Are postcards worth their price?
Postcards are a quaint gift once again; a cheap and quick way to send someone back home. However, the cost for sending postcards has skyrocketed in recent years. It's not unusual for an inexpensive envelope to cost up to ten dollars when you factor in an ink stamp and postage. But there are plenty of places where you can send them for less than five dollars! Have you considered this option? The key is choosing the right website that offers affordable rates and also allow you to personalize your postcard with any photo or message within reason. Here are a few sites that offer relatively low prices for postcards:

Author: Jennifer Chwalek (jenn) (Member since Jun '08)
Short Opinion on this post: Great tip about Gold Star services!
Jenny is new to collecting post cards so she's at a bit of a disadvantage when it comes to posting them.
The amount of time and tips she's listed here is completely acceptable. Since Jenny is new, she's bound to forget some things and overlook others, but so long as her postcard tips are helpful and not too short or brief, I'll give her credit for it. I'll also give her credit for getting this blog up so fast!
Author Bio: I have been a collector of vintage postcards since 2001. Although many collectors have left me cold, the reason for my interest has always remained the same, to know more about them and obtain a better understanding of how they were intended to be used. My collection of postcards has grown exponentially over the years and I now have one of the largest collections on my block.

Title: What is the best strategy for selling postcards?
Author: Richard Chapman (Member since Sep '08) Short Opinion on this post: This article is lacking in a handful of items, however it's still a reasonable good piece, so I'll assume that the writer wrote an entire article and left it unfinished?
Also, I'm curious as to why the author doesn't state exactly what kind of postcards he or she is referring to.
