There was no Philsensex for February 2008 due to my other preoccupations during all this time. I appreciate very much your emails and phone calls received in this regard although it will not be possible for me to respond to all individually.

I wish to have your comments on this column to improve for the benefit of collectors, dealers and investors.

STAMP WATCH
1. CSIM miniature sheet and 2007 Children's Day miniature sheets are attracting investors!

2. Did you miss high value stamps issued during 1973-80 if so collect!

3. Collect ungummed current definitive stamps if you can!
