You may be a stamp collector if...you spend $250 dollars to attend a stamp show and purchase 42.50 worth of stamps and covers !!

Phil:

Next time I go to NYC for the show, I'll teach you how to spend the $200 you have allotted for the show... and get what you want! It's a tip I learned out of Linn's Stamp News.

You may be a stamp collector if: you haven't collected stamps in 20 years, and just by looking through a stamp forum you are once again "bitten" by the stamp "bug"!

As I'm relatively new to the site, I've enjoyed looking at some of the older posts. This one caught my eye and I can say with certainty: I am a stamp collector! Twice I sorted through 11,000 plus stamps. 95% were modern flag stamps! Unfortunately, I was not as well educated then (9 & 12 years ago) on the variety of perf variations. Hmm, now where did I put them ....

Ziggy9, No, that's obsessive compulsive.
But then again, if you are obsessive compulsive you may be a stamp collector.

You might be a stamp collector, if you have 1000's of mint stamps, but still must go to the post office to buy another stamp to mail your bills.

You may be a stamp collector if the only person you let seperate stamps is the postal clerk.

You may be a stamp collector if you go through the trash at the post office clipping envelope corners
