Default San Diego, CA stamp stores - 2014

Hi!
I am going to San Diego this week and wondered if anyone can give me a list of good stamp stores.

This thread from January is still current with the exception of Stamping Details in Poway. The owner decided to retire & closed the store.

To update the list in the other post a bit, Ever After Scrapbooks in Vista closed June 21st, a sad day since I have been a customer since they opened in 1999. The other ones are still open, for now.

Oh dear! I didn't realize that Ever After Scrapbooks had closed. They had just moved to that location not that long ago. I do realize that we are still lucky to have so many stores within the county, but we have lost quite a few in the past 2 - 3 years. I have backed off & will not go to Paper Tales again since the big fuss over the store & a stamp designer both publicly chastising on a customer on Facebook & another message board. The customer had bought some limited edition stamps & then listed them to re-sell which the store owner found objectionable. I prefer my stamp buying to be drama free.

just curious but, for anyone who lives in San Diego or around there are any of these stores close to the MCRD? (Marine Corp Recruit Depot I think its street address is on Midway ave)

Paper Tales is very close to MCRD - not easy walking because of the traffic, but within a mile to a mile & a half. The Midway area isn't one I would feel comfortable walking around in after dark. If you have any questions about San Diego - you are welcome to pm me. I've lived here over 50 years & love this place so much!

There's plenty of parking at Paper Tales. It's in a strip mall with many other stores.
