Trust no one!


Strange philatelic world... to collect or not to collect!


In my opinion I believe that philately is lost... or at least starting to slowly die... we are living a time were day by day more and more philatelic authorities are issuing stamps only with the purpose of gathering money!

The topics are picked only with the purpose to be appellative for collectors and not to be used to stamp letters... what a disgrace!


Sometimes the face values are very high and not suitable for common letters but only for very big packages... and I ask... who uses stamps on big packages?


Other times we don't even know if the name of the country on the stamps have actually issued them or if they are cinderella issues...

Trust no one!
