STU1967  are Stuart and Sharon Woodhouse, both 41 y.o. and we live just outside the Famous Brecon Beacons National Park in South West Wales- United Kingdom.

 I started collecting stamps as a kid for several years but the interest wained ,but was drawn back into stamps back in the mid nineties when I did some work for another stamp dealer which gave me the 'bug' again.

 Stuart in charge of the UNIMPORTANT THINGS and  Sharon in charge of everything else.

How and when did we start ?

Initially we traded in 1999 ,with our humble goods to the large stamp dealers in London ,we survived on crusts for years. Ebay came along and we cut our then  'middleman' for a while. I now see  eBay as a 'middleman'  becoming  more greedier, gradually adjusting its fee's to feed the 'Fat Cats' .

I'm pleased to say that we haven't put any listings on eBay for 9 months now and aren't any worse for it. Thanks for all the customers who had the 'bottle' and 'belief'  to follow us from there to the site. The site has become quite well established now and you should notice in the next YEAR  a real difference in the amount of stock as we really beginning to notice ourselves how much is being loaded now that Sharon has mastered the site aswell.

Please let me know if there are any 'Dead Ends' or 'Broken Threads' on the site and I'll try my hardest to resolve the issues.Keep coming back too,I'm going to be added extra lots  daily.

Please buy with confidence.I may have 7700+ positive feedbacks on eBay ,but over 12,500 transactions,that averages 5 lots per EVERY single customer!

We sell mostly on paper mixtures from Great Britain and Northern Europe and Scandanavia ,but also Australia and off paper mixtures.I also get hold of Britsh Issues used pretty quickly after being released.

Also we have added a large amount of Canadian stamps, Australia and New Zealand. Eventually we'd like to be able to list the whole world as we do have substantial stock of recent world but time dictates everyday what we are able to achieve.
