    Israel

    Many thanks for the information
    What about the Middle East?
    In Israel there are many small auction houses.
    Jewish people around the world are still collecting some Judaica stamps and covers.
    The Israel philatelic service is not in good shape.

    Ucrania

    Unfortunately, interest in Ukrainian postage stamps of the war era is already declining. I don't see anything strange in this, because one of the reasons I see is the large circulation of the latest issues and politics, because the world is already tired of Ukraine and this war ...

    I now prefer not so much as stamps, but as postage with them that have gone through the actual mail.

    I'm a member of the Tel Aviv philatelic society . Almost half of the members who attend , are of Russian origin , without them there would be attendances of ten members . Auction houses are not a reference for the philatelic activity in the country . There are not very much shops .
    I'm collecting Judaica , only philately . Almost on a pro way .
    The shop of the philatelic services opens only the day of issue of new stamps , and is in Modiin i think .
    50 years ago this service was located at Mugrabi .

    The number of collectors is declining . No youth . You also can see that many stamps are offered below face value . Price have also fallen . Dealers sell stamps today under the price they bought them 20 years or more years ago .

    It seems to me, having followed many auction houses from around the world...that the stamp market has never been stronger. Prices realized are usually higher than estimates. Quality items get premium prices. Had the internet not arrived to make buying and selling much easier to a global market, the picture would be much different.

    yes for rare or very much sought after items . Modern material not . Dealers sell sets now under the price they were bought some 25 years ago .

    I am a collector (I wouldn’t dare name myself a philatelist) of the soviet stamps of a certain period (30s-50s). The sources of my purchase is either Russian boutiques/russian auctions or the actuon houses outside of Russia. It is clear to me that the hobby is aging fast. My kids aren’t interested but they know what my collection may bring them - just in case I warned them not to sell for cheap. In Cyprus where I reside today the hobby is also very quiet although there is one auction house and a number of senior age philatelists. I tried to find good collections for sale in Israel but disappointedly the quality of those wasn’t good while they were priced too high. Bottom line in my view (except for few regions) - the hobby is dead and I simply try to capture the moment and enjoy sorting the remnants of the previously huge history of philately.

    It's wonderful to hear about your passion for collecting Soviet stamps from the 1930s-1950s. Collecting stamps is indeed a unique and historical hobby that allows enthusiasts to connect with the past. While it's true that the hobby may not be as widespread as it once was, there are still dedicated collectors around the world who share your interest.

    Preserving and documenting these stamps is not only a personal enjoyment but also a way to contribute to the historical record. Your dedication to the hobby is admirable, and your collection may hold significant historical and cultural value for future generations.
