[CQ-Contest] QSLing

[Dan Violette]

Hank, Agree.  You originally said “One-hundred cards take about forty-five minutes of my time. For something
like $100,”  I see you meant one-thousand.  That makes sense, just did not want the first questioner to think prices that high.  I buy my credit in groups of 100 and about 0.13 each and usually process only 10-30 at a time (also a nice feature to be able to do any amount whenever) and takes longer to export the ADIF out of my logging program than to order the cards to be sent..  Even cheaper by the thousand.

 

Thanks.  I have really enjoyed using the service since I was led to it a few years ago.  Dan KI6X

Not my experience. Just checked my most recent purchase.

It was $106 for 1000 QSLs--printing (2-sided, photo), addressing, and distribution to buros. 

73,

There are alternatives for outgoing buro QSLs.

I use http://globalqsl.com/ . I do about 1000 outgoing cards per year.
One-hundred cards take about forty-five minutes of my time. For something
like $100, Global takes care of printing, filling-out, and sending to the
buros. A real time saver and a real bargain.

Contest Exuberantly,

Hank, W6SX
