902 | P'd off I'm really getting p'd off at bidders who bid the minimum repeatedly till they finally find the amount that you have bid and they have passed it by a small amount. In a previous auction a lot that started at $1 another bidder kept bidding the minimum, one step at a time, till he/she had passed my $50 odd bid. Is time not more precious. Why not just bid the maximum that you are prepared to bid. This is not a last minute bidding frenzy, when we have all paid too much in little increases over and over. Some collectors have too much time on their hands. warm3 - 2008-11-23 13:37:00 |

904 | 903 I would say dramatically upsetting. But better than sniping effects on EB. At least the bidder has to be there to bid. Still upsetting though. warm3 - 2008-11-24 00:19:00 |

910 | book forum Ever noticed that whenever a new message is posted there is nearly always a more recent message in the book forum. It is usually always on the top. warm3 - 2008-11-27 23:19:00 |
911 | 910 so now 3 forums have all posted later than the book forum. warm3 - 2008-11-27 23:21:00 |

915 | place them on the main page, costs a few dollars but returns are great, as people want something that is unusual. and they are not the browsers! william1091 - 2008-11-30 23:14:00 |

922 | sold one--- over a year ago, had 25 watchers, and went for over $30. looked at ebay before i listed and one was going for 8 pound. never saw final result. but i guess for royal family collectors! as bidders were not mainstream stamp buyers. have seen in major dealers stamp auction with estimate at $40. william1091 - 2008-12-01 22:41:00 |

933 | What is funny about the long serving dealers is that most of them started out in New Plymouth. I guess it is the best city in the world! metcalfj - 2008-12-07 09:36:00 |

936 | Children collecting. I have had a few peoples' children buy stamps from me. Mostly they have parents who are or have been collectors themselves. My 7 year old daughter is just starting to collect too. I'm sure there are far fewer than the past. You get so few stamps on letters these days. And I haven't seen children swapping stamps in the playground like when I was at school. stak - 2008-12-08 09:16:00 |

940 | Golden Jubilee Pigeongram FDC I recently bought a FDC on TM (as part of a bulk lot of health FDCs): 1898-Golden Jubilee Great Barrier Island Pigeongram Stamp-1948, on an illustrated cover issued by the Auckland P.S. Inc. (Postmarked 19 Nov 1948, with 1948 health stamps - and the Golden Jubilee cinderella). Any info on the cinderella and/or the cover would be appreciated (I have enquired with the APS - and will pass on any info they can provide). TIA. gerbilman - 2008-12-11 16:26:00 |
941 | gerbilman That is the cover put out by the willy_hunt - 2008-12-11 21:09:00 |
942 | Hi Willy Thanks for the CV - I couldn't find any mention of the cover in my catalogue. gerbilman - 2008-12-11 21:40:00 |
943 | Glow-in-the-dark stamps I've just heard we are getting glow-in-the-dark lighthouse stamps next year. NZ Post seem to come up with a new gimic each year. stak - 2008-12-12 18:34:00 |

947 | Ross Dependency .. thanks for that Donaldo. Don't know that I want to start collecting, just fascinated by a few decades of NZ and world stamps. I knew someone on the Uni team and I must have asked him a favour at the time. Perhaps I'm the only one with them @!! (doubt it though ..) Cheers. ravenraye - 2008-12-13 12:29:00 |
948 | re 943 Maybe if we buy enough of them, we can use them instead of candles during power-cuts! phil.s - 2008-12-13 14:49:00 |
