[CLOSED] Group order for World Postcard Day 2024 [UK ONLY]

Hello friends of the BI Forum,

In an attempt to be organised and secure the sweet sweet bulk order discounts from printing sites (can anyone tell I work in Procurement) I am offering to organise a collective order of the WPD 2024 card design. UK ONLY

Final prices of the cards depends on how many I end up ordering.
500 postcards = postcards are 9p each

Postage options
I will send all orders in a large letter envelope (backed by cardboard to protect your cards). This is £1.55 - 2nd class (up to 100g).
If you order more than 100g (probably 10-15 cards plus) then it will be £1.90.

If you’d prefer tracked we can do that, let me know but obvs more expensive.

Payment options include:

  • Paypal (please use family and friends option only)
  • Bank transfer
    (or Guinea pigs, but a puppy is better)

Please note I will not send the cards unless payment has been made prior (this is because I have had a few bad experiences previously, sorry.). I will send proof of postage.

Thank you everyone! Please comment below how many you’d like.

Specs of postcards

A6 (105x148mm), on vistaprint premium matte paper

Timeline
I’ll leave this open for at least a few weeks, give people a chance to see it. Order around mid Aug. Get posted late Aug/early Sept so you have the cards in time.

Hello @BionicBookLover, please leave your order on the thread itself, I’m not the organiser of the bulk order

Hello, this thread is for UK only, sorry (it isn’t very practical for me to figure out exchange rates with payment and international postage is very expensive from the UK).

You could post in the international one which @Seracker sent the link to.

What do you mean by official postcard?

So when you request an address? Is that how you are officially marked on your profile - as sending a postcard on that day? Thank you :smiling_face:

You get the WPD badge when your card (drawn on 1 Oct in your timezone) is registered

People do save up slots for WPD itself so they can request for an address

You need to save slots (I always think 3 in case a postcard doesn’t make it) for October 1st. Once one of the postcards that you send on 1st October is registered you will get the little WPD symbol by your name.
