In return you will receive 50 postcards from a random postcard collector and 50 postcards from myself (the swap coordinator). Total number of postcard you will send (and received) is 100 (one hundred). Postcards can be new or written (but not damaged) and NOT duplicated.

So we all have to send YOU 50 postcards plus our swap partner 50 postcards? And how do we rate you or get rated by you? And how do we know you will send us EACH 50 cards?

Too risky to me.

He seems cool - I traded with him, recently.

Can any of them be vintage???? I am watching for now. Thanks in advance.

I used to swap with him and he is a very reliable swapper.

Thanks guys for the "good" feedback...

I'm happy to send you the 50 cards first... so like this you are sure not to get cheated by me... But then you will also have to send me your 50 POSTCARDS ! If peoples do not send me the promised card I will BAN then for any further swap I organize...

Postcard can indeed be vintage or modern (but not damaged).

Unfortunately no rating can be given or received for the postcards you are sending me or receiving from me... But you get card moving and hopefully get new one for your collection (and get rid of some unwanted)!

I actually have more than 100.000 cards in stock right now (so I can swap with 2000 peoples 2.000 x 50 cards = 100.000) ! Laurent (the swap coordinator)

Thank you. I'm not sure if I have 100 all different though. I have to check.

How do you get that many postcards? Sorry I'm curious because I don't even have that many ... but would be interested in the future possibly if I got enough?

I swap a LOT of card, my small business also publish postcards ( Postcard Interactive Company of Sydney ) and I swap with 100 of peoples around the world and get very active on many project like swap-bot (get some card good for me, but also a LOT which are of no interest to me). I also buy a lot of card at auction in Sydney and in second hand markets around Australia... Also travel a lot and purchase heaps of postcards... when available...

I want to join this swap, but I want all my cards to be new and unwritten on. I don't want any postcards that are used or vintage. Thanx.

Hello DancingWolves, I could be sending you 50 new un-written cards but not sure if you official swap partner will be able to do the same... I can personally accept old(er) or written card (but not damaged)

This sounds like an interesting swap, but I need to check to see if I have enough cards. I'll be back if I find that I do have enough.

Well good luck Cynthia, hope you register soon ! you will need to have 100 cards to send for sure (mine can be vintage if you happen to have some old card around no one want !)
