I just got my first ever RSM magazine and I've got little post-its out of every other page -- help me. I'm kind of floundering on where to go from here as a new vendor on the Web. I've found so many bases are covered that I'm thinking of re-vamping my site and offering totally different things. Since I can buy wholesale and can offer things at a discount, won't YOU all tell me what you would like me to carry? Or am I a redundant service out here!! So far I've had terrific responses on the ANM stamps (Pooh, Mary E. & Laurel B.). I've also just received my catalogue from Stamp Zia -- amazing designs (and she offers those clear mounts if you want). She has a really cool web site for her designs if you're interested. You can see her graphic arts background in her designs. FYI she's at: http://www.stampzia.com I love sayings/greetings -- might just have to check out Penguin.

We'll send you PLENTY to keep you busy (although Polymer, i believe, refers to the clear rubber process that is more suitable to business stamps and doesn't take certain art stamp inks -- or our unusual brand of punishment -- very well).

I just wanted to get a quick update from all of you as to whether you want to continue with the RR that you are in at the present time. SInce I didn't specify any amount of time that the rounds would continue for, I though it best to just keep it going as long for as you all are interested. So, What I need here is input---Would each of you please email me and let me know if you want to to continue? Anyone who wants to drop out, please feel free to say so. The success of the RR depends on the players-ANd I don't expect you to conitue if you eally dont want to, ok? I know sometimes things come up that you need to drop out of things or just need a break. What I'm trying to do here is just get a feel for how everyone feels about it continuing on. ALso, if some of you have a specific amount of time you want to stay in, that-s okay, too-Just let me know. I just wanted to touch base with everyone periodically and see how things are going. Also, I have noticed in a few of the robins, people are forgeting to take out their old dies once they have made one complete round. Each time you get the RR, take out any dies you had put in the round before---If they have made it back to you without anyone taking them, then obviously the group is not interested in those particular dies.....So You need to take them out and replace them with new ones. Its not fun for any of us to have to look at the same dies over and over again-Nor is it worth the postage to do that-ANd it defeats the whole purpose of the RR, which is to continurally have the opportunity to see and take new dies and pass on the ones you dontwant. So please, players, REMEMBER TO REPLACE YOUR OLD DIES WITH NEW ONES EACH ROUND! (Gee, am I long-winded today, or what?!) NOw that I have finaly said everyhting I think I need to pass on, I ask that you please take the time to reply to this and let me know if you are planning to continue, rop out, etc? I really want you rinput and it will help make the succes of out RR! Thanks!
