Anybody Familiar with Nordfirm??

Regarding their supplies, they are a major philatelic supplies dealer in Europe and the feedback from the Europeans is good. For US, the major complaint is slow customer response.

I didn't realize Nordfrim had a public stamp selling marketplace. Keep in mind that it will be heavy in European customers, which means you will have to deal with high shipping costs, customs/taxes, exchange rates...

If you decide to go that route, please keep us up to date regarding the results.


OK, scratch that. I misunderstood. I guess you would like to buy through their auctions, rather than sell. I rarely buy stamps from overseas other than from England. The shipping costs are atrocious, and the seller has to be willing to send things by "normal" mail. Properly marked mail going through New York is notorious for getting stolen. On the low end budget items, buying from Europe is not cost effective. Most regular buyers from European auctions that I know of, go after the high end or hard to get items, to make it worth the shipping expense/risk.

Personally, I would suggest you exhaust the US/Canadian based auction house options before venturing into the European auctions -- unless of course, you are looking for specialty material.

Best wishes!

Hi Phil.
I look at Nordfrim quite often But prices for lots of stamps are way over the top and shipping is beyond me.

If you are looking good bulk kiloware I have found some very good sellers on ebay who I have bought stamps at auction in 500 gram lots another seller has buy now and I have been very pleased with
