Shortly after 9am, we headed over to my dear friend (STAMPO)'s Las Vegas stamp store (thusly, the VIVA LAS VEGASTAMPS name).... it IS a wee bit tricky to find (being on Sahara and Sahara)... I actually drove past it and had to make a U-turn - even though I KNOW where it is!!.... sigh....
Anyway, we spent well over an hour there.... took lots of pics (so I could share them with all of you and make you jealous).... lol.... I stocked up on his "Miracle Tape" (as I always do when I visit Boss).... by the way, I CALL him Boss - because I WORKED for him for 3 days, years ago (after I retired from the Mirage).... I HAD to quit this fun job though.... at the end of each day, I ended up paying HIM more (for all the goodies I kept buying, while I was supposed to be working), than what he paid ME!!.... if I had stayed any longer, I would be the only person to take on a new job and go bankrupt.... but he was a sweetheart to work for, ladies....
I took so MANY pics of the store, that I will spread them over another 3 emails to follow this one.... will also give you a link to his site, in case you want to browse thru' his 15,000 stamps (and growing).... he MAKES his OWN rubberstamps.... it would be difficult to want an image that he DOESN'T have.... (I know)..... by the way, his main sales are over the Internet (International also).... and, if you prefer - he will sell you just the RUBBER image itself (for 60% of the price of the wood-mounted ones)..... a unique feature, which also keeps shipping costs very reasonable... Poor Ray is kind enough to mount them on a block of wood for me (if I BEG him on bended knee)....
Ok, Boss.... how's THAT for an "off the cuff" sales job???.... lol.... now you owe ME again....
