAY DIRECTED AT YOU, IT JUST TRIGGERED A THOUGHT ABOUT THOSE TRADE "AGREEMENTS" LEFT UNFULFILLED!!!

I know I will regret posting this!!!!

he's right. he's not a spammer, and he is not a troll. 

he's just a liar. if you wish, you can gift him with cuttings, but don't trade with him. you won't see any cuttings in return.

I have to comment here as we have many newbies who are unaware of the problems with Ailee. Bullet is correct, he claims to have all these really cool figs but i don't know one person who got anything from him. If you send anything at all to him it is at your own risk. He talks a good  game, but never delivers. Best thing to do is pass on the warning and ignore him.

Most of them were sent out today, I pm'd those whose address I do not have, so, if we had an agreement please check your pm to make sure I get your address.

Aeilee, very nice of you to chime in for me to take my time.  I didn't recognize your user name so I know we do not have a trade agreement.  I don't recall seeing posts by you and thought that was weird until I searched for your posts and saw until the last day or 2 you haven't posted here since last April!!  You never updated on the cuttings you received last year.  How are they?

good luck with the cuttings.
apart from the trade part i think that people like to see their cuttings grow at other places.....
maybe its a cosmic thing or transfer of energies
i hope i will be able to provide something to this place and the people.....

Not sure if I was on your list, but if I was you'd still have my New Jersey address.  We're in Ohio now.  Hope you didn't send anything!  :-D
