Disciplinary Action

As a service to collectors below is a listing of suspended/reprimanded and expelled American Philatelic Society members published in The American Philatelist since 1995. This list does not include individuals against whom disciplinary action has been taken by other organizations.  Verifying the APS membership status  of an individual before engaging in significant transactions may help to avoid problems. As time permits disciplinary actions from earlier years will be added. Updated as of November 2024
