I've purchased stamps from both dealers in the past and I trust them. Both stamps looked similar in centering to the eye. I didn't get out a ruler. The stamp I won at auction came with a cert. Good, for a hard to find stamp. I don't do the snip th…

When you go to your menu, and click "purchases", is it there? Or if you were watching it, go to your watch page and look at "fifter by" and click on "closed listings" it might be there. edit to add, I just noticed this is almost three weeks old. I…

The risk of waiting for the sale is someone else my buy it. If he wanted to get the black friday sale price, he could have spun the wheel and took his chances.

I got junk mail for the USPS in the mail today. Conspiracy theorists believe making the post office fund their employees retirement years into the future was a gimmick to balance the US budget. Postal employees also have to pay into Social Securi…

That certificate is also thirty-four years old. Is there an expiration date ?

Why would you have a shopping cart full of items you don't intend on buying? That is pretty poor planning.

My biggest fear for when I'm gone, is my wife will sell my collection for what I said I paid for it.

I blew through my August budget three weeks ago.

Crap. I kind of like them. Now I have something else to spend my stamp budget on.

Dubble post sorry.

"Are you looking at being a part seller that is selling off duplication of your collection..." " I won't deal with the sellers that are just trying to sell some of their excess material..." As a collector I tried to sell some of my seconds on Ebay,…

I've been breaking up my plate and zip blocks and using the singles for postage.

Isn't the summer normally slow? I went to a show last weekend, it was slow.

When I was a kid, one of my delinquent friends put a snowball in a mailbox. We got in a lot of trouble. Back in the days when it was normal to be disciplined by some neighborhood lady, then disciplined a second time when she drug you home and told …

He does have some items at low prices. I've bought some of them, and I bid on one today. To good of a deal to past up. I stopped when when it appeared I was biding against a shill. The last time I bid one on of his auctions it looked like a shill w…
