It looks like the old thread slipped into the archives.

This new shipment just arrived from the bureau today and I thought I'd share.  Blame Windows 10 if the picture looks bad, I'll try to fix it.

Nice cards all!

A few of those look familiar.

I got 2 nice bundles from the bureau 3 weeks ago. I was beginning to wonder if I was going to see any. The funny thing is, of the 40 cards I sent out via the bureau almost 2 years ago, only 12 people answered those. All others were new, sent to me requesting a QSL. I need to sort & answer them soon. I will try to post some later.

Slightly off topic - but I had Jeff K1NSS do a series of customer artwork cards for my use.

Jeff K1NSS is highly recommended - excellent work!

Have you sent them envelopes and stamps ?

If not, you've probably got cards waiting.

Jump on it,....after a while the bureau will throw them away

It's fun to get a big envelope full of DX cards....

Yes, if you haven't already, contact your incoming sorter.

I emailed my incoming sorter, he just had me send him $5 to start. He said that would cover the first mailing & envelope. When he sent me 2 packages of cards, he added a note that I owe him $1.40. I sent him another $10 to cover me for a few years.

My sorter has a way of checking online if you have any cards waiting for you.

I think this is how it works, though I'm not 100% sure.  http://www.cdxa.org/w4qsl-bureau/

That's cool how you can check for any cards you may have waiting. Wish I had that option.

Just to add for those who have never used the bureau service.........

Not all sorters work the same.  My QSL sorter will NOT accept cash or checks .  You must send them SASE envelopes if you want to receive cards through the bureau.  Each call sign area operates differently, so you will have to do some research to see how it works for your particular area.
