I have a Scott Specialty album for a country that I bought some 15 years ago and never paid attention to it. So I purchased a set of pages from the Scott Cat at a reasonable price and shipping price. I have no dog (or cat if you are a cat person) in this show, but thought it might be a handy source for anyone needing a single country. www.ebay.com/sch/chirokmd/m.html?item=362899870531&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562 |

I wanted to get the Guyana pages but $3 for pages and $8 for postage, nah would rather spend that on more stamps, sorry.

Overseas postage rates are high, especially when size exceeds the normal letter and/or thickness and/or stiffness. Imagine what a single Scott volume would cost to ship to you. I would think the Scott pages would be inadequate for a specialist such as you. |

With all the overprints and surcharges I need all the resources I can get, the latest Scott pages I bought from you go to 2016, I also have SG up to 2009 and recently got michel to 2012, also use Stampworld occasionally.
SG should be bringing out a new one next year

Those single country Scott pages can be really handy and much cheaper than the whole catalog especially if you buy one of their bargains that might be missing the first or last pages.

I have bought a great deal from this seller. Postage is reasonable for me in Canada. I usually wait and buy multiple counties a couple of times a year.
i have found it very help and inexpensive way to catalogue my varois countries of interest.

I would add it shows the market for individual country pages. I have never used Scott's digital catalogue options so do know if you can print them out.

I have on occasion taken photos on my phone of a few pages of the newest catalog in the library. I have done this to update from my 2013 printed catalog the changing values of some countries such as Hong Kong. It is a simple way to stay up to date when only a few pages are needed.

Sadly, I can no longer get countries ripped from Scott Catalogues
It was a marvellous idea, that kept me up to date
Well don Rich, hope you recover fast.

I received the following sad email today. Many of you, I'm sure are familiar with Rich from CHIROKMD, provider of individual country pages from the New Scott Catalogues each year since 2004. I've purchased numerous catalogue pages from him over the years and recommended his service many times. He will be missed. His service provided an economical way to have a current catalogue available for country specialists.

A note from Rich
Scottcataloguepages/EBAY CHIROKMD
2004-2023
Sadly on December 19, 2024, my wedding anniversary, my business of cutting Scott Catalogues came to an abrupt end by fire.
This business ,was on the second floor and my wife's restaurant Nana;s New York Hot Dogs, on the first. Been here since 1964. Stories told about the shop crossed generations Kids were always treated to HUGS (Juice Drink) and Kisses (HERSHEYS). My wife was always referred to as NANA by children and adults. I miss seeing this interaction so much.
The building we have a mortgage on. This was our life and our complete income source..
I suffered burns to both hands, shoulder, and face getting my wife out. Apparently I caught fire. I will heal physically.
I always called this the perfect job. I will miss everyone
Love you all,
Rich

Just giving this thread a bump to the top of the heap, as it seems to be one of the trending topics right now, sadly. I hope the best for all concerned, and if it is possible for Rich and his family to rebuild, I hope they will find the strength to do it!
