As someone who lives in Thailand, I find it hard to buy individual canadian stamps.
I went to the Canada Post website and it cant be done! You can only buy things like souvenir sheets or in pack of 6.
I find it frustrated as its more expensive this way.
Am I the only one who experience that?

You have to purchase $25 of items anyways to get free shipping. Do you want to purchase $3 worth of stamps and pay $4.99 in shipping? Canada Post doesn't want to lose money shipping tiny orders which cost more to prepare and ship than the retail cost.

In my humble opinion, Canada Post's decision many years ago to stop selling individual stamps is one of the prime reasons that younger collectors stopped being collectors. They couldn't afford to buy a ten stamp "Permanent" booklet to get the single stamp they needed.

Perhaps you could post the individual stamp catalogue numbers and someone could sell and ship them to you Solves two problems. You get your singles and they dispose of their extras from their purchases of booklets, souvenir sheets, etc.
