Hello, Welcome to cddstamps. If you are a new visitor, it is very nice to see you and we hope you enjoy looking at the online store and the stamps we have for sale. Some 36,000+ by the latest count. But don't procrastinate, we do see many countries sell fast after we load new stock. Please read our feedback. I know many people mock feedback but we take great pride in the feedback we receive because it is a real reflection on us and the stamps and service we provide. Try it and decide for yourself.

And perhaps these are 7 points we should make - 1) we do our best to show front and reverse scans; 2) all mint stamps are in black mount, sometimes clear mounts but usually black mounts; 3) we describe our stamps in detail where needed, that is basically any stamp that is not a straightforward 25c stamp; 4) we DO NOT say Quantity X and leave you wondering what you will get if you buy; 5) we do not list, and just for example, show 4 stamps that are all overlapping so you cannot see what you are buying; 6) list a stamp and refuse to show you a scan of the actual stamp; and 7 edit the colour of teh stamp to make it look 'cleaner / brighter in colour'.

The last point is really important - We see plenty of damaged stamps from other sellers, stamps that have the colour brightened, especially 'whitening' as we see it, stamps with light creases clearly showing if you look carefully, stamps that do not have a reverse image, and even one seller who does not even bother to show an image of what is being sold - yet somehow manages to sell a lot of stamps - dumping I think it is called!

You can buy with total confidence from cddstamps. And to help you this reminds me to mention the Book. 'Caveat emptor and other advice for philatelists'.

Perhaps if you are new to what some call the wild wild west of the stamp collecting world, the online marketplaces that is, this might be a useful guide.

And, we think this supports our credibility - we are very proud of over 24,000 positive feedbacks. We think that says a lot but don't just take our word, read some of the feedback comments and we think you will see just what we offer, especially if you are new to cddstamps.

As for the book, scroll on... we have an eBook copy available - to see a preview visit here, or for those of you who like the feel of a real book we have a rather nice softcopy at this link

We hope to see you in the store. Enjoy your stamps. Best wishes Michael cddstamps

Treat yourself, or a friend who collects and buys stamps on the internet

Or, if you are starting to sell on the internet I think this will help you be successful and very quickly establish credibility with your buyers. I am confident you will both learn and maybe smile at much that you read.
