Default Abusive Stamp Issues 2013

Abusive issues are those that were legally issued by some postal
administrations but they do not comply with the terms of the "Philatelic
Code of Ethics for the use by member countries of the Union", established by
the WADP and approved in 2008 by all member countries of the UPU. These are
stamps that do not meet the internal needs of the countries for their postal
traffic and sometimes are not sold in the countries themselves. 2

To our knowledge, for abusive issues there are no reporting procedures
similar to those for illegal issues. Indeed, postal administrations are not
going to acknowledge having signed contracts that do not comply with the
Philatelic Code of Ethics. This important and sometimes difficult task would
be the responsibility of organizations representing the collectors, such as
WADP, and including one of its components, the International Federation of
Philately - FIP. Unfortunately, we haven't seen any action or reaction from
WADP in the field of abusive issues, despite its existence for over 15
years.

Collectors are presented with a fait accompli, the many abusive issues on
the philatelic market, and we observe that we are among the few who deal
with these issues. In this short article we try to do our best in presenting
the current situation of abusive issues.

IF collectors would think before purchasing such useless material it
would soon go away. Collectors themselves are responsible for the
production to meet the 'demand' of those that will buy anything to
fill 'holes'.
