WARNING!!!! US POSTAGE RATES ARE GOING UP JANUARY 21ST, 2018. POSTCARDS: 35-CENTS. FIRST CLASS LETTER: 50-CENTS.

Been saving more cardboard than you send? Here is a chance to clear out some of your stash. This is a Cardboard Postcard swap (CBPC). You will send one card each to 10 partners. Do not use an envelope.

The postcards should be made out of ANY kind of reused cardboard saved from the trash/recycling. Please use only CLEAN cardboard. Additional decoration is sender's choice, and is strictly optional - only a chunk o' cardboard is required. Please include a short message to your partner - it's optional, but more fun don't you think?

The maximum postcard size which can be sent for the first class letter rate is 6-1/8" x 11-1/2".

The maximum postcard size which can be sent for the postcard rate is 4-1/4" x 6".

If you have any questions, please PM me - I don't check the comments often.

Some Housekeeping Info

Firstly, thanks so much for joining my swaps, people. It's a lot fun for me. They've grown in size to the point where I need to take some steps to control the amount of time that it takes to manage them.

  • Communicate Communicate Communicate I won't be checking to see who's naughty and who's nice. I'm counting on you to let me know about any problems. If you have a question or problem, please let your partner know and give them a chance to respond. If can't resolve the issue, then let me know and I'll do what I can to help work it out.

  • Senders Please send your items on time and remember to mark your swap as "sent". Please let your partner know if you are going to send late. Many swappers won't mind a bit of delay as long as you keep people informed. Before assigning partners for future swaps, I will remove anyone has not marked an item "sent" for a previous swap. If you want to be in the next swap, then send your items and mark them as sent.

  • Recipients If you haven't received anything a week or two after the swap deadline, please let your partner know. If you still don't receive an item (or a satisfactory response), leave a "1" rating then contact me to send an angel replacement. I will angel only if you rate the swap appropriately. Accurate ratings are the only way I can weed out unreliable senders from future swaps. And that's good for everyone.

Hey! International swappers are stashing up too! I joined ( & hosted) a few "cardboard PC" swaps, but it's not as much fun if it is not called "Chunk O Cardboard" !!!!
