Buy Rubber Stamps

Where to start ? When looking for rubber stamps, it is a complex question. There are just so many different variations and types of Rubber Stamps to choose from.

First you have the "purpose of the label". Is it for personal use (identify personal property, return address, art stamps etc.. or for business use return address, Letterheads, On the back of checks or money orders etc.

Then you need to know what stamp type suits you best, wooden/plastic handle; self inking; pre-inked, which will be determined by size and nature of the label you need

After all that, you then need to decide if you would like to order online, by mail order, by phone or fax, or if you would like to go into a store to order !

Buying stamps online has become the most popular way to order. And it's so easy..... You get to choose type of stamp (i) wooden handle (ii) self inking (iii) pre-inked. You choose the size of the stamp. You then choose a layout, and finally specify the text, graphics, fonts, size, alignment. Once you're happy, your stamp is made and sent to you.

Many stamp manufacturers have in-stock pre-made stamps which can be ordered online or by mail order, phone or fax. Typically a custom/personalized label will be best ordered thru a stamp maker who can show you a proof or electronic representation of how the stamp will look.

Some stamps, however, require a lot more detailed work, such as fine-art creations. In this case you will need to send artwork to a stamp maker or even make a visit. Art stamps can be a tedious job and they take time.

So it's really a case of 'horses for courses'. The type of stamp you need will help determine exactly how/where you buy rubber stamps.
