According to observation of the stamp dealers on Kuling Street, some people just are in for the short haul, carrying a briefcase up and down Kuling Street; the briefcase either is full of stamps or cash. There are even people who turn over huge sums of cash to dealers to "reserve" stamps that haven't even been issued yet.
根據牯嶺街郵商觀察透露，有些人專門跑短線，手提公事包在牯嶺街遊走，公事包內不是郵票就是鈔票；還有人甚至將大筆資金交付郵商「預約」尚未發行的郵票。
