Frequently Asked Questions

How late is 2 to 6 weeks?

Late enough that the immediate period has passed. Not so late that the occasion is no longer recognizable. We have found this window to be the most useful. Earlier and the card is just a late card. Later and the recipient may not remember what you're referencing.

Can I request a specific delivery date?

No. We determine delivery timing. This is the service.

What do the cards say?

Each card type has its own message. The messages are warm, specific to the occasion type, and honest about the lateness. None of them apologize for the lateness. The lateness is a philosophy.

Can I include a personal note?

Yes. You can include a personal message in addition to the printed card message. The personal message is handwritten. This takes additional time. The card still arrives late.

Has anyone ever been upset to receive a late card?

Three people have contacted us to say they found the late card confusing. Many more have contacted us to say it arrived at exactly the right moment, which is to say: late.
