There are so many very positive people in stamping.

Buyers on ebay with many feedbacks and having a 100% score have got their reputation from being as honest as possible, over a long time frame and from many sales.

99% of stamping people are very honest and positive people.

It is so nice to think of stamping as a great hobby and all of us are the Kings & Queens of stamping.

Stamping is a great place to hide in a very confused world.

Always Happy Stamping.

I concur there are many good people in the hobby. Am I understanding your post to say that you feel 99% of all online listings are legitimate? Do you have ay empirical data or sources to back this up (because I have not been able to find much at all to better understand the scope of the issue)?

Even if we use the 1%, that is still a very large number at the end of the day. For example, we know that ebay Global sales, excluding autos, totaled $18.3 billion last year. So just 1% comes out to a bit over $500k per day.

Look to the positive and honest people, that are who stamping is all about.

Look to see if sellers have a good reliable background in a positive and honest way.

Seller who have a history like on ebay that can be seen if they are positive and honest sellers by their feedback comments and feedback score that reflects who they are as stampers.

If you look for these signs of having positive and honest traits in stamping people we should not have to live in fear when being an active stamper!
