Travel the World of Postage Stamps - International Stamp Exhibition CAPEX '87, Toronto, Canada - Eurasian Hoopoe (Upupa epops) - Cambodia 1987 - Michel Cambodia 868 - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

Exhibitions of postage stamps, such as the one that took place in 1087 in Canada in the city of Toronto and called CAPEX '87, is an important event in the world of philately.

As in any market, there are two players. philatelists, as a buyer, strive to buy up the maximum circulation of postage stamps, and publishing houses, countries participating in the exhibition, try to sell these postage stamps much more expensive than their face value.

At such exhibitions, you can see freshly released postage stamps, the price of which is 3-4 times higher than their face value.

If there are those who acquire them for such a high price, then, having thought logically, you can add up in your mind the true cost of the postage stamps that. today, they are cheaper than dirt.
