Hi everyone, I'm from Hong Kong and collects HK, China, Taiwan, Macau, Philippines, UK, Canada and US stamps, as well some coins and bills from these countries.

I used to collect phonecards, but not anymore...

Glad to be here and explore the fascinating world of stamps!

Hello HKStamps, welcome!

Any good sources over there for Macau kiloware? Or is that something to look in Portugal for? Or both?

Hi Puzzler,

Uhm... used Macau is very scarce, you might get more say pre-90s, but after 1990's a lot of volatility on Macau stamps, people are buying hoards of stamps as investment so you'll see most exist in mint condition rather than used. Also few people write... they would prefer calls instead. You can still get used, but not a lot...

Well, that's why we have a virtual community here - to share information. I have a standing order with Macau Post and the good thing is they use stamps as postage to me (unlike some countries that use "Postage Paid" cancellation). Also whenever I got the chance to visit Macau, I'll post a few postcards to my relatives as well as myself.
