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). If you are a stamp collector and would prefer to receive your postcard in an envelope (so the stamps can be removed more easily), please leave a comment below to that effect.

Please attach at least six postage stamps to your postcard or envelope, but try to use as many as possible to make up the sending rate.

Newbies are welcome on a fairly selective basis. Please have a well filled out profile (with a nice listing of your likes as well as a self introduction) and consider joining the Newbie Helpers group. If I see both of these things when I'm checking your profile, you're in.

I will be checking participants profiles and ratings thoroughly before assigning partners. If you are currently showing as late on any swaps, I will request that you follow through on those before participating in this one. 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.

I do angel all of my swaps, although I will make every possible effort to ensure that my swaps remain flaker-free.

Would attaching used postage stamps on the front of a blank postcard be acceptable (if partner does not mention they want it in envelope and separated)? Then add new stamps to send off the postcard. Has that been done before? I have so many double/triple that i think i can pull that off with a blank postcard..

@farangelinan I'm a little confused about what you might mean here-- are you asking whether you can take a blank card (such as an index card or piece of blank cardboard) and create a sort of collage with used stamps on one side of it?

Please send post card in a envelope with stamps on the envelope. It doesn't matter if the post card is written on, or not. Thank you.

If possible I wouldn't mind my postcard inside an envie:)
