    UK in general is also not bad. I have listed over 700 rppcs from the UK and England in the past few months and sold over 100 of them already.

    I always liked foreign RPPCs and hand tinted cards

    I really enjoyed watching your video and the link to presentation on Japanese postcards. I picked up a lot of postcards and there were about 50 postcards from Japan, China, and Korea. It’s been difficult researching them. This helped!! Looking forward to the other videos you make! 🙏

    This was so great. I love seeing international postcards some love. Would love more deep dive videos about postcard collecting topics. I just love learning about that. I also would love to know more about how you handle international shipping as a reseller (advice and tips)?

    It's funny you posted this video now Dan. (LOL) I just picked up about 21 foreign postcards at a thrift store here in my town. Since I now ship international, I'll be listing those in my store real soon. Great video as always my friend.

    Also, being Canadian as I've said before RPPCS make up a fraction of the sales I get on Canadian cards. However, I sell uncommon Chrome cards for 40-100 dollars, a few higher but those are rare. RPPCs now, you are on the money when it comes to the ranges you gave. They range from bread and button to the 300ish range, with some rare exceptions where they go beyond that.

    Your postcard from Peru was sent to a town where I used to work, St. Helena CA. It’s a wealthy little borough in wine country. I was hoping for a historically significant addressee, but the Noble surname does not ring familiar. Still pretty cool.

    Yes! I was exactly thinking about this the other day, that there is almost no information about foreign postcards and it is a very overlooked area. I live in Europe and I see many undivided back postcards of those countries floating around! Thank you for doing this video!

    I like the long form videos for while I'm working.... maybe a video on how to list postcards faster like do you use templates do you batch them like do a bunch of Linens at the same time, most of us know about the scanner that takes care of pictures quickly but it's the data entry part that sucks, maybe your experience with a virtual assistant have you ever tried that? I think I heard you mentioned it in a video one time, pros and cons video Maybe

    I just paused the video to comment. You just showed a Kirchaich, Germany postcard. That is the town that my father's great grandfather is from before he came to America. I was able to visit that town. It is a very small town and doesn't show up on all maps, which would make sense why that would be a valuable post card.

    Dan, I was born in Japan and lived in Tokyo with my Japanese mom and American dad until age 7. All of your videos are great but this one was of extra interest for me. Thank you! I have an antique unposted post card from Japan, printed on sepia colored paper showing a war-torn Nagasaki street. Also have a lot of WWI era German postcards. They have been slow movers for me.

    I'm new to postcard resale in general and have definitely found some interesting foreign postcards in the first couple batches I've come across, particularly Japan (Korakuen baseball stadium, Haneda Airport with old Pan Am plane) and Sweden (lutefisk drying racks). Nothing crazy expensive but definitely neat. Thanks for the great insight!

    From Wikipedia and one of the reasons postcards from the Phillipines are of a lot of interest in the US. /// The Philippines was a U.S. territory from 1898 until July 4, 19461234. Sovereignty passed from Spain to the United States in the 1898 Treaty of Paris1. The Insular Government of the Philippine Islands was established in 1902 and was reorganized in 1935 in preparation for later independence2. The Philippines became an autonomous commonwealth in 1935, and the U.S. granted independence in 1946 //// Great video Daniel--I would like to see on my wish list Italy, Poland and Slovenia as countries for a future video.

    How about an Isle of man or Great Britain overview. As a postcard and stamp collector I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for the hard work. Some of my favorite postcards and postal history was sent from early missionaries. I passed on an early postcard from the Ivory Coast 6-7years ago at a stamp show. I would not pass on that again.

    Google Translate works alright with some languages but with Asian languages and characters (especially Chinese and Japanese) it has a hard time deciphering the text correctly.

    Great video! How do you ship internationally? Do you just use ebay's international shipping program? I think it may be expensive for a single postcard. Thanks!

    Kinda basic question. Do you just grab a handful of random cards and scan / list them or do you take a specific group (linen, etc.) And scan / list until you are done with all ofthem? I'm acquiring 2-3k of cards, all types, and wanted to get an idea of the best way to get them listed. Of course eventually all will be listed.

    I bought a bunch of military group photo post cards from France. Unfortunately this seller uses paper thin envelopes and my envelope was empty. That ended my amazing French collection in one swoop.
