The Mystic Album is a great deal for collectors of US stamps. Enjoy. I use the US Mystic Album myself.
Dusty,
Are there some particular years or range of Scott numbers where you have a have a lot of blanks? If so send me a PM with your address and I'll be glad to send along whatever extras I might have.

Yo Dusty, now that you're on their mailing list get ready for two years of unwanted and unsolicited packets of stamps showing up on a very regular basis. All things considered, Mystic does a good job at what they do. You'll enjoy the service.

Hi Mikey and ernienjax.
Yes, read about that habit of Mystic sending unwanted stamps. I bought the album on Ebay, so my payment or card info are not with them. I though did sign up for their "free" catalog and received it with "totally free" stamp pack and a return envelope.
I like the catalog, and the albums they offer are quite ok, but its hard to justify paying many times over market price for some of their stamps, the more expensive ones in particular. Will probably buy few cheaper ones + the new type of heirloom albums at some stage as a token of appreciation for the catalog.

Mystic seems to spend a lot in marketing and it shows up in their stamp prices. The Heirloom album is an excellent but value as said you get on their mailing list and you get regular mailings (got one in yesterday).
I have received 5 2018 catalogs this year and finally asked to be removed. I do not mind them but seems like they are wasting their money. If they would reduced prices, they may actually have more sales from regular collectors. Given Mystic has sponsored many of the new APS members due to their outreach so some of it is working.
yes Angore, I think the Heirloom is a great value. Tomorrow the small envelope with the stamps they sent is going to leave Thailand with a written note, saying I appreciate their catalog, I will be buying the odd stamps and possibly the flag ship Heirloom album as well..... but ONLY if I never again see these envelopes with unwanted stamps
I too received approvals and after I returned the first group they did not send them again.

Been collecting stamps (seriously) for the past year or so, after a near 30 year break. Got interested in US stamps couple of months ago and decided to buy a Mystic stamp album on Ebay. It arrived in Thailand this afternoon and enjoying seeing the stamps and reading the info on the side. Got 2 more envelopes with US stamps also. Going to enjoy the rest of the week sifting through them.
