I Didn't Know You Could Sing
No David, I cant sing, but this is what I did...
I arrived at the show, as soon as it opened. I went right to this one dealer who I know, and who has plenty of Peoples Rep. of China.
I also know that this show is attended by the Chinese stamp community
living in Queen New York.
I notice that the dealer, Larry, has complete sets, 1991 to 1994, Peoples Republic, in duplicate.
I purchase 18 complete sets, in duplicate, for twenty bucks.
I put my 18 sets, into my satchel, and put a rubber band, around the second 18 sets, in 102 cards.
I go out for a smoke, and return to the hotels lobby and sit on one of the reading sofas occupied by two Chinese collectors.
We start to talk, and they tell me they collect, China, Formosa, Peoples rep. and Taiwan.
I say Hey, I'm looking to unload these mint never hinged stamps.
One says to me I will give you 25 bucks for them... I say nah.. you look like a nice guy, give me twenty bucks

Now you know why,
"I don't sell stamps to friends "
