Description:

A postcard swap for the impatient.

  • Sign up by Saturday.
  • Address postcard to your partner Sunday.
  • Mail postcard on Monday.

Send one store bought postcard to one partner. Send postcard naked (without envelope).

Postcard theme is open.

Open to everyone although I will be checking profiles for potential flakers.


If your assigned partner makes a preference for something different, and you are feeling generous, you may comply if you want too but it's not required. If you do, that would be a good reason for your partner to rate you a heart. :-)

CherieWarhol 06/ 4/2009 #

I only have a home town card so if you get me thats what your getting... I want the same thing too..LOL

janeengland 06/ 4/2009 #

does it have to be a naked card?

GTstamper 06/ 4/2009 #

Hi janeengland, no it doesn't have to be a naked card, but I'll say it's up to the sender to decide.

Any postcard front is good with me. I do like mine naked, like to see where it made the journey from. I would be beside myself if you would consider writting simple short recipe on the back of a dip,drink anything. Only if yoy have the minute to spare & want to. thanks & have a wonderful day!

CherieWarhol 06/ 4/2009 #

I couldn't find any map cards i went to 5 stores I want my card with out and envie does that mean naked? and with happy birthday and the date.... June 8th 2009..lol..

I have a ton of postcards, This will be my first postcard swap, so I am really looking forward to it.

Basilika 06/ 5/2009 #

I'd prefer my card to be sent naked (meaning not in an envelope), please.

GTstamper 06/ 5/2009 #

Thanks for joining this swap everyone, I didn't realize it would be so popular! Spin - keep an eye out, I may host another round of this swap in a few weeks or when the mood strikes me. :-)

I'd like to get mine unwritten, inside an envelope posted with as much stamps as you can with nice cancelations.

Thanks in advance.

RyeRye 06/ 5/2009 #

hmmmm? What is nice cancelations?

GTstamper 06/ 6/2009 #

maybe it means to have it hand canceled at the post office by one of the service workers? I don't know if they have different cancellation stamps... curious to find out.

FROGGY42 06/ 6/2009 #

I do hope you do another swap like this. I think it was a great idea because it's quick and fun and not complicated. You really have gotten a big response. Can't wait to see who my partner will be. My PC is ready....just waiting for the name and address ! Thanks.

EmTabby 06/ 6/2009 #

I'd love to sign up, altho some people have made some very hard requests, for a simple fast postcard swap.

there wasn't anything in the swap desciption, saying about personal preferances. would these effect ratings?

maln 06/ 6/2009 #

Hello GTstamper! I just suscribed on the site so I'm just sending a message to say I'm not a flaker :D If you have a doubt go on www.sirpriz.com I'm in the top five senders! Have a nice week end! Looking forward to send my card!

GTstamper 06/ 6/2009 #

HI EmTabby, This swap is meant for the postcard to be sent naked, without an envelope. I guess I should update the description. People are making requests, which is fine but it really is up to the sender to decide whether to go above and beyond for their partner which just might get you a rating with a heart. Regardless, you mail your postcard naked, even it someone is requesting envie, you are still entitled to your rating of 5 if you get it in mail on Monday. :-)

GTstamper 06/ 6/2009 #

Welcome to the swap main! Thanks for joining!

GTstamper 06/ 7/2009 #

Your partners have been assigned, get those postcards ready for the mail on monday. :-) Have fun! Thanks!

poliveira1978 06/ 7/2009 #

the cancelation is the postmark that "cancels" the stamp, so it can't be used again. Sometimes there are special issues that aren't just the date and place from where you post the card/package/whatever.
