What's The Best Way To Keep A Record Of What You Own?

fgski: welcome to the Forum. I suspect you will enjoy your visits here.

Meaning no disrespect to anyone, I want to spend my time collecting stamps, not entering data onto spreadsheets or fumbling around with Word documents. I understand that record keeping can be difficult for world wide collectors, which I used to be.

Nowadays, it's really easy to thumb through an album in one of my specialty areas; and compile a want list of needs before I attend a show; or write to a dealer. I keep some country lists in a notebook, but only for compiling catalog value.

That's HUGE!

Yeah, and it's only going to keep growing.

My answer to the question at hand: "A LOT of spare time and a large computer memory spcae."

PoSta4evr, that pretty much sums it up. I've been adding to this database for almost a decade now...
