You can only gift to a friend by looking at their card, and they can only give to you AFTER you accept them. Then they are able to look at your card. I'm not sure where your stamps would have gone but let's get you some more!

May I give you some advice......

Here is what the next couple levels will require (from AEGram's Total Game Cost) in coin and in stamps:

L 22 – 35,200 – 45 wh, 32 bl, 23 gr, 8 br 

L 23 – 38,550 – 35 wh, 15 bl, 6 gr 7 br 

While you will be able to get some things you need from your wish list,  you can't get away from having to do the rounds, do the rounds, do the rounds, to get you what you'll need. 

It has been suggested by others that you should work towards having 20 of each stamp in your inventory, then work up to 50.  The game tends to be stingy when you need something.  If you need to use a certain stamp for crafting, then make sure you have more than 20 of those stamps.  Example:  if it something requires 3 white stamps, then make sure you have 23 white stamps so that you don't fall below your 20.

This game can try your patience, but you have to remember that it is a marathon not a sprint.  Also, do the rounds, do the round, do the rounds...…...……………..

Keep stormin' the castle.

Thank you. I will keep this. What does wh, bl, gr and br stand for? 

I'm sorry. You are speaking of number of coins and how many of each of the colors of stamps, correct?

There are the colors of the stamps...…………...white (plain), blue (unusual), green (rare) and brown (unique).

And yes, the number of coins.

Here is the discussion I got the info from:

My goodness. This makes soap opera fanatics look like amateurs. Thank you for the link. What type of questions do I need to ask to bring up these threads. I don't know how to word my questions to get a response to what many others have already ask.

On the left hand side of the screen there is a Folder titled Tip, Tricks, Guides and Advice.  There should be a discussion showing called Complete Index-Tips, Trick and Guides.  If you click on it it will take you to a page that has many tip pages (especially the MC Game Guide).

Never be afraid to ask a question, even if it might have been asked before, there are more than enough people here that are willing to help.  

As far as searching for something, if you click on the magnifying glass with the + sign (next to the New Topic button) it will take you to a search box.  Try typing in a word(s) and then hit Search.  Results (up to 200) will show up on the left hand side).

Back to your original post..

Skull Pete. Did you finish his quest? Could be why you don't show the stamps in your inventory, because he took them.

I know, sounds silly, but I have done the same thing with Spring cakes.

You should keep at least 1 of the stamps on your wishlist. As you have found out, they are hard to come by and get used up fast.

Jane, I can send you unique stamps. I dont need anything in return.

I'll send you an invite.
