Postcards Under $20:

If you choose "FREE" shipping, the postcard will be sleeved and sent in a thin cardboard mailer using eBay Standard Envelope (ESE) tracking. Note that ESE tracking only tracks movement between processing centers and does not provide mailbox-to-mailbox tracking. A "Delivered" or "Out For Delivery" scan indicates that the postcard has reached the final sorting center prior to your local post office; it may take a few extra days, to a week (& add up to an additional week during Christmas), to reach your mailbox. Expect potential delays of up to 3 weeks within the U.S.

Free ESE Shipping Limitations: The cardboard mailer cannot be marked "Do Not Bend" nor "Hand Cancel" and the postcard cannot be sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard, as these options disqualify it from ESE shipping.

Upgraded Shipping - Ground Advantage or Priority:

YOU may choose to pay for Ground Advantage or Priority shipping, during checkout, for added protection, which includes a sturdy, thick cardboard mailer and mailbox to mailbox USPS tracking. If you wish to upgrade from ESE to Ground Advantage or Priority shipping after your purchase, please contact me immediately, and I'll provide a link to an eBay listing for you to purchase the additional shipping cost.
