Today I received my first ever official postcard, and when I look at the name and the country, I almost can’t believe it! The sender has the same name and country with the first ever official address I draw last september.

I know your post is a few weeks old and I hate to break this to you, but this is the way it works for a lot of people. Unless you are in a country with a lot of active postcrossers (you are not), your address will be drawn a gazillion times in a day. That is the only way it happens for me. That means you will receive more than you send, so for a while your address won’t be drawn until your sent are more than the received, and so on and on. You can read all about it here:
It has nothing do with how many you can send.

Last week I recieved 2 identisk cards from two different postcrossers on the same day! Considering all the millions of different cards out there, I thought that was a rather fantastic coincidence

I got TWO postcards from outside of Charlotte, NC, USA, today! Both were written on the same day, too! Even cooler, the first user’s username is very similar to the second user’s IRL name!

Over the past week I’ve received almost a sweep of nine consecutive card IDs! 6 of them arrived together last Friday and a few others trickled in this past week:
I was so curious if *735 was on its way, too, but I see it was registered by another user.
So wild!

For the “Cat Tag” thread, I sent a card to a Postcrosser in Germany—then received the exact same one from a Postcrosser in Canada who tagged me!

Yesterday I received this card twice, both sent from Germany.
Now I have this card 4, all received from official postcrossing.
I deleted Bob Dylan as wishlist. I don’t want to receive the same card anymore

That is an exceptional occurrence!
at the christmas meetup in my town we were 18 and 3 of us picked up the same address; we found out because it was an unusual country, mexico, so we talked about; if it was a common country we would have probably never found out so i sent the meetup postcard, the second sender sent a postcard from an old meetup and the third sent something different

Yesterday I received two cards from USA. Sent on same day. Only three numbers difference in ID. Same picture, same stamp. Sent less than thousand kilometres apart.

Wow - that is amazing!!
That was some strange thing happening on 14 January. Maybe it’s not uncommon but it’s first time for me to receive so many cards sent on one day and with consecutive IDs.
