Thanks for the feedback I appreciate all the price break-down knowledge and how the selling and mailing process works. But I want to make it very clear I am not making a complaint or going after any seller - just curious!
-
I have only read about one seller that stated “shipping was only done through registered mail” and a few out of state that had a high price. But why so much for “a one stamp purchase?”
-
Sorry for getting back to you Ray and thanks for the info. Yes, I’ve also starting collecting Big Blue just a few years ago and with the guidance of the Big Blue site I am really enjoying the adventure. I have been finding most of my stamps on HS …

I have used both clear and black background Scott mounts - and I favor the black. I feel the pricing can get out of sight especially if you need to mount an odd sized stamp.
-
Thanks George for your input. Scott, I’m referencing WW from 1840-1940 collecting and if by chance you haven’t seen the website “Big Blue” check it out - it’s “amazing” filled with fantastic information collecting stamps from the period 1840-1940.

Any response from the seller?
-
Scott - thanks for the response and back history re Ronsonol.
-
Shawn what a great attitude toward developing your store - wish you great success. Yes, sometimes mistakes happen on both sides of the line but I still feel that if there were some kind of conditions, rules posted more aggressively (e.g. legal, swi…

I was curious if any of the following legal major statutory provisions as they apply to dealers/buyers/sellers or owning, trading, etc. stamps has every been introduced on HS: Title 18, United States Code, Sections: 8, 15, 471, 472, 478, 480…

Thanks Scott and others for your suggestion(s) - I appreciate it. Any takes on using baseball card container boxes (fits #2 glassines nicely?)
-
I forgot to mention that I use "acid-free and lignin-free" cards for inserts, therefore, the stamp glue is not resting on the plastic.
-
Thanks Wayne for your comment. Yes, the glassine can get expensive but its the cost of postage that I find high. I purchase the plastics for $3.00 (100 ct.) no shipping needed. Read somewhere that using plastic containers was bad because the stam…

Geez - I made a mistake!

What does SAN stand for?

Sorry, should have been more specific! I’ve been purchasing WW stamps (1840-1940) from HipStamp, shows, feeder albums, etc. but I need to acquire more stamps in bulk. Is purchasing WW stamp bulks ever render stamps in this time frame or will I jus…
-
The only reason that might deter me away from mounting, which all my collections are, is that I would have to “custom” cut the stamp mounts - not cost so much as time!

Thanks John Maloney - Yes, I did purchase the Cuban stamps from Mystic. I also have purchased several used Cuban stamps from other dealers as well, and I enjoy them more than the Mystic stamps. If I knew that the Cuban stamps from Mystic were CTOs…
-
Should sellers disclose to the buyer that they are purchasing CTO stamps?
-
Thanks - I understand when it relates to the sample that you’ve sent as a sample, but what about a single stamp? Also, “why one would try to falsify a stamps status” isn’t something that I would even consider but if it has happened by someone tryin…

What is PayPal charging for fees?
-
Great advice - hope others read your comments about using the word “sets” in selling. I will be targeting US buyers only and presenting “singles” and “lot” doubles that I have acquired. Also, stamps that are purchased will be clean (no tears, fol…
-
Jerry - I’ll keep those dates noted - also, nice set of stamps!
-
Interesting note regarding the Iran and Austria revenues - any chance you have the years that I should watch out for? I agree that it is nice to receive a used stamp without hing remnants only if it was removed properly by the seller. I have recei…
-
Good advice - yes I am very cautious in hinge removable especially if the hinge doesn’t budge easily.

What do you think would happen to a graded 9 Mickey Mantel baseball card if someone happened to place his initials on the back of the card? Of course the value would drop - really drop. So, shouldn’t the value of a stamp be in the same criteria as…
-
The above responses have been more than I imagined - but, I have read more than once regarding “expert marks” on the back of stamps. Who qualifies as an expert? Just because you have deep pockets to buy stamps IMO dosen’t qualify you as an expert.…
