So My Mystic Heirloom Stamp Album Came In The Mail Today...

I have White Ace through 1974. It got where I just could not justify the outlay for supplements - too pricey. So remainder is in Vario/G&H pages. For items which won't fit my 8-1/2 x 11 album, I have 2 large sheet G&H binders. I have a digital image of those items which I have referenced and printed on 8-1/2 x 11 and inserted into my stamp binder at the appropriate place.

That's a good way to go. I might do that.

I got a letter for mystic today the refunded my money for the hingeless album.. I didn't ask for a refund...
I called them and they said it would still be 6 to 8 weeks before the new album was ready.

They had sent me a $100.00 US credit voucher.. I asked if that was still good. They said yes, so I will save it until the new album is out then use it to buy the album... so it ends up almost free, except for shipping.
That is a good deal.


To update this post. I got the set of hingeless pages in the mail finally, they are incredible and very nicely done. They fit in any 3 ring binder, so tomorrow I will go to the office supply store and find some nice padded fancy binders.

Use for a down-payment on that Z-Grill

I just got the Mystic Heirloom albums @ 2 wks ago, advertised price on a "flyer" was $35.95 and when I ordered it online it came to $39.95. so I called them on the next business day and they credited me the difference.
when I got the albums, all was good, but to my surprise I also got 200 cancled US stamps and a 1000 hinges for $35.95

I've got nothing else to compare them too, so for my taste, I'am 100% satisfied...

I'm in the process of hacking some pages in the album to fix some se-tenant issues. Still think the album is an excellent value overall.

The Heirloom is a very nice album but I'm lacking all the supplements from 2005 and up. Is there anyway to get those without having to go through Mystic? I just don't want all the propaganda and approvals that are bound to start after I buy the supplements.

Or is the a comparable set of pages from 2005 up that will fit in a standard 3 ring binder?

thanks

Mike33 - you can go to http://www.stampalbums.com/free_us.asp and download for free the printable Stein album pages.

The Stein pages don't have the album page descriptions that the Mystic does.

I haven't paid any attention to this thread. My bad.

I bought the Hierloom albums in 2009. I don't actively collect anything beyond 1999. This left Volume 3 empty. I spread the pages I use among the three binders and stored the volume 3 pages.

Sooo, I have pages 887 - 1202 unused (2000 through 2008) collecting dust. If anyone wants them (or parts thereof) for actual postage, PM me.


Thanks,
Dan

Dan, It wouldn't let me send a PM cause I'm a new member. I'm definitely interested in your 2005-2008 pages but guess I'll have to wait till I post more around here. Hope you wouldn't mind holding them for me until then - thanks

Mike,
I didn't notice you weren't a "50-er" yet. Sure, I'll hold them for you.

Dan

Thanks Dan - I should be at the 14 point day this weekend I think and should have 12 more posts by that time too. I'll send you a message when I'm allowed to

Dan came though big time. Thanks Dan!

Now I'm updated through 2008. Guess I'll eventually have to bite the bullet and call Mystic for the rest.

I contacted Mystic to see if they would sell the volumes separately. I only want volume 1 to house the 1847 to 1900 issues. They informed me they only sell full sets, so I continue to look for an album to house these.
