| 2701 | Grrrr! NZ Post. I have just had a letter I posted returned to me with the lack of postage sticker on it. The letter was within the permitted size including thickness. I think that it was returned as I had used a 50c CAL for postage! Does NZ Post not recognize it's own stamps!! I shall go to my local post office on Monday to complain. I have posted about 30 envelopes in the last few weeks using CALs for collectors and this is the first one I have had back. Has anyone else struck this problem? Wow, I feel better now that I have had a bit of a vent! stak - 2010-08-28 13:28:00 |
| 2702 | The only CAL's NZ Post censors are the Tibet Flag ones. willy_hunt - 2010-08-28 13:56:00 |
| 2703 | No it was a Radio NZ one. If I had a Tibet one I would hang on to it tightly, ha ha! stak - 2010-08-28 15:43:00 |

| 2712 | Just in case Stamp club participants are wondering about the Christchurch earthquake, the Stamp fair scheduled for earlier today at the philatelic centre was cancelled. There is some damage to displays in Christchurch outlet of Real Aotearoa (Much glasswear etc on floor) and shades stamp shop (My shop) has had quite a bit of material scattered off shelves and one display cabinet broken with glass shelves down. Both places are secure and probably will open later on Monday. I have only just got power back on at home where there were lots of books etc on the floor. an interesting time for sure! kiwisteven - 2010-09-04 17:28:00 |

| 2714 | Hi Steven, what007 - 2010-09-04 17:57:00 |
| 2715 | Philafarinz wishes everyone affected by the Christchurch earthquake a strengthened and focussed mind at this time of upheaval and know that you have the heart to overcome. philafarinz - 2010-09-06 16:34:00 |
| 2716 | Further to my earlier posting, it looks likely that none of the stamp businesses in central Christchurch will be able to open at least until thursday so if you need to contact them use emails rather than phones. I have heard from several collectors whose houses are in a bad way with some most likely to need demolishing. one collector lost a philipines collection through a flooded with silt garage. No doubt other losses will be revealed in the fullness of time. The stamp clubrooms, the Philatelic Centre in Mandeville st, Riccarton has come thru unscathed with only 1 glass shelf broken and a few books off shelves. kiwisteven - 2010-09-06 19:47:00 |

these are New Zealand stamps. Postage and stamp department stamps used by the post office themselves. They are in the old kiwi catalogue but not the latest revenue book. kiwisteven - 2010-09-07 22:34:00 |

Thanks Murray. I will be reopening my shop tomorrow morning (Friday) as the building has been given the all clear and the no go cordons will be lifted in the morning. The Bus exchange is also scheduled to open in the morning as is nearby Ballantynes and many other retailers although i know many who will not. most foodshops won't open until next week but already the best coffee shops are open. kiwisteven - 2010-09-09 22:15:00 |
| 2725 | WELL DONE NZ POST I'd just like to thank NZ Post who have been doing a great job here in Christchurch since the earthquake hit. We even got a delivery on Saturday and items I have sent this week have arrived across town the next day. It can't be an easy job to do at the moment. stak - 2010-09-10 09:37:00 |
| 2726 | NZ Post are saying there will be no postal deliveries in Canterbury tomorrow. They deserve a break. paulmc - 2010-09-10 14:19:00 |

Even the Tibet ones they DO permit to go through the mail (as the Tibetans paid the postage): they just like to cover them up with airmail stickers in case some passing Chinese secret policeperson should see it. spameater - 2010-09-14 16:17:00 |
| 2734 | Hi People I have been given quite a number of NZ stamps via inheritence. Now I'm not really a stamp collector and am wondering if it is worth selling on TM or through a dealer? http://images.trademe.co.nz/photoserver/23/143666523_full.jp bd30 - 2010-09-15 21:51:00 |

| 2743 | There are a few auctions by the same member but I am wondering about his prices - they seem high compared to cat value. Was wondering your thoughts people - here is one of his auctions: bdreid10 - 2010-09-24 08:09:00 |

| 2747 | you guys seem very knowlegable on the stamp subject ,can I ask your thoughts re thread on faulty stamps ,it regarding a NZ stamp book purchased only to find that it has only the prints -no serated edges or peel off abilty? cheers saltnpepper has been most helpful ,more input would be most appreciated :) jane2rose - 2010-09-28 09:52:00 |

Is this a stamp booklet purchased from NZ Post to be used for postage? If so and you can't use it as it has been misprinted it could be quite collectable. Perhaps it's something quite different so perhaps you could put a photo up here. You would be able to get more help then. stak - 2010-09-28 11:18:00 |
| 2749 | yes its a stamp booklet of 10 purchased for use (the red booklets)all ten have no serated edges and cannot be peeled.heres a close up of them. Edited by jane2rose at 1:58 pm, Tue 28 Sep jane2rose - 2010-09-28 13:56:00 |
