2 / Getting About The Site
We use the Drilldown method of Display.
All folders are represented by stamp or flag images! So to go to an area just click the image and you will go directly there!
Once inside the specific area you will be offered other images of what is in that folder. So, for example if you click on "North America" you will be taken to the next level down. In that particular folder you will find two images: "Canada" - " Newfoundland" if you then click on the image of "Newfoundland" you will be taken to the next level down in which there are also two folders: Early Newfoundland and "Newfoundland King George VI" So, if you click "Newfoundland King George VI" there you will find a selection of about 60 items for sale! All in Date order and with both Gibbons and Scott catalogue numbers! N.B. We do not list: "Out of stock Items"! So, there is no time wasting!
2a/ Using the Search Box
The serach engine is very user friendly. So, if you seek something specific then it is both fast and easy to use! An example would be: if you want to find all the New Zealand mint stamps we have for 1964? It isnt case sensative so simpley type in the "Search Box": New Zealand 1964 Mint and it will produce a list of all such items we have in stock!. However its smart and can use shortcuts so, for example: Zeal min 964 will produce the same result!
