We believe in offering a straightforward and fair pricing model for everyone. Our 10 euro flat fee allows us to provide beautiful, high-quality postcards to customers all over the world. This pricing is designed to be fair and consistent, ensuring everyone pays the same amount regardless of location. The fee covers not just the production of these premium postcards, but also the costs of shipping, handling, and storage. We’ve set this price to ensure that we can deliver a meaningful souvenir without compromising on quality or global accessibility.
Since shipping costs can vary greatly depending on your location and the shipping company you choose, we ask that customers cover the cost of sending their postcard to us.
