Christmas is just around the corner, so let's get ready for our Ebay.ph Christmas Exchanging Gift 2008! This is our 4th Ebay.ph Secret Santa party and we hope everyone will join!! To have a hassle-free party, we need to have some party rules. Please read the entire post below to get an idea how we will go about with this event.
REGISTRATION: If you are a SELLER, you must be an active seller who has at least TWENTY (20) POSITIVE unique feedbacks from different buyers & at least one item was sold within September/October prior to submitting your information. Positive Feedback Rating of at least 98%.
If you are BUYER, you must be an active buyer who has at least TWENTY (20) POSITIVE unique feedbacks & at least one item was bought within September/October prior to submitting your information. Positive Feedback Rating of at least 98%.
NOTE: Look at your feedback at ebay.com & it shows separate tabs as a buyer and seller. If you think you have enough unique buyers to reach the 20 minimum, then you're in. If your percentage rate is less than 98%, you need a REGISTERED GUARANTOR who will be responsible in sending a gift in case you fail to do so.
So, GUARANTORS you must email me also confirming that you want to guarantee someone else's registration and that you agree that you are responsible in sending a gift in case the person you guaranteed failed to send a gift to her Santa Baby. So mas mabigat ang requirement for the sponsor/guarantor, remember this!
Cut off date for signing up October 20th & absolutely no sign-up after this date.
To sign up, email your information to me: Ebay.ph Seller ID, Name, Complete shipping address, Email address & Cellphone Number/Landline if cellphone is not available.
Send your registration info thru MY LISTING page & use the CONTACT MEMBER or ASK SELLER A QUESTION.
I will POST your USERNAME here on the Board to confirm your registration and after I have verified that you are an active Ebay.ph member.
!!!!DO NOT SIGN UP IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SEND A GIFT!!!!!
THE GIFT: Php500.00 PLEASE keep this as the MINIMUM amount for the GIFT.
Secret Santas are not forced to spend more than P500 but you can be as generous as you want, so don't limit yourself if you can afford it. Please note the wish-list of your Secret Baby to give you an idea of what he/she likes to receive.
Santa Baby (if you are the receiver that is!), please DO NOT EXPECT MORE than the MINIMUM amount. As long as your Secret Santa sent you a gift package that is worth P500.00, then he/she has done his/her responsibility! If you post your wish-list, please keep in mind to be reasonable within the P500 minimum. You can WISH for more expensive items but it is not GUARANTEED!
From the last 3 years' Secret Santa Party, EVERYONE gave gifts more than P500 which made everyone feel so special! BUT THEN AGAIN, it is not mandatory to give more than P500.00.
SHIPPING is NOT included on the Php500.00 minimum amount.
THE HINT-Giving Period: On Oct. 21st, we will give out the list of all those who registered. Santa and his helper will draw the names randomly. We will email you the name of your Santa Baby.
Then on Oct. 21st we will start a "Secret Santa-HINT or WISH LIST" where everyone who has signed up can post hints or a wish list about what they like to receive as gifts. We will also post some questions that would tell us a little bit about yourself and things that you like and things that you want. The reason for this "getting to know you" is for us Ebay.ph community members to know more the people behind our usernames and IDs.
Please note that we also would like to ENCOURAGE everyone to buy things as gifts here on Ebay in order for our Ebay.ph sellers to benefit our party. You can include Ebay auction links or item numbers if you have certain items that you want/find here on Ebay! This is not mandatory but only if possible. Let's help Ebay.ph grow!
Cut-off date for HINT giving is November 4th. So, you better start thinking of what you want, as soon as you register.
SENDING GIFTS: If you are sending gifts to a giftee outside Philippines and vice versa, SHIP PRIORITY MAIL NO LATER than November 10th, to make sure your gift arrives on Christmas.
If you and your giftee both have Philippine addresses, SHIP no later than November 20th.
Please email me your shipper & tracking number & date of shipment, as soon as you shipped your package. This is for me to KNOW that all gifts are mailed as scheduled and we can send reminders to those who love the thrill of being late or forgetful!
RECEIVING GIFTS: November 20th, we will POST PHOTOS of the gifts we received. If you don't know how to post a photo, or need some help in doing so, please email me of your picture or ask some help.
REMINDER, it is a good idea to take some pictures of the items you sent, just in case your recipient doesn't have time to post when she/he receives it. At least, you can let the community know what you sent!
SANTA'S HELPERS:
icancr8! and I are Secret Santa's helpers. PLUS, all the wonderful and regular Santa's Elves who are always around to help in answering questions from new party goers. So, don't hesitate to post your questions here for someone will answer for sure.
Just email us if you have any questions that you want me or icancr8! to answer. Let's have fun!!
Would like to join sana but karlosbooks is still short on the required FBs.
May time pa naman but in case I can't reach the FBs on time (which is a big possibility at the rate my FBs are moving), I will BEG you to PLEASE VOUCH for me.
