I can't be the only one with this "problem!" Being a good stamper I have collected a lot of stamps over the years. I have several that I no longer use for various reasons--maybe I'm tired of them or I don't like them or I don't use that particular style any longer. I'd like to weed them to make room for new ones but other than selling on Ebay (which I really don't want to do) how can I dispose of them? I feel guilty throwing them out.
You could donate them to a youth group like Girl Scouts or church young peoples or you could donate them to the recreation program of a nursing home or assisted care home in your area. Peggy
There are lots of groups that will take donations either to use by the group or to sell for fundraising. Look in the classified section of RSM for several listings.
I use rubberstamps as part of my fundraising for breast cancer marathon walks. I used to sell them on EBay but the fees have gone up so much and the last straw was when they started charging for the free listing program that I was using. Now they are in a flea market section of my fundraising website

If anyone is interested in donating rubber stamps,accessories or other craft items for fundraising, let me know. I send outtax receipts for anything donated.Erin-Joi

If I told you that I was walking 30 or 39 miles in 2 days to help women with undetected breast cancer find out early enough to survive, would you support me?
Hi - another idea - check out your local stamp store to see if they would be willing to host a 'used stamp' sale. ours does once a year wit table costs going to local charity - a huge success!!!
I envy you people who have stamp stores who hold "used stamp" sales. If mine did that, I could get rid of a lot of old stamps that I don't use that are taking up space. I can't bring myself to throw them out, and many are unused. Then after I sold them and freed up the space, I'd turn to the stamp store to buy more new ones. Now I hardly ever buy, and when I do, I buy very few. With a used stamp sale, everyone wins - I wish the stamp stores would realize that.
