West*Quest*Lobby Kiosk:
Stamps from this kiosk can be classified into 3 categories: eBay sales, private sales and my personal collection. eBay
sales and private sales begain in November 2002. I am compiling a listing of purchasess from my credit card statements.
I am also reviewing sellers e-mails and eBay history to assist in the this task.
Sales can be separated into individual sheets, errors, sets, and covers. As for covers, several personal covers were
made (this incldues: China, Germany, Belgium, US cities....) and sent through the USPS..
As for my private collection, I have been collecting monthly short sets along with other interesting purchases.
I have collected short sets from July 2002 through August 2003 (with the exception of September 2002). In September 2002,
I made several wrong assumptions and stop making purchases. However, in following month I restarted this
monthly purchasing program. This means that September 2002 dated sheets (from the Baltimore Kiosk) may not exist.
Hayward Kiosk:
An individual on eBay randomly sold Hayward Kiosk 10-stamp sheets. This was an individual new to stamp collecting
and being a stamp seller (asked my seller for advise on shipping the sheets and cost for shipping). I believe this person
worked for Neopost. Sales lasted less than a month and the individual disappeared from eBay.
Hewitt 1 Kiosk:
I have not seen personally seen any sheet from this location. The location of Kiosk is rumored to be located at a Hewitt
Associates building, hence, the Hewitt designation.
Hewitt 2 Kiosk:
I received this single sheet as a gift from a fellow collector.
USPS Rosslynn Kiosk:
I traded Baltimore sheets for USPS Rosslynn sheets with an individual (who had access or knew someone
with access to the USPS Rosslynn kiosk). I have wondered in and arround the Rosslyn post office and in the city of Rosslyn
with no results. The drive from the Baltimore Kiosk to the City of Rosslyn is about 1 hour.
Summary:
Collectors and individuals who were aware the location of kiosks kept them secret. I personally did not reveal the location
of the Baltimore kiosk. I had great times with my wife searching for the USPS Rosslyn kiosk (when 4-stamp and 10-stamps
were being dispensed). During the 4-stamp period we even drove and stood in front of the Neopost Engineering Office
in Warrenton, Virginia - within days Neopost removed this address from its website.).
