"Traders may ask for an extra for additional postage if it is a stamp/GC trade".

I don't understand this. Could it please be explained?

Say the trader sends you $100 in coupons and you send them stamps or a GC

You use 1 stamp to mail but they use 2-3, therefore the cost of mailing is coming out of the trade rate so some ask for an additional stamp

Excellent thread. Thank you.

That makes sense. TY.

I generally trade coupons for coupons and do necessarily like to ask for or to be asked for stamps as we are both mailing at a cost of stamps
if i have a bunch of coupons someone wants and they don't have the coupons I need or vice versa stamps are always a welcome trade as we all use them but I don't like to pay for my coupons per say

I would like to see a discussion on traditional trains keeping the weight between 30-50g and allowing the removal of one or two to bring the cost down to 50g as it is a big jump from 1.20 - 1.85
jam packing the envie with doubles of garbage and having to pay an obscene amount for nothing out nothing in is a waste of my time and money
mind you I won''t be riding any that do not consider this in the first place

I haven't ridden a train in forever. I remember when we didn't have boarding passes or the ones with boarding passes were HV. Then people started putting junk in them so there was a need to put boarding passes on regular trains. It's too bad that a few spoiled it for everyone.
