oh dear!



I'm a stamp dealer. I make my living selling stamps. I assume other dealers do the same!

But take a look at this. It's a stamp auction catalogue but the firm sending it has so little respect both for their business and mine that they can't even be bothered to use stamps! Just a preprinted frank on the envelope. Okay, they may save a few pence, but I would have stamped this with an array of nice commemoratives or scarcer booklet stamps etc that would have been nicely postmarked and would have sold for more than the face value.

Consequently I won't even be opening this package - it'll be going straight in the bin.

This is not the way to do business when times are good let alone when they are bad!
