Does anyone have any experience with these CD's of printable pages for stamp albums? They would work great as I could pick and choose the countries I want, but I want to know if they are detailed and accurate before I buy them. My sister runs a print shop, so I can get high quality paper printed with archival ink quite cheap. Any comments? Link to Ireland pages, but this seller has pretty much every country. http://www.ebay.com/itm/110820784816

Mystic I would check out the Steiner pages at www.stampalbums.com. It costs $30.00 for a yearly subscription and you can print all the countries you want. Dianne    |

This guy is probably reselling Steiner's pages anyway. Just go right to the source and avoid these scammers. |

I own the German pages from this seller. They're thorough enough for a fairly specialized collection. |

I asked the seller from the OP to send me a sample page as a PDF. We'll see how it compares to Steiner's stuff. |

The guy just sent me his Ireland "sample pages." They are, in fact, Bill Steiner pages. I sent an email off to Bill Steiner with the sample pages and the auction and seller ID. |

Don't know anything about the pages, but I did note that they are formatted for A4 paper. That might be an issue for someone outside of Europe (if you resize them for printing on 8.5 x 11 paper, they box size foe each stamp would likely change, too). Chip |

Are there any pages out there with the stamp images on them? I am using the Unity albums for my Canadian collection, and I love having the images as a reference. |

I don't know of any printable pages with images. The images are usually copyrighted by the postal service of the country in question. |

OK, so the Steiner ones look like the way to go. Anyone have any suggestions for premade or custom binders to put them in? I can get some nice binders made any way that I want by my sister, but they have to be made in multiples of 25. |

He might have a "license" from Bill Steiner to offer and print the pages in A4 size. These would interest mostly European collectors that use A4 size paper. I notice that he offers a lot of countries and appears to be doing a brisk business on e-bay. If on the other hand he does not have "permission"...then  |

Well, that's up to Steiner to decide. I paid my $30 to Bill and he does good work. I don't want to see his hard work give money to someone else without Bill getting a piece of it. |
