Hello everyone. I am Garrie from the Philippines. 43yrs old. Returning back to the hobby after some time. Suffered stroke a while back and have lots of extra time in my hand. Hoping to learn more about the hobby. I love architectures like castles and churches, cartoon and famous personalities.

Still in the process of segregating stamps.

Thank you.

Welcome to Stamp Bears!

I think you will find this to be a very friendly community of stamp collectors.

What are your collecting interests, or as with me ... what is your "focus for now" until something else comes along?

Thank you. Have a lot of spare time in my hand so segregating and researching the stamps I have. I want to know more about cinderellas and more on c. Slania's works.

Thank you. Browsing the threads that interests me. Forgeries are an interesting topic but I think an expensive theme. 😂. Will have a look at it.

garrieph , I wish you a speedy recovery from your stroke. There are many common forgeries. However, you are quite right, forgeries can be very expensive. Especially when you purchase one by accident. Our extensive forgeries guide can be helpful for preventing that.

On the other hand, you've probably already noticed that there's a lot of other stuff happening here at SB. The case-sensitive search tab under the banner on the main page is useful. Also, all current activity is grouped together for easy access under the 'Recent Threads' link over the shout box on the same page.

We look forward to seeing some of your favorite pieces once you get comfortable here.

Regards, Bill
