DEAR FRIEND,
I am 52 French collector, living in Belgium for my job, and I am looking for serious partners in order to swap stamps during a long time.
My collection is very advanced, because I am collecting since I am 6. I have succeeded in getting most of Western countries issues, and I am then working only with wantlists, based on Yvert et Tellier or local catalogues. Anyhow, my wantlists are easily exploitable even if our catalogues are different. I am collecting for pleasure and never for money, and I then look like mostly used stamps in good conditions, even if mint stamps are good when there is no choice. Do not contact me for full mint series.
I am ready to send wantlists when you are interested.
I am looking for precise countries with more very short or short lists : All Western European countries, with especially Italy, Spain, Portugal and Scandinavia, but also Australia, NZ, USA, Canada, Japan and Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco and Israel.
In return, I am offering first French stamps, even high values, in both used condition but also mint ones (I have bought many French collections for getting the few ones which are still missing). I have no dispolists, because I have most of French stamps as duplicates.
Due to the fact that I have got thousands of duplicates for getting sometimes just some missing issues, I have several thousands of different stamps from Australia, Japan (even high values), NZ, Scandinavia and all the Western Countries, including some interesting Pacific Ocean stamps. Sometimes, I am very conscious that my duplicates, useless for me, should be real treasures for collectors. For initiating a new country collection, I should be very useful
If you are serious, and if it is valuable for both of us, because you have enough stamps for investing time with me, please contact me. We will see how to initiate confident swapping actions, the first sendings being very sensitive, and I do not want to lose sendings too often. It must be a win-win exchange.
If you are interesetd within these conditions, please contact me
Friendly yours
