I am not doing this as an announcement to buy so please don't put this in another area. I'm just making a comment. A couple years ago you would see the odd Swiss official connected with The League of Nations or The UN. They never seem to show up now unless they are grabbed immediately from the auction site. I know a couple of us keep our eyes open for them but they never seem to show any more - just curious why!

re: An area we never see! Swiss officials!!

Happy working on a few approval books with Switzerland BOB at this very moment. It will include a few officials as well. Not many but still...

re: An area we never see! Swiss officials!!

Thanks Jansimon, I'll keep my eyes peeled for it. I just find it odd they don't show very often since most of the prices are reasonable. I know when they showed a couple years ago I wasn't the only person interested.

Auctions - Approvals
re: An area we never see! Swiss officials!!

I attend a few auctions and seldom see any Swiss Officials and any that do come up results in a bidding frenzy.

re: An area we never see! Swiss officials!!

Thanks Jansimon, I found one UN related official I didn't have and picked up a few of the regular officials for good measure. All in all, a productive day!! I'm still not sure why they don't show up more often. They're usually grossly over priced on E-Bay especially with shipping. I must have a look on Hipstamp later.

I'll check it out Dave. I have none of the set!
The link to your E-Bay store in your member's information doesn't work for me. I'll play around with it tomorrow - bed time now!!!

re: An area we never see! Swiss officials!!

Yes Roy, that's what I want. The problem is that I very rarely want whole sets since I really don't accumulate spares and usually only want a couple from each series. That's what makes picking up so difficult. I really don't want to pick up the entire set for one or two stamps and most sellers hesitate to break up sets. Thanks for the reply!!!
