  • Scott is right. But surprises always happen. Many years ago I bought a collection that consisted mostly of Fluegel, Ioor, etc cachets. When It arrived in the mail I discovered the collector had thrown in 500 or so Artcraft and Artmaster FDCs. I star…
  • I usually let my feelings of loyalty to regular customers. I have in the past confessed to a regular customer about the pending sale and sent a refund to reflect the sale prices. Others I do not. I figure its up to me. I don't HAVE to do it, but I W…
  • Hi Luree! Looks like this one could land anywhere between Miami and Georgia! Keeping a eye on it tho and hoping for the best (which is a hard turn to the north and away). wayne
  • Luree. We were all lucky here in Palm Beach County - "The Lake Communities" more that others. BUT, it is hard to celebrate our good fortune when our brothers and sisters on the west coast have endured and face so much more suffering. I'm glad I'm …
  • Rene, Of all the natural disasters I choose Hurricane. We've had a week to obsess about it coming, and 48 hours to get ready. That consists of the head between the legs thingy. Luree is ready, I'm ready and I hope all our fellow buyers and sellers, …
  • Thanks Dave.
  • Hey Luree, Stay safe and dry! wayne
  • Most US sellers are required to collect and pay their state's sales tax. Each state had different rules, it is best to check with your own states sales tax bureau. Here in Florida, for example, we are required to collect sales tax based on the buyer…
  • Second the motion! StampManage is the best.
  • This is fun; I know I can't win but it is still fun. I sent a hypothetical sale to CS. "A person comes to my "office" with a list of items from my Hipstamp store they want to buy. I go to Hipstamp and put each of the items in their shopping cart, bu…
  • I finally received a response from customer Service: "Hi Wayne, Our team has looked into your issue and determined that the Sale Fees listed were accurate. Please note that Transaction Fees are calculated at 8.95% (for HipStamp) of the Total Amoun…
  • The last message I got from Cust. Service (8-3-22): "We will keep looking into this since we are unable to determine the possible causes of the situation you have pointed out at this time. As soon as we work this out, we'll get in touch. ​ Feel fre…
  • According to https://www.hipstamp.com/site-fees. The transaction fee is 8.95% "Based on The Total Amount of the Sale".
  • 7 years ago I set out to change my stock storage. It was getting out of control with private ID's resembling secret code. I set up Red Boxes for 102 cards - numbered them RB1-10 to start (RB=Red Box - clever???). Found some tubs at office depot that…
  • It depends on if you are a collector or an investor. If you are a collector and collect plate # singles, then by definition plate blocks have a lesser value than the plate # single that you WANT for your collection. If you are an investor or are lo…
  • Assuming all things are equal, Hipstamp may well be a better value than eBay. But comparing Hipstamp to eBay is like comparing Dan Quayle to JKF (God! I'm old!) Maybe somebody from staff should compare dollars invested to dollars realized. eBay is p…
  • "new and exciting features such as the HipStamp App" Exciting??????? I repeat. "It's been nice being had"
  • My 1968 yearbook from Syracuse University showed a carnival exit on the next to the last page. On it were the words "It's been nice having you". The next page had the words "It's been nice being had". Thanks Hipstamp.
  • I first came to Hip as a buyer, then as a seller 6 years ago. I'm not sure about the cost differences between Hip and eBay. I just felt more at home here. After all the OWNER of the company took an active part in the forums and was helpful. Haven't …
  • AND you'll notice there was no good news for those who use the sync with ebay. Just blather.
  • Hipstamp (or is it ebay) seems intent on making money just to exist. Sit back and count the fees, the hell with sales. I have already made the decision to close my store in October. Changed my store to yearly pay just for the hell of it to keep my i…
  • Situation normal in South Florida. HOT and afternoon thunderstorms that only pump up the humidity. "It's not the heat...it's the humidity.
  • Harry. I once hated the new site even more than you. I finally sacrificed a morning of work and played around the site trying to understand how I could use it effectively (for both buying and selling). Now it is as normal as the original site for me…
  • One of the measures of a civilized society is how well it looks after the most vulnerable members of its society. If that is true, and it most certainly is, then we are rushing headlong into losing our country as we know it. We are not losing it to …
  • An American once walked on the moon. We have men and women circling the earth in a space station. Is it a far reach to think we cannot come together and find a way to save our children? Pray for the families of the murdered children, pray for us all…
  • I managed to get it installed. If you use chrome you will get a popup and it will install from there - the popup is random so keep trying. I usually use Duckduckgo browser so when I disable Chrome the app won't load because it needs "a browser to ru…
  • We all should add Russia to our list of countries we do not ship to. The US and EU have put some rather harsh restrictions on that government. The one that applies to us is total restrictions on import or export of products; especially products that…
  • Remember when people bought a whole pad of Elvis stamps and put them in a safe deposit box? Wouldn't it be wunnerful if they were forever stamps. Gotta go and decide if I really have to raise my shipping. Sigh....
  • It's the grumpy part that bothers me
