Cards & Cover Exchange Guidelines
These covers, post cards, and maxi-cards may be received if you are the first to ask for that item. I prefer that your part of the trade is in postally used recent stamps from your country.
The number and proportion (50/50 small-to-large or large only) is displayed below each item.
Mailings of over 125 stamps may include minimal duplication, but try to keep this to less than 4 of any one stamp, and at least 60% all different, unless we negotiated otherwise.
(ie. If 200 stamps are sent, then there are at least 120 different and the other 80 are duplicates of those).
If you do not collect stamps or have no way of fulfilling my request, we might be able to bargain for collectible banknotes, coins, or for stamps from another country. Please contact me with your offer.
The only other option is for you to make a reasonable offer to purchase them. The postage on any purchased item will be added to whatever total that we agree upon and must be remitted via PayPal using their Pay a Friend option. This is not my preference as I have not set a monetary value on any of these items. If I knew what they were worth, I would try to sell them instead of swapping them!

Each posts requirements are different, so please read that post completely.
All posts with multiple items that requires 200 or more stamps from you, may not be combined with any other items.
I will not accept those due to the excess weight and bulk of the parcel that I would have to mail.
This is to minimize the possibility of any issues with the postal authorities and/or to lessen any disappointment if something gets damaged or lost in the mail.
For these trades, the stamps that you send must have no duplication or faults.
Faults can be rounded corners, tears, cuts, trimmed perfs, thins, creases, or anything else that can lessen the value of it.
They must be recent (for these trades, I consider anything issued after 1990 to be recent) and virtually all (at least 90+%) must be from your country, unless another agreement is reached.

If you want to trade for something other than the requested stamps or have any questions, either option would be a good way to ask!
After I receive your email, I will mark the item as pending and wait for your cover to arrive.
Once everything is received and verified, I will post your item to the return address displayed on your cover.
Send your part of the trade to:
My return postage will reflect what you use. If you use recent large stamps, then I will also use them. If you don't, then you should expect to receive similarly small and/or older stamps on your cover.
I reserve the right to reject any trade for any reason. If so, your part will be returned in the same condition that it was received.
