I have less and less expired cards⌠Because many of them are dropping off the system as they were sent a year ago! I really do think I lost forever at least 10 cards in 2020, probably a bit more.
I now have two long-expired cards to the Netherlands, which is really bizarre (active members so they would have registered the cards if they had arrived). Iâm thinking of re-sending which I donât usually do, it still will bother me that the first card didnât arrive. I know, not much to do there.
I believe that Belarusian post still works quite well.
Of, course, I cannot see expired postcard from USA that were sent to me, however the ones I registered during last months didnât take so much time for travelling:
Hello, everyone.
I currently have three expired cards.
Two members are active and the third member has been inactive for over a month.
In the past I only had a few expired cards.
I was lucky that the second cards, for whatever reason, still reached the recipient.
I even got a thank you postcard back from a female postcrosser!
In the meantime I have switched to not sending any more cards.
You have to live with that when you do postcrossing, as hard as it sounds 
Hi, Iâve send a card to Belarus in Septembre and it was received beginning of Octobre âŚ
⌠and received one from Belarus recently, too.
Just received an expired card recently. It took 198 days!!! From India to Germany:

Sometimes postcards get very delayed or sometimes lost in the mail, itâs frustrating when that happens, but remember the majority of everyoneâs mail gets delivered.

One arrived recently. Russia and recently recibe 3 from Russia.
Oh is time . Ah ufffâ:smiley:
more time than usually. Or normally. Thanks for the information.
To add to othersâ comments on this - during the pandemic, mail got really chaotic. I suspect sometimes post offices had to close suddenly and a bag of mail just got forgotten. Then, when people return, the bag gets found and sent.
Iâve recently been receiving cards from Russia in the fairly typical timeframe of 40-50 days. But during the week, I got two cards sent from Russia in mid-February, which suddenly arrived.

I have my first postcard of 60 days today. I checked the recipientâs profile and realized she last registered cards on 6 August, about a dozen of them on the same day and nothing since. I wonder why people want to be on Postcrossing when they just sit on these cards. Oh well, just venting.

Has anyone resent a postcard if it expires?

Once in a while, but not often - having cards lost & expired is a normal part of Postcrossing.
The receiver doesnât know the card is missing & you are not expected to resend a lost card.
Itâs sad when a card doesnât make it, but you have to get used to the fact that once you mail the card, itâs out of your control.
Remember the vast majority of cards do make it to their destination and right now especially the mail will be slower as long as the Omicron waves continues - it might still arrive later next year.

Funny enough, I messaged a user the other day to see if a card (60 days travelling) had arrived. They said it hadnât and was likely lost, so I wrote (and planned to send, still will!) another one.
Today, three days later⌠I got a hooray message for the card! It arrived
