Hi guys

Just started stamp collecting
I got a stamp book with some around 50 stamps for 10 euros on the flea market
Now I want to become more of a stamp collector, but its difficult because my dad finds it stupid and wont let me buy any stamps

Congratulations. Tell your dad you want to learn about all the worlds countries, geography, history and famous people etc. You'll find it all on stamps. He simply don't understand - as parents seldom do! (ps - I've got 4 children my self, and they keep telling me I don't understand....)

LabProfess - unless you change our email settings, no one can email you.

You have your SCF email account set to "no email"

I just sent an e-mail to you, labprofess with copy to myself and it seemed to go through so send me yours so I check for spare stamps for you !
Welcome to the Forum !

By the way, 50 stamps for 10 Euros seem pretty expensive

labprofess - I suggest you type down your address in this thread. Many are concerned to change email with strangers. However I believe most collectors would like to be good samaritans for a collector in need. With an address we would know where to send a little something to get you going.

Ok. I hope there are no stealers here or people coming to my house. If you do send me stuff please send a email or comment so I know. Im not to much about suprise mail because my dad throws it away if he dosent know from who it is so I got to tell him :P

***Staff - Posting Home addresses is not recommended. Removed for safety ***

If shipping is expensive I am sorry Blaamand (and others) I wish I could pay shipping but I cant because my dad knows what I buy ofc and he wont be happy if its stamps

No worries Laurent - most of us have sufficient stamps to make up the postage anyway
I'm currently at work offshore - will send something for you when I arrive home in another week or so.

Guys,
Its great that we are helping a new collector but having a young person/minor post his home address can be bad on several levels. (So I removed it.) Frankly I wouldn't recommend that anyone ever post their physical address online.

We also try to limit transactions with new members until everyone can get to know each other; but existing members can make the decision to contact new members if they wish.

I don't want to be the 'bad guy' here but safety comes first.
Don
