Stamp Community

I do recommend joining, It's alot of fun!

My father recently passed, and he was an avid
stamp collector. I was going over to the stamp
board for a while after he passed. I wanted to
learn and maybe get hooked on stamps myself.
However the board is so slow, it doesn't keep
my attention.

Even this board is borderline slow for what I
am used to in my hobby forums. I don't have the
patience for boards with only a couple posts per
day... (like the stamp forum)

The good news is that even as slow as that board
is, I have been bitten by the 'stamp bug'.
I don't think I'll ever be as interested as I
am in coins, cars, guns, etc... but I have
been enjoying myself cleaning up loose ends
and such in Dad's collection.

I have also discovered that stamps are
relatively cheap to collect. Therefore, even
though Dad has a great deal of neat and
expensive looking stuff, I will
probably never sell any of it because of
the sentimental value.

As a matter of fact, I have found myself
spending a bit here and there to add to
the collection.

First just_carl.. I do hope that kid does something useful with them... ratio I know exactly what you mean, I wait for hours for a reply, but if it's too slow, I just click the link back to here! Maybe you should just go on now and again.
