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! ;)

JoAnn 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!!!!

Please stop harassing me DesertDance. I am not a spammer, and I do not appreciate you following my posts and belittling me.

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?

joaan 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
