As a longtime collector , British Commonwealth , Denmark, Samoa, Tobacco , wartime and military mail, I have been a member half a dozen societies and clubs.
With many years of experience of collecting I hope I have useful information to pass on, and I know I ,m still learning.
I was 10 years on another forum but found the admin there less than understanding of inexperienced collectors and frequently abusive so I left when I in turn was subject of just too much .
So looking to find a more sympathetic home to share knowledge.
Welcome from a Sussex born fellow living in Manitoba. Think on the whole we are a pretty reasonable crowd.
There is a vast wealth of knowledge here, freely shared by beginners and experts alike.
I know what you mean about the other forum I got jumped on for my first post .he may know a lot but sometimes he's arrogant to newbies .No one on here gets that kind of treatment .
I think you will enjoy your time with us ,plenty of auctions and approvals to browse and a discussion board to add your comments on various subjects you find interesting .Welcome
Brian
