    Very informative, thanks for taking us along. If your permanent residence is in Europe, you might prefer ebay Germany because there are no fees for private sellers. Greets from GER, U.

      Yes, I’ve already discovered ebay.de and have favorited a couple of dealers. For that matter, Amazon.de has become my go-to shopping portal. Amazon.es as well as Portuguese online shopping sites, like Worten.pt, won’t ship to Madeira.

    I like going to stamp shows. The disadvantage is that, at least in my area there are only 2 a year. The good part is that I can save up and see my favorite, and trusted dealers.

      It’s been quite a few years since I have been to one. I am eager to go again.

    Hip stamp is great if I'm looking for a specific stamp so is colnect but I still prefer ebay for buying random collections and albums

      My stamp purchases are almost exclusively singles and sets and can agree with you there.

    How about the APS section of HipStamp???

    • @tedtalksstamps

      Ordering from the APS store is good. As it's an agglomeration of many different sellers' inventories, they have the broadest selection of stamps even though they rank 5th largest in total inventory. You also have the benefit of shopping from multiple dealers while paying only one shipping fee (although shipping is higher than most dealers). Quality of listings, though, varies widely among the APS dealers, especially in the quality of the images provided. I've also found that, particularly on better quality items, they often have the most reasonable prices.

    Hipstamp is backed by APS in part

    • @tedtalksstamps
      @tedtalksstamps  2 месяца назад

      APS moved their APS Stamp Store to the HipStamp platform. After I uploaded the video, I 🤦🏼 realizing I forgot to mention that.

    I prefer Hipstamp. Easier to use and better deals. I will never buy off ebay again.

      Hipstamp has higher fees than eBay. For this reason, I offer better deals on my ebay store than on my Hipstamp store.

    Hi Ted, good work but I did wonder why ZIllionsOfStamps was not covered? :-)

      I never thought of it. Thanks for the reminder.
