Hi Jacob,

I am looking forward to swapping stamps with you and I will try my best to give you some nice used Australian stamps.

Jacob.

Always looking for new traders, even smaller amounts.

Hi Uncadonego,
Quiet happy to swap say 200 gb (mixture of Comm's/ Regional)
etc.

Let me know if there are any particular time periods you are after?

Cheers

Chris

uncadonego · **Posted:** Tue Feb 15, 2011 09:02:19 am

Well, Chris, given a choice I'd pick the older stuff, even though it will be the common stuff. Send me your address and I'll get on it right after Jacob's order. Looking forward to trading!

uncadonego · **Posted:** Wed Feb 16, 2011 06:36:15 am

Jacob & Chris Murphy, I have both of your orders filled. I'm just waiting on an e-mail from Chris for his address, and I'll take both to the post office to save one trip.

Jacob, I received brucerob9's Australian packet today, and it appears to be pretty comprehensive from 1966 to 2004. I'm happy if you send anything you have, but if you have some before and after that era it would be great. Don't sweat it if you don't though.

brucerob9, I was in the twilight zone when I opened your package today. You used the carboard backing frame I used to send your stamps. Until it clicked in, it was a bit freaky, like I didn't bury a body deep enough or something.

Nice packing job. Thanks for the organized selection!

Everybody check this out.

Now this is packing stamps! Each of these was neatly stapled to the carboard in two rows of five, one hundred each packet (it appears). And waterproofed? Oh yeah! I couldn't tear the plastic wrapped around it all, I had to cut it with scissors! Thanks for the nice stamp variety on the envelope too!

MORE traders always wanted and welcome!

uncadonego · **Posted:** Fri Feb 18, 2011 07:23:11 am

Jacob and Chris Murphy, I'm sorry I didn't post your packages yet.

It's your fault Jacob! :evil:

No, I just thought about trading with you, and how you are a new young collector, and decided to send you some additional free stuff, so I had to buy some more 6X9 envelopes because they wouldn't fit in a 4X6.

In addition to the 200 for trade, I'm also sending you 100 extra free Canada, 18 free of the more common Canada excise/revenue/wartax stamps, and 161 free U.S.A stamps. I'll try to post them for sure tomorrow.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Fri Feb 18, 2011 08:42:13 am

OK, I sent them out today, but the post doesn't go out until 2:15 P.M. tomorrow because I went in after that time today.

I overpayed for both of you 52¢ each to keep the wildlife souvenir sheet intact. Seemed stupid to break up a couple of sheets over a buck. I got the lady to hand cancel them, they look pretty decent.

Looking for more people to trade with, even if it's a small amount you can spare. What the heck, it gets you a nice cover at least.

brucerob9 · **Posted:** Fri Feb 18, 2011 19:53:43 pm

Hi Don,

Thanks for your kind comments on my packing and organising the 1,000 Australian stamps I sent you. In my dealings on ebay I have always taken the rule that sending of items in the condition that I would like to receive them. I will now apply to same to my Stampboard swaps. Hope you were able to use some of them and look forward to dealing with you again.

Regards
brucerob9/Australia

stillmanjb · **Posted:** Sat Feb 19, 2011 05:42:45 am

Hi Uncadonego,

I'd be interested in getting all the Canada you have to offer (~600 still?). Would you be interested in maybe 300-400 France (half or more post-2000) and 200-300 Spain?

Jeff

Hi Uncadonego,

Thanks for the update, can you email me your address.

I will dig out a minature sheet to put on your envelope.(like the word buck!)

Yes brucerob, I'm unpacking them one at a time and putting them in stock sheets, enjoying them all. I never noticed before the very low percentage of boring stamps Australia issues. Nineteen out of twenty are total winners. So many to scan for the various threads- ships, birds, sea life, stamps on stamps, etc. Beautiful and interesting stamps.

Sure thing stillmanjb, perhaps a tad more nowadays. I've recently bought some reasonably priced off paper, and am gradually soaking over a pound of more modern on paper I got quite low in auction, and I am also awaiting an upcoming auction to see if I succesfully bid on more. If 600 is as high as you can go though, that's fine too. I'll start sorting for you as soon as I can. Go ahead and e-mail me your mailing address.

Sin, received your Singapore stamps today in good shape! Just looking inside the plastic envelope, right off the top I can see two scans for stamps on stamps thread, one for cats thread, one for butterflies thread, one for birds of a feather thread, one for sailing ships thread, one for odd shapes thread, one for this thread really bugs me thread, one for sea life thread.....and I haven't even opened it yet! :lol:

Looks like lots of fun in there!

Thanks!

I can certainly go higher if you don't mind me throwing another country in there! I'd be especially keen on the more recent ones. I'll start putting together a group and let you know what I come up with. If you can let me know how many I should be shooting for....

Jeff

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sat Feb 19, 2011 14:06:49 pm

stillmanjb, in order to come up with about 600 or more, I have to go through the entire history of Canada stamps, starting at about Scott #75 running into the 21st century.

Good to hear that the stamps arrived safely. I am having fun sorting out the Canada stamps you send.

rsa, 100 more on the way as requested. I used the new single souvenir sheet from "Year of the Rabbit". It was too big so it's on the reverse. It's OK though, I put and envelope within the envelope, there's a fat side and a skinny side. If you tap down the fat side, then just cut the least edge off the other side, the worst you will hit is another envelope. You can save the envelope that way, or the whole souvenir sheet will be unharmed for soaking.

Hi,
Thanks, I got the stamps sent by you on 9/2/11, by Sat.
19/11/11 with the Year of Rabbit Souvenir sheet neatly packed. I received bonus stamps too. Very kind of you.
Almost 90% are new to my collection. I am today despatching 100 stamps against this.

Further, I need 100 more stamps. The last scott Number
received upto 513.

Regards,
rsa

uncadonego · **Posted:** Tue Feb 22, 2011 12:31:28 pm

rsa, ok, but it's going to take at least a couple of days before I finish stillmanjb's order. You're next though.....

uncadonego · **Posted:** Tue Feb 22, 2011 14:34:28 pm

oh I almost forgot, rsa, you're actually third in line. I forgot about annwiggy on another thread. Probably early next week.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Wed Feb 23, 2011 13:35:47 pm

stillmanjb, I have 680 Canada stamps put aside for you, but if you want to wait a bit I may get that number up a bit more. I'm in the process of soaking and drying a full pound of close-cut more modern stuff. Do you want me to send you the 680 or just hold off a while until I get through this more modern postage?

ConnieB · **Posted:** Wed Feb 23, 2011 17:53:43 pm

I'm interested in another batch of 200 stamps if you don't mind receiving mostly older US stamps.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Wed Feb 23, 2011 18:37:54 pm

Hi Connie,

Could you please let me know the last Scott number I sent you? I don't want to send you duplicates.

ConnieB · **Posted:** Wed Feb 23, 2011 18:51:32 pm

The last Scott number was 503, I believe. I look forward to our swap.

Uncadonego, I'll wait for the more modern stuff. I've fallen behind in sorting the stamps for you, anyway. I'll probably have to include one or two more countries in my portion of the trade to get the numbers that high, if that's ok with you.

Jeff

uncadonego · **Posted:** Wed Feb 23, 2011 23:41:52 pm

Sure, no problem. U.S. plus bits of others is fine.

Even adding on the more modern stuff will probably only get it around 700 or 725, since there is so much duplication in soaker lots.

stillmanjb · **Posted:** Thu Feb 24, 2011 00:12:50 am

Ok, that sounds good. I'll probably send around 250 Spain, 250-300 France, and the remainder Germany, if that's ok. If you prefer US, I could probably do around 600-700 of them.

Jeff

uncadonego · **Posted:** Thu Feb 24, 2011 04:03:26 am

U.S. is tricky, because I have multiples of dozens to hundreds of the 50's,60's,&70's era, about 350 different. Earlier or more modern would be good though.

Wait until you actually receive my packet, then mix whatever you think, and if I already have some of what you send I'll just try to recycle that part.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Thu Feb 24, 2011 04:09:51 am

Oh, I forgot to ask. Connie, do you remember what franking I used on your last package? I want to send different stamps second time around.

stillmanjb · **Posted:** Thu Feb 24, 2011 04:13:09 am

Ok, that sounds good. I'll most likely stick with an international assortment that will be more interesting than what I would provide from the US.

ConnieB · **Posted:** Thu Feb 24, 2011 05:06:15 am

I'm sorry. The cover stamps were lovely, so I clipped them and they're somewhere in a large pile I need to soak.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Thu Feb 24, 2011 14:36:51 pm

Ok, Connie, no problem, I'll just try to use stamps that have been released since I sent your last packet so I know they are different.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Fri Feb 25, 2011 16:50:58 pm

adivaragan, YEA! I finally got your first envelope today! India takes a while.....

Anyway, just looking through the batch with my magnifying glass now. Some scans for the trains thread, the horse-drawn thread, the flight thread, the bugs thread, the birds thread, just at first glance.

Thanks again, and looking forward to your next package!

uncadonego · **Posted:** Wed Mar 02, 2011 13:26:03 pm

stillmanjb, just so you know, it's 710. I could keep going, but it's sputtering out into far spaced definitives only, so I stopped. When I have a commemorative, it's usually only one or two in the upper thousand catalogue numbers. I'm still actively working on increasing the accumulation up there though, so maybe in the future.

I'm holding off sending them until I get Connie's and Adivaragan's and annwiggy's orders filled some time this week, plus get Chris' Fergie Jenkins packet packaged. When I send several orders at once internationally, I save paying an extra 13% HST on the stamps.

Everyone's orders will probably be mailed out by this Friday.

I overpayed for most of you to keep sheets intact, hand cancelled, blablablab.......etc.

Pleased to say your package has arrived, thank you, yours left about four
days ago.

Cheers

uncadonego · **Posted:** Fri Mar 04, 2011 16:00:47 pm

They left in the truck on the 19th of February. Thirteen days, I guess that's not too bad. I'm guessing mine will arrive on the 11th then. Any wagers? :mrgreen:

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sun Mar 06, 2011 23:36:44 pm

Got a couple lbs. of more modern to soak and sift through, might enhance future packets.

QUESTION: Am I going to the trouble of neatly hand cancelling for nothing? One certain dealer today told me that they run it all through the machine canceller anyway..

How did the cancellations arrive to those of you who've received packages from me? Hand cancelled only, or machine cancelled over top of it anyway?

ConnieB · **Posted:** Thu Mar 10, 2011 10:29:57 am

Thanks for the great batch of Canadian stamps. The envelope came hand canceled with lovely stamps on the cover. The extras were a nice surprise.

Your batch of stamps are on their way.

Thanks again.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Thu Mar 10, 2011 14:28:33 pm

Oh good, I'm glad they aren't getting machine cancelled on top of the hand cancellation.

Look forward to your stamps in the mail.

Chris, I got your GB/Eire stamps. Thanks for the soakers as well.

No one has offered any trades for a while.....starting to get the DT's.... :shock:
