My order that according to tracking was accepted in the mail system in Croatia on Sept 11th finally arrived at my PO box today.
Talking about snail mail at its best!

So weird. They must have just messed up and sent me 30 uncancelled Croatia ones since they are all in wrappers, even tho I only ordered 5 of each!

I still don't open them, into the stamp box they go with all my cs1's/FDC's, cs2's etc etc! 

My on-chain cs2 redeemed stamps came but got completely soaked/trashed in the mail so I sent them back. Heard they may not accept them but whatever, I'm the damn customer aren't I?  Time will tell....

ok got my first 2 stamps today

both were in plastic "bags" one was sealed the other was not. the one that was not sealed had a cancelled stamp - I had to crop out the seed phrase though. hope you understand

image is simply to show how the "cancelled" stamps appear.



based on the serial number it is a tier 4 - train. The second one I went ahead and opened - it was also a tier 4 - train.

I have a 12 more coming that just actually hit New York.

my hope is to get one of each - not sure how realistic that is though :/

not too bad though ordered 10 got 30. Bonus. I might have my first batch this week. second batch is still floating in the ether.

Um... I have about 30 of these. For some reason I ordered 5 canceled and 5 not canceled. They sent me a sealed pack of 10. then another strip of 10 sealed, but not bagged.  

So yeah... Aren't they always unopened? What do you mean by cover? FDC? I see those on ebay but not for sale anywhere else.

I bought the Croatian Post 2020. rare Crypto Stamp UNOPENED COVER. What you think what will be inside. I really like to have a drone stamp.

speak of the devil - the first one just hit NY apparently last night

I hope so mate ! Seriously I could have walked there and back in the time they arrived !
Or in fact got a Van, Train , sent a drone ....... lol 

nice! maybe my orders will show up soon.

Finally - 6 and 1/2 weeks later !
And ..... it’s a van !

Pretty good news for all CS2 Doge holders. The Doge stamp is now officially sold out! As expected the Doge motif was by far the most popular one. I am a little bit surprised that there are still more than 1400 pieces of every other animal available, but let's see what happens when the ETH gas fees drop further.

If you're up for a gamble, it's still possible to buy unredeemed presale Doge stamps on market places like Opensea. You might get lucky and draw a super rare red presale Doge's of which only 17 pieces are available (14x 6-digit, 3x 5-digit; click here for full list). On the other hand the price for the unredeemed presale Doge's is already pretty high (currently about ~20$). No clue, if it's worth a try, but I might give it shot.

I would be tempted to buy more CS2 if I knew I could for sure get a red set lol - I have all the others just zero reds - but I know that is the hardest set to get.

also if anyone wants, I have 12 CS physical stamps that are extra - open to offers, not looking for much above face value. It's 3 sets of each animal

1st set is an unopened black set.
2nd set that was opened (only to be scanned to see what they were)
3rd set has not even been removed from the wax paper the post office wrapped the set into.

none of them have been redeemed for their online counterpart.

Unfortunately it looks like basically no one is interested in the Croatian Crypto Stamps. The 500 onchain stamps were sold out pretty fast, but the interest in the 99.500 regular stamps is basically non-existent. With still almost 90K stamps left, I doubt all pieces will ever be sold at all. In addition to that, the Croatian stamps are sold for a much lower price on secondary markets like eBay compared to the Austrian Crypto Stamps (e.g. the highest price for a drone on eBay was about 210€).

So all in all, if you're a collector it's nice to have a few Croatian stamps (I have about 10~), but if you want to buy them for an investment, I would definitely go with the Austrian stamps (but like always DYOR!).

Concerning the CS2 there are still several thousand stamps available at the onchain shop. On October 5th the Austrian Post changed their dynamic fee policy and about 5000 stamps are still available for 7€ + transaction costs (for a detailed overview, please check the screenshot below). With ETH-network costs currently going down (about 30 GWEI at night) buying a few stamps gets affordable again. Before October 5th, the prices were about 15-20€ per stamp + high transaction costs of usually about 100+ GWEI. To buy a stamp in the onchain shop the only things you need is a Metamask account and a corresponding amount of ETH. A maximum of ten stamps can be purchased per transaction.

The following stamps are still available:

• Honey Badger: 1512
• Llama: 1469
• Panda: 1452
• Doge: 381

If gas prices continue to fall, the quantities are likely to be sold out fairly quickly. After purchasing a stamp in the onchain shop, the corresponding NFT will be transferred to your collection (any color from black to red is possible). In your collection, you then have the option to initiate the shipment of the physical twin to a address of your choice.

Just been on line now - 88,806 stamps left !

I will share my packing labels when/if they arrive. So far every first day of issue stamps I have ordered have been delayed. Though my Austrian ones eventually showed up but not before they sent replacements and refunded me.

Yeah that's how mine looked but 5 apiece. They did arrive faster than I thought - They also cleared customs fairly fast, maybe I was just lucky as we know ISC NY likes to just sit on shit for days lol...

I was more interested in the packing slips - Here is mine for 10 stamps, 5 canceled, 5 not (Apparently, until I open them later lol):




Awesome to know, thanks Bavi, hope you are well.

Edit - I've seen some first day issues on Ebay the other day, but not checked this weekend.

I received the croatia stamps already. Looks like there is no real second market for them as they haven’t implemented a way to hide the private key. Once you take the stamp out of its plastic bag, which you need to do to check if you have a train/boat/drone..., you get to see the private key right away. It’s also quite a hastle to get the nft out, as you first need to send ether to the address from the stamp in order to get the nft out. It’s not as convenient as the austrian stamps, that’s for sure.

I received two things for the order I placed on opening day.
this is the first - pretty much just the order confirmation. Which does say 1 regular and 1 cancelled.


this is the second - with the tracking number, I don't see anything that says what is being shipped.


and this is what I get when I do the tracking:

Awesome, thanks. Did your shipping note say 4 stamps total, not like 2 canceled and 2 regulars? Just curious. I guess I'll have to open them and hope I get some cool ones.

I bought 2 and 2 and they came in the same package. The regular ones are in plastic pouches with both sides intact. The cancelled stamps have the one edge of the pouch peeled off. It's an ugly black circle on the cancelled ones. Definitely liked the aesthetics of the red stamp on the unicorns better.
