Message Other Stamp and Postcard Collectors

Found the stamp you’ve been hunting on someone’s profile? Send them a message about that exact stamp, right inside Stamp Atlas. Prefer email or social media? Add your own contact details to your profile instead.

What you get

Messages about a specific stamp

Start a conversation from a stamp or postcard listing, so both of you can see exactly what you’re talking about.

Private until you choose

Your email address stays hidden. Share your postal address or other details only when you’ve agreed a swap.

Or use your own contact details

Prefer email, a club website or social media? Add the contact details you’re happy to share to your public profile.

Safe by design

Block or report anyone, and choose who can message you — everyone, collectors you’ve swapped with or nobody.

How it works

  1. 1

    Find a stamp or postcard

    Browse a collector’s profile or their swap and sale lists.

  2. 2

    Send a message

    Ask a question, suggest a swap or make an offer.

  3. 3

    Agree and log it

    Settle the details and track the swap in your swap log.

Questions

Do I have to use built-in messages?
No. You can turn messages off and show your own contact details instead — or offer both and let collectors choose.
Can I stop unwanted messages?
Yes. Choose who can message you, and block or report anyone who isn’t trading in good faith.
Will Stamp Atlas read my messages?
Messages are private between you and the other collector. We only review a conversation if one of you reports it.
