What is Stamp Kiloware?





It´s said that stamp collectors live a longer life. We're not sure about that, but stamp kiloware is definitely a pleasure & can stimulate the brain.



Kiloware consists of used stamps on paper that have been cut intact from envelope corners and parcels. Kiloware is usually sold by weight (ounce, pound, gram or kilogram) and can include mixed stamps of all types, including commemorative stamps, definitive stamps, airmail stamps, special stamps (such as Love Stamps and Christmas Stamps for US kiloware) and sometimes back of the book stamps. Or kiloware can consist of only stamps of a single one of these types. And kiloware can be limited to the stamps of a single country - such as a US kiloware mixture - or it can be a group of countries, such as Europe, Scandinavia or Benelux, for example. And worldwide kiloware is also available. But no matter what type you buy, kiloware mixtures are a joy to sort through, and you never know what you'll find. If you collect used stamps, kiloware can be an inexpensive source of stamps for your collection.
