The checkout system will only allow electronic payments but we do accept money order and checks. You must send us an email from the contact link with the names of the postcards you wish to purchase. We will place a hold on the item or items you wish to purchase and email you an invoice for the total cost including shipping. It would be helpful if you would send a reply to accept the invoice and include the invoice with your payment.
*** Payment must be received within 10 business days.

If we have not received payment within 10 days, the items will be returned to a for sale status.
We have been asked if we would accept cash payments in US dollars. Yes we will, however we don’t encourage it because of the risk of sending cash in the mail. The risk of lost payment would be the buyers risk, but we will accept well concealed US cash. To checkout, follow the directions above for checks or money orders.
GRADING:
The descriptions refer to the photo side. All grades may have been postally used. All grades may have writing on the address side or on the front in the case of the early cards that didn’t allow messages on the back. If writing is on the front, it must remain in the white space or it affects the grade.
EXCELLENT (EX) – Like new in appearance with no bends or creases.
VERY GOOD (VG) - Corners slightly rounded. Almost undetectable crease does not detract from appearance
GOOD (G) - Corners may be noticeably blunt or rounded with small noticeable bends or creases
AVERAGE (A) - Creases more pronounced, corners more rounded, some soiling, may have tiny closed tear
FAIR (F) – Like Average, but postal mark visible on front, minor writing on the front photo
Poor (PR) - excess soil, stained, heavy creases, may have corner missing
We do sell cards in poor condition because some collectors would rather have a card in poor condition than not have the card at all.

Postcards can not be returned because you disagree with the stated grade. Please view the photos and ask questions prior to purchase.
