Yellow pages???????
This post is directed to members living on any continent besides North
America! I am a member of a small stamp site. The secretary of this site often receives enrollment requests from people outside of North America - and occasionally the new enrollee enters with a main interest of finding out how much their stamp are worth. The secretary directs such queries to me - and I'm happy to help out...but! I first suggest they visit a library and have the librarian direct them toward their stamp catalogs. My second suggestion is to go to the 'yellow pages' of their phone directory and look up a stamp dealer. Sometimes I get a reply - something like "Huh, Yellow Pages, where can I find that?" It's pretty apparent that the term yellow pages isn't universal. Yellow pages (for those not familiar) are the listings in (usually) the back of the telephone directory that list businesses. With this explanation - can any foreign (ex USA) members here provide the equivalent 'term' for their country? Regards, Dakota |

The Global Yellow-Pages is a collection of phone directories from around the world. To find a number anywhere in the globe select a country from the list below. Thanks for the assist. I did check it out and it seems just the thing - however I did jump into a few countries and found no reference to Philatelic or stamps. Curious!!!!! Dakota |
