Glen Stephens AKA 'The Sheriff' or 'Global Admin' on his Stampboards site is a truly awful individual. He uses his forum to post derogatory comments to innocent forum members. He is a narcissist and a bully. He is arrogant and derisory and I would advise ANYBODY even considering doing business with this man to take your money elsewhere. He will edit your profile, edit your posts, and refuse to delete personal information. He is a bully, and has no place in the stamp community. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

The admin has a couple accounts, including admin, Glenstephens, global admin etc. He keeps dumping all his trash in the selling stamp board asking for ridiculous prices - any one daring to enlighten the deceived buyers will be permanently banned!

When disaster strikes, it generally doesn't take too long to find out how much of a community actually exists. After the photobucket debacle, it became clear how many of stampboards *******+ members stepped up to be counted in their community.

78 people are adding imgur images to threads. Three of those 78 are Glen Stephens. So, 76 out of *******+ members. There's the stampboards community right there.

Notice also how the sales threads are no longer visible from the front page. Maybe they only show if you are signed in?

Corrupt
April 16, 2024
Updated review

Bullying members who know nothing about stamps and hunt in packs. Been collecting stamps for years from reputable places and their comments and thoughts are off the mark. All quick to judge. Avoid and dont get sucked in. The administrators' and most comments come back from dealers trying to compare quality to their own trash..

He abuses and insults people on the forum run by him and tries to portray that he is some big gun in philately who is a know-all. When people argues with him, he edits people's messages to suit his agenda and bans them when he is losing in an argument. He shamelessly promotes his own site selling substandard stamps and abuses people who buys from ebay or other sources. I would stay a mile away from this guy who has little to no integrity.

Repulsive twit
March 30, 2018

If you think this board is there to offer stamp collectors items at the best deals, think again. Post a deal that competes with one offered by its self-glorified buffoon-in-charge, and your post is deleted.

The self-acclaimed stamp guru once offered his "stamp dry books" claiming his prices were the best. But they weren't. They were up on ebay for less. A mention of this was instantly deleted so the buffoon could monopolize the thread with his overpriced wares.

Clearly, he's not interested in collectors getting the best deals, he's just interested in the fastest way of getting their money into his pocket.

This, combined with his nasty condescending personality can make it a very unpleasant place. Don't try to argue with him, your post gets deleted.

Recently Banned
August 3, 2018

As much as there is good information on this board, if you post something that doesn't set well with the owner of this board, you WILL get very hostile responses back from him. If you don't change things to his way, you will get banned. This board has some good people in it, just not enough to make it worth staying.

Arrogant beyond words
January 6, 2017

I recently joined this board and posted a comment and request for information. According to the administrator, a Mr Glenn Stephens, i didnt follow the correct procedures and my post was removed.No problem with that, it was just the arrogant way he wrote... no customer service or people skills whatsoever. I then found this site and saw other people had the same experience, so I wrote to Stampboards, referencing this site. Surprise, surprise... I have now been permanently blocked from Stampboards.
What a way to run a forum!

I made the mistake of thinking this is a professional and properly run site... it isn't!. Rude and offensive remarks, aggressive and intimidating behaviour, I stopped visiting very quickly. I only gave 1 star as I couldn't give zero.
My advice is don't bother!
