Are there any dealers either in the UK or US that offer Gibbons products at a discount? I have not had luck finding any. Vera Trinder comes to mind but they will not answer inquiries. Probably they prefer not to deal with non UK buyers.

Any suggestions welcome.

I think that others may have problems in getting hold of SG products. And VT (now Prinz) is a little chaotic itself. This place has some SG material, but not as much as in the past

AS GeoffHa mentions, Vera Trinder was the trading name of Vera Webster. She died recently and had sold her business in 2006 to Prinz Publications.

Thanks for the link to Dauwalders. Doesn't look as if they have what I am looking for- Windsor Sovereign albums, blank pages etc. Looks like it's back to SG online and hope my stuff isn't mangled by poor packing or that they don't try to stick me with bad product.

They did a reasonable range of SG stuff, but seem to have cut back - possibly because of supply issues. Some items on their ebay shop

No Windsor Sovereigns, though; just Windsor Elites.

They are the US distributor for Gibbons. Has anyone asked for the Sovereigns? Maybe special order.

One simple dealer.
Your Local Library
Pop in, put your name down for the old catalogues when they upgrade.
I pay around $30 for a complete set.
Good Luck.

Gibbons catalogs are not as a rule available in US libraries. I don't think I have ever seen one. Your suggestion is good for Scott catalogs- I have never bought one at full price, usually get a year old one on ebay.

I have had excellent service from Gibbons. And with the current exchange rate, everything is on sale

You can try Book Depository at the below link as they ship free worldwide. I have bought a number of catalogs from them to save money, especially shipping fees.
