I got another post card from our beloved USPS again today about the flat rate priority mail. Something I thought you folks out there like to read, other than regular stamp stories. nothing special tonight just something to amuse y'all

It’s been almost a month since my last update. Life has been busy and challenging, yet I still find times for stamps. Not sure what to write about today but allow me attempt to show you the some tools I use to determine the market price for certain stamps.

I will be the first to admit that I love looking for bargains on Ebay. Once I find something I like and wonder if I may be paying to high for the stamps. I will then surf over to Linns Zillionstamps to check out what the dealers are asking for them. I know they are other stamp prices resources out there and I do use them. Actually I end going to a few of them as well.

Apart from collecting stamps some of you may know that I like covers as well. Postal History to be exact, I recently acquired a decent WWII transports 1943 cover from New York, USA to Tananarive, Madagascar. It has 2 postmarks behind this cover from the postal authority of Madagascar. This cover has 2 blue 30c transports stamp franked, paying 30c per ½ oz.

In my opinion a great cover with a tough destination and nice time frame of WWII period.
