Re: [DX-CHAT] IRC's For Sale
Bob's post on about-to-expire IRC's just got me thinking... How do QSL managers handle incoming IRC's GS's? In other words, when I send a manager an envelope containing a request, is it opened right away and any cash or IRC's removed (and duly noted, of course), or are the $$ etc. left in place until the actual processing of the requested QSL card? I know this may sound like a dumb question -- and yes, I know every manager has their own way of doing things, so YMMV VWPBL(STn) -- but the upcoming expiration date on the 1st Generation New IRC's makes me wonder. I don't want to put Bob (or another QSL manager) to the trouble and bother of selling sending me IRC's if, by the time the receiving QSL Manager gets his hands on them to exchange for postage, they will have already expired. OTOH, it beats arguing with the local bank branch about needing more than 1 or 2 $2 bills at a time... or at least crisp $1 bills... especially when sending to a manager that wants 2 IRC's or US$3 for postage due to currency exchange fluctuations... (you wouldn't believe how many teller lectures I've gotten over the years on the dangers of sending cash through the mail. *sigh*) Thoughts? 73, ron w3wn From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 2006/10/06 Fri AM 10:00:15 CDT To: dx-news@njdxa.org Subject: [DX-NEWS] IRC's For Sale REDUCED CLOSEOUT PRICE FOR IRCS: N2OO has a limited number IRCs for sale.

Re: [DX-CHAT] IRC's For Sale
I usually "pull" all contents from the QSL mail upon arrival and write all info on the back of the sender's envelope. including "Call(s) requested", enclosures removed (such as 2 irc's or $5 or $1.17 postage, etc) and any special request info. Then I file everything in appropriate batches for future processing. I will always try to sell IRC's I am dreading the Dec31, 2006 IRC's that come in towards the end of December since I will have to "train" the local postal clerk on how to exchange them for postage. Looks like many active QSL managers know where they will be on New Year's Eve this year hihihihi Any requests including any of these 2006IRC's that arrive here in late December or laterwill have to be answered via the bureau..

I always get my year's supply of new $1 bills right after Thanksgiving, because most banks lay in a supply then for their customers who ask for them to include in Holiday cards to kids, etc. 73, Jerry K3BZ 73, Jerry K3BZ - Original Message - From: Ron Notarius W3WN [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: dx-chat@njdxa.org Sent: Friday, October 06, 2006 11:56 AM Subject: Re: [DX-CHAT] IRC's For Sale Bob's post on about-to-expire IRC's just got me thinking...

Re: [DX-CHAT] IRC's For Sale
This is a great and timely question, since I'll be sending out a batch of the expiring IRCs sometime this month. That gives the manager only a couple of months to cash them. I don't want to stiff the manager, but I also don't want to take a loss on each IRC I'm holding (pay $1.20 but redeem for 0.84). 73 - Jim AD1C --- Ron Notarius W3WN [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Bob's post on about-to-expire IRC's just got me thinking...

Re:[2][DX-CHAT] IRC's For Sale
Well, let's be honest with ourselves... we've all known this day was coming for 5 years now, since the first issuance of the new IRC. And we'll be going through it again in another 5 years or so, unless the bureaucracy relents (hah!) In my case, since I have a small number of cards to go out that have been sitting awhile, I should be OK getting a small quantity of IRC's from Bob and getting them out -- immediately. I suspect things will get VERY interesting come late November and December, and frankly, I don't envy QSL managers who have to deal with procrastinators (like me), or people who don't bother to read the coupons, or people trying to pull a fast one... I wonder if managers still get brown surface IRC's from time to time? (Considering all of the odd stuff they get, I wouldn't be at all surprised!) 73, ron w3wn From: Jim Reisert AD1C [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 2006/10/06 Fri PM 12:04:08 CDT To: Ron Notarius W3WN [EMAIL PROTECTED], dx-chat@njdxa.org Subject: Re: [DX-CHAT] IRC's For Sale This is a great and timely question, since I'll be sending out a batch of the expiring IRCs sometime this month.
