I really enjoyed this video! Thank you for taking us to the stamp show with you. It looks like you got some really great deals

[@thatdadguy1974]

I think I did and it is always fun chatting with others who enjoy the hobby

[@joyseng]

Thanks for showing your local stamp show. I like it that most items are clearly priced. Overall a very good haul! A whole binder of covers at only $7, and 50 covers for only $5! The pages of Newfoundland stamps are also so good value! I wish I was there, and I would have spent a lot more there!

[@thatdadguy1974]

Thanks so much for watching. I will be filming another show this weekend

Great video. Thanks for sharing

My pleasure thanks for watching

[@johnscamardo2145]

A good haul .I always liked to go to shows and look through what was there first then go back to who I wanted to look through.

[@thatdadguy1974]

That is a great way to approach the show to get an overview

[@jimconnell133]

Enjoyed this. Never been to a stamp show. I need to find one and go. Thanks for sharing.

[@thatdadguy1974]

Thank you. It is the place to go to find deals and fill in those holes in the collection.

[@Philatherapist]

Congrats! For $100/- you surely got a bargain for the whole lot and it is worth the effort of driving in the cold morning. The Newfoundland lot is a gem and I would love to get my hands on it just in case you don’t need it or already have in your collections.BTW you got a new subscriber! Great video and I am finding some time to view you other videos and looking forward for more .👍👍👍

Hey fella ... lovley vid of the show . Great to see . Watching from the uk just found your channel .👍

[@thatdadguy1974]

Thank you so much for watching. Nice to get more people from across the pond watching :)

[@thomasprochnow5658]

A really good video and it's interesting to see what treasures you can find with a set budget. Good stuff!

[@thatdadguy1974]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting

[@itamarleitmann827]

Nice video, and congratulation staying on the budget. Its so funny to see how most of the stamps and covers are so cheap there!🤑

[@thatdadguy1974]

First day covers are not as collectable as they once were so old ones are cheap to acquire most times

[@marzycat]

I'm not a collector but I would have enjoyed going through those stamps and first day covers. Seems you did pretty well and still came in under budget. I look forward to seeing more of today's purchases on a future video.

[@thatdadguy1974]

It is a fun little hobby. Lots to enjoy from these little pieces of art

[@MarkDyck]

So cool! I'm off to the show in Victoria BC tomorrow and I hope the selection is as good. Nice Legion hall too! :) I perked up when you showed the country collections so it was cool to see you bought the Newfoundland collection. I had a buddy who was planning to go to that Moncton show, I wonder if he was in the video. I only know him online. 🙂

[@thatdadguy1974]

I hope you find a bunch of deals as well. I have had fun showing what I got in other videos too. Thanks for watching.

[@GreatStampAdventure]

I enjoyed this video very much! Thanks for making it! Interesting to see what was at the show. I think you did very well, Rob, and good for you to stay within your budget! I am looking forward very much to see more about what you bought. Take care!

[@thatdadguy1974]

As you know, half the fun is the social aspect and the discovery of new stamps or even places you haven’t heard of before. Thanks for watching

[@lilyhax]

Some of those auction items looked interesting. I love boxes of stamps - soaking and sorting them. There is always a surprise.

[@thatdadguy1974]

Lots of deals to be had for sure

[@GarryRobertson]

I haven't been to a Stamp Show for years but will probably go to the next local one here (Vancouver, BC area). I just have to do the work before hand and have an idea of what I'm looking for or I'll end up buying a lot more than I really have use for.

[@thatdadguy1974]

That is a very good plan. I bet your stamps show will have lots of great variety

[@janjonson3553]

So cool if you have so place wher you can drive and bay stamps! 🤗

[@thatdadguy1974]

I feel fortunate indeed

[@Robertbrown08049]

It has been my experience that there are two types of dealers at stamps shows. Those that have mostly inexpensive stamps and those that have pricier stamps. Since I was born pretty instead of rich and still need a lot of inexpensive stamps I tend to gravitate to the former. Lol!

[@thatdadguy1974]

I can feel your pain lol. And it is very true those are the two types of dealers you can find

[@idamariegiusti3615]

Stamp shows are always fun.

[@thatdadguy1974]

Interesting to see what is there and socialize with others who enjoy the hobby

[@stephenogier7499]

Nice lot of stamps and covers there, Rob. Well done! ...And what a bargain.

[@thatdadguy1974]

I think it was a real bargain when you see what is in the lot

[@user-ck4ou8ih3u]

I like stamp fairs not always many tables at this time of the year next one January 20th I collect stamps that catch my eye I always get a cup of tea as spend so much time at a particular table they help me . I have a budget but I some time go over it depends on Mark

[@thatdadguy1974]

Everyone is so helpful in whatever you ask them. People are excited to share their knowledge

My pleasure. It is a really friendly group here

[@madzen112]

So many cheap stamps out there, can't be hard to start a nice collection

[@madzen112]

'Ducks of the 3rd Reich' or 'Guinea pigs of New Guinea' or something like that

[@thatdadguy1974]

Yes it can be a good way to get started

[@user-qh7km9jz5r]
