Description:

I adore receiving postcards to which the sender has attached a bunch of interesting postage stamps; I figured that there were probably a few like-minded people here on Swap Bot.

For this swap, you'll choose a postcard with consideration towards the receivers preferences (check their profile after partners are assigned) and you'll send your cards naked (without an envelope). Please attach at least six postage stamps to your postcard, but try to use as many as possible to make up the sending rate.

Newbies are welcome at my discretion and with well-filled out profiles only.

I will be checking participants profiles and ratings thoroughly before assigning partners; please note that if you are currently showing as late on any swaps I will request that you follow through on those before participating in this swap. Similarly, if you have a 1 rating and have not made an effort to follow through on the swap owing to your partner (especially if they are still an active member of the site), I will likely ask that you do this before participating in any of my swaps.

Please note that I do angel all of my swaps, although I will make every possible effort to ensure that my swaps remain flaker-free. Finally, late sends or flaking on any of my swaps will affect your ability to participate in my swaps in future.

So that's $1.10 international, right?

Is it possible to get a partner who's not living in the U.S.? I already participated in the last swap of this kind and it would be great to get other stamps from another country this time :)

@dial208medusa USPS currently requires $1.10 in postage on a postcard traveling outside of the USA. I've heard that rates will be increasing in the New Year, but as the deadline for this swap is the 30th, you'll be fine with the $1.10.

Postcards sent within the US cost only 33 cents, as long as they are not oversized or bulky.

@basilikum83 Swap bot assigns partners randomly, although you may be able to set up a private swap with another (international) member for a similar swap to this one. :)
