The Thrill is Gone!


I must stay I had to step away from post carding for a few months. Between my personal life and people playing games in the postcard trading world it got to be a little too much. This hobby can become few stressful and if stress is part of it then you need to back away because it's no longer fun.
We as post carders tend to turn this trading into a business in a great since. Wheeling and dealing for postcards...as if they were stocks. Here is the problem we're not making a dime on it. Even in so cases we're losing money with those losers that don't complete their trades/swaps. You spend $2.00 (the card and the postage overseas) and get nothing back. $2.00 or .75 cents, it's not cool being scammed on a post card trade; and if you do a multiple postcard trade… well…$$$. THIS HOBBY IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE STRESSFUL!!! There I got that out of my system.
So when it gets to be too much; stop for a while and let your poscard pals know that postcard burn out has set in. Shut down you Face Book postcard album down and go for a walk. This hobby which is so much fun should be just that...FUN! Trading should not be a downer...but something that brings a smile to your face when you open your mailbox.
Happy postcard trading!
