a visit to a stampadik





The rise, and rise, of the online shopping industry has provided an integral factor to shoppers:
the range of options.

There are so many websites on the horizon selling the same products and services,
ensuring a fair competition in terms of both services and price tags.
The same is true for those interested to buy Philippines stamps.
The presence of a considerable number of online stamp dealers makes it possible for
the discerning buyer and stamp connoisseur to look at several options before making
the right decision.

The older the seller ensure reliability. It is quite easy to fool people in the online

shopping category because people are not getting to touch or check out the
advertised products.

I am lucky to have met William (Pogi) Chua (( http://www.pogiforlife.com/ ))
from the fb stamp group for 2 months we (me and my friend Edwin ) have shifted
from purchasing through Mylene of PHILPOST, to going to the ends of Kennedy St.
to look for our friend and stamp dealer William.

He loved pets, his dogs, his comics, his cats, his love affair with stamps, that soon
over time have become an income generating machine selling to his peers and
co workers.

he soon realized that this was an interesting pastime, being retired, and maybe
could even be turned into a serious business.




Once you have established the stamp dealer you want to do business with, it is time
to look at another range of options. This time, it is about the different kinds of
Filipinas stamps and early postcards belonging to the Philippine subcontinent. The
options  in this field ranges from price tags, condition of the stamps and the different
historical eras. newbie philatelist may favor a particular period of history and be
interested in paying a few extra pesos(es) to acquire stamps and maxi cards, postcards
of that time(era). They may also choose to hold out on buying a stamp for a later period
and settle for something less expensive for the time frame. (like getting into die cast toys,
or carmod- setting up your own car).

With this experience   I'll be able to give you and objective opinion about what to expect from
an Internet stamp dealer.


1. buy only what you need to collect:  stamps are imposible to complete. you may
complete a series,but you cannot buy the whole stamps issued by a country over a
period of time.

2. concentrate on collecting high value stamps : rare stamps, if possible. rare stamps
only, stamps with errors are always of high value anytime of the day.

3. stamps are investments, better than any bank account. and easy to carry too.
