Welcome to the NTSC Swap Shop

We mail out 100 different large stamps, which are larger than the standard Canadian definitive, such as QEII or caricatures,. We also have circuits for small stamps, of which 150–200 are mailed out at a time.

The first recipient restores the lot to the initial amount after taking what he/she liked. The next person on the list of four names receives it after that. So it's stamp approval meeting blind swap.

Currently we have circuits for world-wide, world-wide before 1970, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Br. Commonwealth, Canada, Caribbean, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Scandinavia, USA, and Topicals.  There are no “Bluenose” or “Beaver” in the mailings. The stamps tend to be “common”, of low value.

These may be still missing in somebody's collection, but they are unlikely to be found in any trader's inventory. Here is the opportunity to pick the ones needed without having to buy an accumulation – or spend any money, except for postage. It is also great for someone starting out a specific country collection.
