Cleaning out the rubber stamp stash

September 7, 2008 5:51 AM

Where is a good place to buy and sell used rubber stamps online?

Googling has turned up a few sites, but they don't seem really big or highly-trafficked, you know? I'm looking for the definitive place where hobbyists go to buy and sell rubber stamps, someplace amazon or half.com-like where I can buy and sell my own. Or do I just go the ebay or etsy route? (And I'm not sure if etsy is the place because I didn't MAKE these things, kwim?)

definitely ebay. etsy is a possibility because they have a "supplies" category. personally, i'd go etsy first, then ebay, because etsy lets you have the listing up for 6 months.

I'd say the supplies category of Etsy. Lots of destashing happening there.

I second Etsy. Lots of people buying and selling used stamps. Etsy isn't just for handmade...there are three acceptable categories: handmade, supplies, and vintage (anything over 20 years old).

Seconding Etsy as well. Also found this site: http://www.usedrubberstamps.com/
