Last day to signup/drop:January 10, 2015
Date items must be sent by:January 24, 2015
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

To make this clear, a used postcard is one that has a stamp on it and has been mailed to someone. Due to postage costs, this is a USA only swap.

Many of us enjoy and collect used postcards. They are as valuable to a collection as a new one! Plus it is fun to see where they come from, and on older ones, read the news of the day.

For this swap, you will have one partner, and will send them 25 used postcards. They can be any size and from any era.

However, they MUST be in excellent condition! Cards must not have any stains, tears, bends, or other damage. On older used cards, some corner wear is age appropriate.

Please only send cards that you would like to receive. It is sender's choice, but do check your partner's profile to see if you have cards they would like.

RATING REQUIREMENTS: 5.0 rating with at least 30 type 3 swaps completed. This swap will be held on a monthly basis! Please join us!

I might join a monthly swap in the future, when I've done enough swaps. As a postcrosser I can say that not many postcards travel through the mail and arrive without damage. . .

I am considering joining, but most of my cards have gone thru the mail and are thus not necessarily in excellent condition (which I interpret as like new). Is ok if they have normal mail wear on them?

I have been a Postcrosser for years = LOVE IT!! Most of my cards arrive with minimal damage. Some wear is acceptable. Cards that are bent, torn, stained, etc are not acceptable. Most used cards are ok to send. Just don't send junk, or a card that you wouldn't want to receive! The cards don't need to be perfect!
