The internet has made shopping so much easier. You can shop anywhere in the world without worrying about business hours or time zones. You can shop from home, at the office, or while at your kid’s sports practice! The only downside of this convenience, we think, is the interpersonal connection. Knowing who you’re buying from and where your items are coming from allows you to trust the products you are spending your money on.
So, this is who we are:
PE Stamps was founded in 2015 in the basement of James’ family home in Maine. James, a licensed Professional Engineer, was unimpressed by the quality of the stamp products he was purchasing online and decided to put his AutoCAD skills to good use! James has over 20 years of experience in the Engineering field and knows what Engineers are looking for when it comes to their stamps. You want your stamp to be reliable, provide a crisp and clear image and be reasonably priced.
James has spent innumerous evening and weekend hours creating each stamp image in AutoCAD. Stamp images have been created from scratch to accurately meet the requirements of each state’s professional board. Once all the Engineer stamps were created, James moved on to stamp images for other associated professions. We now offer over 350 original stamp designs, all originating in AutoCAD. You never have to doubt the quality or worry about your files being exported from commercial graphic design programs.
In PE Stamps’ early days, James would come home from his full-time engineering job and assemble the stamps ordered that day after his young children went to bed. As PE Stamps grew, he needed more help and his wife Tami joined him in assembling the stamps ordered daily and shipping them out. By 2017 PE Stamps had grown steadily enough that naptimes and evenings were no longer enough time for fulfilling orders and 2 additional family members were brought on board. In 2019 PE Stamps moved into its own professional space with a staff of 6.
Today PE Stamps resides in the town of Westbrook, Maine. Our mission and promise of high-quality stamps with fast turnarounds is still our daily goal. While James is no longer assembling stamps daily, his PE office resides in the same building as PE Stamps’ production staff and he is very much involved in the design work and overseeing the business. Tami now does most of the behind the scenes work for the PE Stamps’ website and maintaining our relationship with the State Boards to ensure our stamp products are accurate. Tami’s sister Amanda oversees the PE Stamps production staff and assists in making sure your orders are made quickly and correctly every time.
We are a small family business but our promise to you is big. High quality, fast and correct stamps every time you order with the personal touch that we find the most important. We always will answer your email or your phone call. We may be an online business, but we hope you feel as important and valued as if you were our neighbor.
