Are there many stamp collectors out there anymore?

in #stamps7 years ago

                                            I would just like to know if people today collect stamps anymore.


I used to collect stamps years ago. It started when I was about 8 years old. My Mother, Uncle, Grandfather and one of my Grandmothers did also. I even remember some of my school friends collecting them too.

Now it seems that stamp collecting is dead. Coins and Banknotes are still very much in demand.

Does anyone here collect stamps or have collected them and still have some stored away? Have you rare and expensive stamps?

I have some of my stamps from years ago and I have a large album of Irish stamps, some rare and fairly expensive and some not but very beautiful to look at.

Anybody else interested in sharing images or stories about stamp collecting?

I'm keen to know and connect
