Postcards and Photos are a great collectible and source for future reference for model building, model railroading, scratchbuilding, prototype modeling etc. Postcard and photos are invaluable when you need to know certain details, architectural details, paint colors & schemes, lettering placement etc. for locomotives, freight cars, cabooses, trackage, buildings etc.  Postcards and photos also make great small framed pictures for use in bathrooms, train rooms, halls and other rooms in your house where a small colorful print is needed without overpowering the area.

Not as sharp or crisp.

VERY GOOD
- May have one or two minor defects such as a light crease, bend, blunted or rounded corners, a small amount of postal ink or writing to front that does not detract from the image. May have writing or postal use on the address side.
GOOD

PLEASE READ to understand shipping costs
:
Due to the THICKNESS & STIFFNESS of the envelope due to the cardboard protection, the items ships for the First-Class Package rate rather than the less expensive standard First-Class Letter rate. Presently, Delivery Confirmation/USPS Tracking is ONLY AVAILABLE on items shipped via First-Class PKG and Priority Shipping. Delivery Confirmation/USPS Tracking is NOT AVAILABLE with First-Class Letter rate postage - thus sellers are FORCED to ship items via First-Class PKG or Priority Shipping rates which are more expensive than the First-Class Letter rate.
ADDITIONALLY according to new eBay seller policies, "...
sellers will need to have tracking information uploaded to eBay within their stated handling time on 90% or more of their transactions with US buyers."
This means that we as sellers are REQUIRED to ship at a more expensive shipping rate which includes Delivery Confirmation/USPS TRACKING for tracking purposes. Please visit the USPS website for First-Class Package/Parcel Rate confirmation
.

WHY I DON'T OFFER FREE SHIPPING:
Many SELLERS are now offering "FREE SHIPPING" and have the shipping cost built into the "Buy It Now (BIN)" price - they have to to survive and make money. This usually ONLY saves BUYERS who purchase single items. HOWEVER, if you purchase SEVERAL ITEMS at the BIN price with Free Shipping - YOU PAY TOO MUCH for the items! Most of my customers purchase several postcards or patches to take advantage of the
TEN SHIP FOR PRICE OF ONE
offer. You actually end up paying LESS FOR THE ITEMS at the combined shipping rate! Many of my postcards and patches are listed for .95 - there is no way for me to sell a .95 item and include free shipping when US Postage (following eBay shipping guidelines to include USPS TRACKING) would cost .07!
FOR EXAMPLE, if I list an item and include free shipping (shipped 1st Class Letter Post with no tracking) for a .95 item, my costs might be: EBay Listing Fee
{{detail_product_description}}.15
(each month) + EBay Selling Fee (9% effective July 2014)
{{detail_product_description}}.18
+ PayPal Fees (2.9% + 30 Cents)
{{detail_product_description}}.36
+ Postage
{{detail_product_description}}.49
+ Envelope
{{detail_product_description}}.07
=
.25
Thus Selling price
.95 - .25
Costs =
{{detail_product_description}}.70 to cover COST OF ITEM & overhead
IF the item was LISTED AND SOLD in the FIRST MONTH
. When you remove the cost for the item, I would be in the hole!
The above does not include time to list the item, package the item, taking it to the Post Office, gas & vehicle expense, etc.  Think about it and it makes perfect sense and I hope you understand my position why I don't ship items for free. Thanks for your time to read this and I look forward to doing business with you!
SHIPPING INFO:
We Ship Anywhere!
The item ships *Domestically (1 to 10 Patches or Postcards) for the MINIMUM First-Class PKG Package/Parcel Rate plus 75 cents handling. The item ships Internationally (1 to 5 Patches or Postcards) for the 2-Ounce rate plus .50 per order handling.
Combine with Auctions and other Listings and SAVE on Shipping with ONE - .50 Handling Charge for 1 to 100+ Items!
FOR COMBINED SHIPPING:
According to ebay's new purchase rules effective Spring 2013, if you wish to purchase multiple items, you WILL NEED to use the "Shopping Cart" system. Simply select the item(s) you want and "ADD" to the shopping cart. After selecting your items, you will then receive an automatically generated invoice from eBay showing the INCORRECT SHIPPING rate. Presently, the eBay "shipping calculator" system will calculate each item for the "gross" shipping rate. For example, if you purchase five (5) patches, the correct shipping rate should be for the 2-Ounce rate. However, the shipping calculator will send you an automatic invoice with shipping calculated for the 10-Ounce rate! You may pay using the incorrect shipping rate and I WILL REFUND you for the overpayment paid for shipping the items. OR, after your selection and prior to making payment, you can click the option to send me an email requesting combined shipping. Upon receipt or shortly thereafter, I will send you an invoice noting the correct or revised shipping rate - the 2-Ounce rate in above example. The stated handling charge in listing will be added to the shipping rate except for exceptions as noted on sales receipts.  I am sorry for any inconvenience or confusion using the shopping cart system may cause. If you purchase multiple items and pay for each individually, I WILL REFUND you for the overpayment paid for shipping the items at a combined S&H rate. This refund will be issued AFTER the shipping label is created and package is shipped. I usually ship the SAME day or NEXT DAY after payment. Thank you for your time to read above. Whit
WHAT IS A LMH POSTCARD?
LMH simply stands for Loco Motive Hobbies - my business name and ebay seller name - nothing more. I DO NOT manufacture or produce postcards or patches. I only purchase collections of them and then sell them as singles. I never know what I will be getting and it even surprises me sometimes! I start all my listings as LMH so that buyers can easily find my items online and by selecting "newly listed", buyers can see my most currently listed items. Thanks for reading and I look forward to doing business with you!
