Hello fellow collectors.......
I am offering FREE stamps to any collector in mylot. All I ask is that you send me a request for them by regular mail with good condition new stamps on your envelope. I am trying to collect a new cover/envelope from as many countries as possible. Just send me an email(PM) and I will give you my address.
The FREE items will be a mixture of 100+ mint and used world wide, US or a combination of both.......whichever you prefer.
Can you tell me a better way to get stamps for your collection?

Folks, this guy ROCKS! I have sent him three covers now and every round of mailings I send him he always makes a GREAT show! I mean, I feel bad on this last one like I am taking advantage of him or something. He sent me a super group of stamps! The postage on the envelope of the stamps he sent to me was three eight cent stamps from the late 1950s & 1960, Champion of liberty series! None of which I seem to have in my album but I can't mount them as he has me collecting covers now too! The rest of the postage was the six and nine cent stamps from the 1938 presidential series! I hope he doesn't send all his mail with postage like this. I mean, seventy year old stamps to pay for the postage! Talk about making an impression!

As for what was inside his mailing. I can only think of one word to describe what I got. "AWESOME"! If you collect stamps you really should take nrnotrare up on this offer. I can not imagine anyone would be disappointed!


myLot reputation of 71/100. RealIolo (756)   ranked 4 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Here is a picture of some of the postage Tom has used to send me stuff. Keep in mind that what was inside was better then what he used to mail the stuff to me!

Best picture seen here:http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o91/RealIolo/Im000085.jpg

Thanks again Tom.

Hello RealIlo.......

Real glad to see the covers have been getting to you with decent cancels. Too often covers have pen or marker cancels.

Happy collecting......

I don't collect stamps but was perusing your discussions and saw this and needed to comment. What a kind thing you are doing. I know that it probably increases you own collection with new stamps but it really makes my day to see that kind souls are still around. Thanks for the smile.

Hello ycswid.......

Never in my wildest dreams did I consider someone leaving a comment like this. Just unbelievable. Talk about kind souls.......

Thank you.

I will send you the stamps on the envelope as you wish send me your e-mail address to lilyruth I guess you can send it by message so do it as soon as you can and I prefer some realold ones like the nine cent stamp from the 1920 or 30s and 6 cents from those years also and Save them for me I will get to you I hope also you will mail me some stamps you feel or very special and very old and rare for you seem to know all about the stamp collections. I did not know if they were used they were of value? anyway send me a message and thanks for being so kind, You are a very special person, bye for now lilyruth


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello lilyruth....

I am pleased to have you respond to my discussion and my offer of free stamps. I have sent a request for you to add me to your friends list so that I can send you my address.

I am in the process of creating a new type of collection. The basic idea is to acquire items of mail from all the countries involved with mylot and something from all of my mylot friends.

Would you be interested in something similar for yourself?

You must still be quite young, I don't consider items from the 1930's to be very old. Maybe it's just because they were very common items when I first started collecting.


All of the most expensive stamps in the world are used stamps. The one with the highest value is a used US stamp valued at more than three million dollars!!!

There are many stamps that are worth more used than mint. Newer items available at the post office now are extremely difficult to find used on cover/envelope as they were meant to be used, still in good condition. In the not too distant future collectors will be very interested in locating these items for their collections. Not everything will be worth a lot but the small amount of material being saved will create a shortage which will limit what is available for collectors.

I do not know everything there is to know about stamps or the hobby in general. I have been collecting a little more than 48 years and in that time I have acquired enough knowledge to know that I don't know enough. There are still plenty of things for me to learn.

Happy collecting.....

Tom

how is that possible. can i too have some


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello sikkim......

It is possible because I am determined to help my fellow collectors. It helps me with my life long battle with depression, and I get to add a few things to my collection. I have sent an email to you with my address.

Happy collecting......

Tom


sikkim (82)  3 years ago

i would like to know whether i need to send you any stamp from my side


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello sikkim.....

For my free stamp offer it is not necessary to send me anything except a request by regular mail.

I am trying to collect an item of mail from all countries, and something from all of my friends in mylot.

If you have stamps or covers/envelopes you would like to trade, I will glady trade other material with you.

Happy collecting....

Tom


sikkim (82)  3 years ago

what can i send you for trade i am from Sikkim, India. i am to this hobby for about four years and i find this hobby very interesting.


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello Sikkim.....

If you are interested in trading material, I would very much like to have items of mail from each of India's states.

I understand that this would be a difficult collection to complete and it could take a fair amount of time, but that is the nature of collecting and I enjoy....."the thrill of the hunt". Older material is more interesting to me because it reminds me of my younger days when I was just beginning my collection. It is very difficult to find material like this in good condition here in the US.

If you could find items like this for me, I would reward you well.

Tom






sikkim (82)  3 years ago

can i ask you how old ru


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello Sikkim....

I am almost 56, I've been collecting about 49-50 years. I started collecting when I was in my first year of school in 1957-58. At that time my older brother and one of my uncles gave me stamps and helped me learn. Over the years I have helped many young people and adults get started by giving stamps and information to them. I really enjoy sharing this hobby, the feeling of discovery, the thrill of the hunt excitement that I felt as a beginner and still feel whenever a package arrives in the mail from a purchase or one of my trading friends from all over the world.

sikkim (82)  3 years ago

i am 28 years old and i have started this hobby just few years back. today i feel i did not do wrong by following this hobby. i belong to sikkim, an extinct country and now a small state in India. i am helping people follow this hobby around my state and i have started a small philatelic club " Sikkim Philatelic Club" but i find very hard to gets stamps to distribute among my club members to begin with. i have always believed that buying stamps isn't worth a collection's art. for me a stamp collection is no less than admiring a stamp. well i heard that a mail is thier for me in the post office from USA but i could not go to collect today. i hope it's yours. i shall mail you after i receive it.

sikkim (82)  3 years ago

two days back i received a mail from Tom, i never imagined i could get more than hundreds of stamps just for nothing. i simply adore his motive behind encouraging philately across the globe, i am sure for a small philatelic club like ours, this is our fortune to get along with Tom. i am sure Tom will help me in days to come too.


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello Sikkim....

Glad to hear you have received the packet I send and that you and your stamp club are enjoying them. Send me a letter and I will send more stamps for you.

Tom


sikkim (82)  3 years ago

well Tom
i never realised i would get another bulk of stamps from you so soon. i do not know whether you received my mail. well do inform when you get it. but for now its a big thank you to you.


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

9. white_tiger (43)   3 years ago

hello me again!

i found this thread about your offer...

would you like me to send you a first day cover? and would you like some used/mint stamps inside the envelope too? reading this post it sounds like you don't want anything in return, but i can offer you plenty of Aussie stamps:)


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello white_tiger.....

My main interests are leaning more towards postal history......whole covers/envelopes that been sent through the mail, of any age. I enjoy older material and stamps for the most part because they remind me of my younger days when I had just begun my collection, but there are also many newer items that I find appealing.

It is not necessary for you to send anything except a request for my free stamp offer, but if you choose to, I will gladly add whatever you send to my collection.

Thank you.......

Tom

I am not very understand yet! You want my country's envelope? But my country now is use white in colour's envelope, the old one cannot use already! And what is good condition new stamp?


myLot reputation of 84/100. nrnotrare (417)   ranked 1 out of 30 in stamp collecting  3 years ago

Hello 7800809.....

I collect used envelopes with cancels and stamps on them. Envelopes that carried letters to someone. I am trying to collect an envelope from all the countries involved with mylot, and from each of my mylot friends. Good condition new stamps are the ones you buy at the post office to send mail, stamps that are not used or damaged.

Would you be interested in creating a collection like this starting with something from me?

If you would like to help me with my collection, add me to your friends list so I can send you my address.
