LTC - Quisps
Board: LTC: Trades and Trackers
Jun 10, 2024 3:43pm
Some of the fun is trading LTC cards.
But if Quisps are considered small LTC's, do you trade those also?
I have been glueing/taping them in my log book and then realized that maybe they are made for trade like a traditional LTC?
What do other folks do with these little Quisps?

I actually got another binder that I put coin pocket sheets in and use those like I do the baseball card holders for "normal" size ltcs. I was in a quisps tracker and so I have mine sorted by boxer for those.
For those quisps that show up as a surprise in any other trade, I place them in their own pocket alongside the card that it came with.

Riggs, I donβt distinguish between my undersized LTCs and quisps. I call them a βquispβ only when I stick them under an address label. So, yes, I trade them!

I have been doing that too Riggs, taping them into my book. But sometimes I get a duplicate and I pass it along. I think I like the coin sized page idea -- that way would be easier to see who created the quisp. No additional notes needed. But I pretty much keep whatever I receive, not much trading going on. Maybe when I top 1k like some people have, I'll be more apt to thin out my collection. Right now I'm super enamoured with everyone's creations and can't imagine trading them π Thanks for all your excellent contributions!ππ

Thanks all. I never even heard of coin pocket sheets. I just ordered them from amazon. π
For the smaller LTC cards, (not quisps), I put two of them in the regular card sheets but I cant really enjoy them because they end up on top of each other. π³π‘
I started to stamp my quisps on 'avery blank labels (stickers)' and then place them in the envelope, this way the person, if they want, can just stick them in their log books without taping it. (all that taping can get bulky...)
Now i wait for my coin sheets...woo hoo!

I get "sheet" like the baseball card sheets with 2.1/4x2 1/4 pockets. There are 12 pockets on a sheet. They are made by Ultra.PRO
on the box the scan code has:
stock # l8l1423 411244

If I get them, I collect them!
I don't list my Quisps as LTCs, I list them as Other. To me they are not trading cards, they are more like Cooties or HitchHikers, a little gift.

Saving unpublished trackers
Board: LTC: Trades and Trackers
Jul 25, 2024 2:50pm
When I go to set up a tracker, I only see two choices, publish or cancel. Is there no option to save a tracker listing while you continue to work on it? I'm thinking the only way I can accomplish that is to publish it with "only me" for the "who can see" question. I could then continue to edit it, and when it is finished, change the "who can see" to everyone. Is this correct, or am I missing something?

No, I never added support for saving trackers to be published later. You'd just have to restrict the tracker if you wanted to make sure nobody else could see it until it's ready. (A whitelist restriction that has nobody in it would be an option.)

Plotting and planning for a large event and needing stamps ahead of time I could see where support for trackers as unpublished would be helpful (and keep me from losing all the lists I have on my desk.)

If you look under "My Page" you will "Trackers" click that and then look under Available for "LTCs" and you can see swaps that are open to join. :)

How do you go about trading LTC's if they are not listed in a group. I just like to carve stamps and make cards. I usually always make more than the "group" request in the hopes that I could do random trades but how do I list those and do others do random trades and if so how do you list yours?

Marjorieβs Potpourri is a monthly trade for whatever cards you want to send. You send 5 and you get 5 back.

I often just make and send no special reason "happy mail" to other boxers that I know also enjoy making/receiving LTCs.

But how do people "advertise" that they made a LTC just for trades or find people that want to trade. Or is this just a thing where you look through the new LTC's and send a AQ mail and ask?

You could just post here that you want to trade π seems like several years ago that happened more often than happens now. Im happy to trade with you.

I've seen new LTCs become available and just sent a quick note to the creator offering to trade. I've gotten lots of neat cards and sent out mine too. I'd be happy to trade with you too!ππ

So I think I want to do a tracker. Is there somewhere I can get information about this endeavor. I would like to know how I start it, what settings do I use, how many people is a good number? What time period do most people give and what other things do I need to take into consideration.

I've been thinking about wanting to get involved in LTCs (not necessarily hosting) and I'm trying to read as much as I can about it before I take the plunge. lol Just wanna make sure I understand all the expectations and etiquette around it. So if you want a newbie on your list, let me know! :)
