The plethora of stamp releases have now made me select items I want to collect, rather than collect everything that the Royal Mail produce. I no longer buy commemoratives unless they are likely to increase in value eg Bond, Potter, The Beatles and then only in presentation packs which seem to hold their value more. I collect Minisheets, booklets, also prestige booklets. I also have a healthy interest in Machins. Apart from the odd smiler sheet to get a rare single that's about it. So Royal Mail's loss as I only spend a fraction of what I used to spend. At one time I used to get a set of stamps, a presentation pack an FDC and send off Stamp cards with stamps on for first day issue stamp but not any more.marcoonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11464073579217192381noreply@blogger.com
