Seeing as I don't really care....... Have you tried the USA Postal Service or maybe Canada? :?: :wink: :twisted:

I'm sure you're familiar with the term 'Bite me!' vader?... ;)

Anyone have anything useful to add in response to my query? ;)

...and when last did you see a branch of the US or CAN postal service at your local shopping centre? ;)

...it's somewhat overkill to fly over there, buy some stamps and then return Home to mail them back. :)

:roll:

Nic interested in buying any stamps?

I have my dad's old collection that I want to part with, boxes of first edition US and UK stuff from the early 60's upwards. I have some guy from jhb looking at them next month, but shout if you're interested.

Hey Gary,

I'd be interesting in flogging all but some of my stamps too.

I thought it might be interesting (I was 13), and they've been in a box ever since.

I should probably get them checked out; I think I have some real beauties there, but Hell, I wouldn't know. *lol*

...I have just one I'd like to keep, a very special German one with a particular stamp on it. I could probably buy another bus just wth that one. ;)

I'm looking for current stamps for SASEs.

oooooooooooh k

I had a collector look at my dads stuff a while ago and offer R10 000 for the lot. An auction house reckons they're worth more and he's trying to rip me off...

Be careful when selling, some of this stuff is pretty pricey.

Yah, that what always worries me... :/

Best to get at least 3 different quotes I reckon...

Right, who wants a stamp for a bus? *grin*

I need a clone; I've had 'check out stamp' on my To-Do list for Um, a few years now... *lol*

...best I go look for those others too.

With the advent of e-mail, perhaps it's a good hobby to get into investment-wise. :)
