New Online News Source

Picking up on laswabbie's thread about Information Overload, and following his link to http://www.stampnewsnow.com/

I found this offer:



$9 isn't too bad for half a year. Has anyone subscribed yet?

Haven't, but considering it. I'm hoping they get the sample up before the 12/15 deadline.

Thanks for the link, Kirk.

Depending on the sample, it looks promising.

LASWABBIE & Others:

The deadline has been extended to 31 December

Also, they have posted a "Sampler" Issue online.

The sample issue seems to be mostly stories from Meekels, originally printed near the end of the Classic Era. So, it might be interesting for the historical information, but it might not be relevant to current events.

I'm curious --- if anyone here decides to subscribe, please let us know.

Did anyone ever subscribe to this?

Any feedback? Reviews?

Thanks a lot for the link
Very interesting.

Yes, it's very interesting. I used to subscribe to Linns online edition but it became too expensive and I didn't renew afterwards.

I'm looking at it now. From the preliminary observation of the sample November 2010 issue:

Pros:

1. Web interface is way better than the Linn's
2 You can download a PDF. A HUGE plus. That means you can take it offline.

Cons:

1. Not a lot of new issue discussion. Heck, I really didn't see any in the sample issue.
2. Since Amos doesn't own them, there are no Scott New Issue updates
3. Comes out monthly instead of weekly

Where do I find info on list of usps pictorial cancels that will be issued?
