real deal post card comp

cinders59 · 28 July 2015 at 6:15PM

I have started looking at the post card comps and the real deal ones finish the day after the show for phone and text, and only 3 days after for the post card entry

Is there any chance that the post cards would get there in that time frame.
does anyone know how long a 1st class post card takes to be delivered

thanks

First class should be delivered the following day

That's "should be" but almost 7 in 100 are not.

agree with the "should be" like many others have had postcards returned to me decpite having large TO and FROM in big red felt tip on them

If you used a red pen when putting TO then it wouldn't have gone through the sorting machine. What I do is I just put their address on the front. Turn the card and write on the back putting FROM with two lines underneath in a diagonal sort of angle and big enough to read and I will add my details and a contact number too. I have sent over 600 postcards doing this and no postcards have come back. I would imagine most would have arrived for me to have 4 small wins.
