Well, it has been two weeks now and I have barely scratched the surface. Lots of good stuff, lots of interesting stuff and lots of fun. A long, long way to go but I am already contemplating some lots at the upcoming Sparks, Cherrystone and Spink auctions. I have never had so much fun and the time flies by exploring. I will post some finds soon when I come up for air.

I'm a bit jealous, Rogdcam. I have been taking the opposite approach (from many of the same sources), and buying 1 or 2 stamps every 2-3 months. How much more fun and entertainment with your approach! You can only stare at your single stamp purchase for so long....

Still working on that huge 17 carton box lot I purchased at auction . Things have quiet down to a small group each day .No longer filling the trash dumpster with binders,loose pages and the thousands of plastic baggies and envelopes .

Taken three cartons of stuff to Goodwill. It was all low value stuff that would take months to sell. Just didn't want it around the house ,the shipping cost to ship was equal to the value ,so the quicker it is out of the house the happier the wife is .

Made up a whole group of country collections for my friend to sell on ebay . The British Colonies sold quick and South American doesn't stay long on ebay . Happy with the boxes that I kept ,have many months of fun in front of me .

If I purchased a 17 carton lot, my wife would find a temporary place to put me.




It's a fine line we walk eh?
