Description:

For this swap, you will send to your one (1) partner a larger, oversized postcard. I believe the standard postcard is 4X6 but someone feel free to correct me if I am wrong on that. The oversized postcard will be senders choice, sent naked (written on with some nice message to your partner, and of course, stamped). Please keep in mind that since these postcards are larger, the postage will be higher than the 33 cent cards. I believe one regular stamp should be fine, though, except for those sending internationally. All participants must have at least a 4.98 rating or higher to join & have completed at least ten (10) Type 2 swaps. Sorry, no 3's or 1's within the past 6 months that cannot be explained, or proven that you are working on resolving them. Please be sure to include the swap title as well as your Swap Bot ID on the card. When received, please don't forget to rate your partner. Immediately prior to assigning partners, I will be reviewing profiles and will ban anyone that does not fall within the criteria listed. If necessary, and it certainly shouldn't be necessary with such a simple, low cost swap, I will angel, after you have tried to communicate with your partner with no success and have rated them a (1). If there are any flakers, I will report them to the Flakers forum. So, senders choice, oversized postcard, larger than 4X6, sent naked, one partner.....that's it! Hopefully, this will be easy and fun for everyone who joins! If you should have any questions or concerns, please comment below since I don't check my emails on a regular basis, and I don't want to miss any of your questions. SOOOOO...let's swap some oversized postcards to add to our collection. This will be fun. One last note, this is going to have a short sign up time as well as a short mailing deadline. Thanks for reading. Hope you will join and enjoy the postcard you receive!.

Yes, the usual size for postcards now is 4"x6" = 10cm x15cm. And for US domestic postage is 46 cents.

Hi Swan: Thanks! I was pretty sure that a standard sized postcard was 4X6, so thanks for the clarification and also for the metric converstion. I did know that US postage is 46 cents for a letter, flat mail, etc, but when I mentioned the 33 cents, I was referring to the cost of a postcard stamp here in the US. I just wanted to be sure that all the partners in this swap were aware that an oversized postcard would cost more than an ordinary 4X6 postcard here in the good old US of A. Have a great day, Swan. Are you joining this swap? Hope so! Happy Swapping! :)
