I collect topically, which makes it possible to be a "completist" simply by defining the topical scope narrowly. Well, for stamps, anyway. Covers are something else. Even with a topical focus, the number seems infinite.

Being a completest is awful. Any hole in a stamp album will drive me crazy.

I've gone as far as removing pages from albums to make sure it's complete - especially easy with the "Steiner" pages!

Sdtom, one disadvantage is the strength of USD vs. CAD recently. More so on high cost items. Conversely, if you were selling Canada you may see strong prices especially to U.S. Buyers for the next few years at least. Good luck and happy hunting.

I get paid in RMB so the conversion rate is awesome for me buying Canadian stamps.

Sorry. RMB stands for Renmin Bi, or "the people's money". That's what the money in China is called. No difference between Yuan and RMB. Same thing.
