Buyers of choice stamps can expect that all stamps sold by Rupp Brothers will be properly described. Rupp Brothers' clients are encouraged to become knowledgeable and confident philatelists. Christopher strives to be a competent and forth-coming advisor who guides collectors to build collections of the highest-quality. There is more to assembling a great collection than simply selecting the highest grades. Connoisseurship is required and this skill must be learned. Christopher will guide you become a more thoughtful and selective buyer, helping you learn to differentiate between almost-great stamps and those that really are.

Learning the philatelic characteristics to consider when examining a stamp and how to properly evaluate a potential purchase are essential skills for a philatelist to master. Christopher openly shares his 40-plus years of expertise to help you master these skills.
