The American First Day Cover Society (AFDCS) is a volunteer non-profit and non-commerical organization serving the needs of First Day Cover collectors, cachetmakers, and dealers. Founded in 1955, the society has a membership of nearly 2,000 active first day cover collectors, including hundreds of collectors who design and manufacture their own cacheted FDCs.
The owner of Dragon Cards (Lloyd A. de Vries) is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the AFDCS. (Funny how that works, isn't it?)
Here's how the Dragon Cards membership drive works:
Join the AFDCS using this application form or otherwise specifying "Lloyd A. de Vries" as the sponsor. (Paper applications are fine, too.)
Place your order, and let me know that you've applied for membership in the AFDCS.
If ordering using PayPal, I'll refund amount of the discount. If ordering using a check or money order, deduct it yourself, as follows:
All items from this website, take a 33% discount.
All items from other sites (eBay, StampWants, Delcampe, Stamps2Go), take a 25% discount.
This discount is good only for one order, but as many items in that order as you want. So load up on that first order!
The discount does not apply to shipping and handling charges, sales tax, or bribes paid to the proprietor.
Only one discount offer per order (not that I have any other discount offers floating around right now).
This offer ends December 31, 2009, but may be canceled sooner. Or it may be extended
