Hello Everyone,
How do you go about buying new stamps from foreign countries? Is it a case of finding the national delivery service and buying them directly? That raises the problem of translating a different language. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
All good things, Kevin

Hello. If you're prepared to wait a few months, countries also offer year books, and some dealers - eg Nordfrim - offer year sets. |

Buying from foreign postal administrations varies from easy to impossibly depending in the country you are interested in. |

Bombay Philatelic also sells new issues. Does the UK have a new issues dealer? |

Interesting how some stamp companies tend to locate in the same city. Herrick and Kent are both located in Hewlett,NY. A couple of similar, but not like the previously mentioned type stamp companies, reside near each other in Flushing,NY. No importance. Just an observation. |

No that is Jian Yuan not Ji Sun. But three years ago I had found a page such as the above stating Ji Sun was the Owner and Jian Yuan the Principal of CKStamps. I have not been able to find that 2017 page and did not save the link. |
