Used stamps exchanges.

Dear stamp lovers,

I'm an advanced thematic collector, meanwhile "in the business" for more than 30 years ... and therefore interested only in recent commemorative stamp issues. In other words: All the "common" older stamps I've held in my hand dozens of times ...

You certainly give me the greatest pleasure with a motley, surprising mix of interesting, exciting motif stamps from as many different countries as possible.

My preferences:
- stamps from the period 1990-2023
- wet-adhesive, postally used commemorative stamps (i.e. they should really have been used only for postal purposes)
- interesting, exciting, unusual, just-not-everyday motifs
- basically all countries worldwide, but of course particularly hard-to-get states (overseas, island states, microstates ...)

What I can't use:
- mint/MNH, self-adhesive or CTO stamps
- stamp issued before 1990
- definitive stamps
- any material that was produced exclusively for collectors' purposes or the philatelic market (in Germany we call that "Mache")
- cinderellas, fantasy states, fake issues, bulk stuff
- stamps from countries with dubious issuing policies (Japan, Australia, Eastern Europe until 1990, France since 2010 etc.)

And what should be a matter of course for every serious stamp collector: Please frank your letter cleanly with one (or even more) current commemorative stamp issues from your country - I would really appreciate that! :-)

Thanks very much!

Best, Lutz
