I just looked at last year's results. I received 236 QSL cards via eQSL.cc. This is about twice as many as I received via paper qsl cards (190-ish) and way...way...more than I received via LOTW (38). I must admit that I had never heard of eQSL.cc until I received an email in mid DXpedition, announcing that I had received an eQSL card. I quickly discovered that my logging software had a feature for posting contacts, directly to the eQSL site...sweet....Once I spent some time with eQSL, I realized that it was much more user friendly than LOTW.
If you want a paper qsl card (they are quite attactive and may someday be a collectors item, please see above) and are a US Ham, send me an SASE and I will send you a card. If you are a non-US ham send me a self addressed return envelope and $2.00 US. Given my honest nature, you will probably get a card in return.
If you send me a card directly without SASE or $2.00, it will sit on my desk for a while, I will poke at it...and at some point in the future, if the cat doesn't eat it, I might send a reply via the bureau. If you send me a card via the bureau, once I have accumulated 15-20 cards, I will send you one back the same way.
