Stamp Collecting Tips

Welcome to our page on stamp collecting tips.

***Tip One***

  Try to buy all Fine condition used Queen Elizabeth high value definitive stamps, ie,  2/6, 5/-,  10/- and £1 . 

Fine used high value stamps are very hard to find, most were only used on parcels and the majority of these have been ruined with heavy cancellations.  We feel that the catalogue price's do not reflect the rarity of these stamps, our recommenation is to Buy! Buy! Buy!  NOW.

The Reason Not To Buy Mint

Many people put aside large amounts of mint high value stamps in the 50's and 60's for investment.   There was no risk involved as they  could always cash them in at the local post office and get their money back.   Many more stamps were hidden away and forgotten,  some of those hoards are still to be found today and when they eventually find their way onto the market (as they will),  they could bring the prices down of mint high value stamps considerably.

***Tip Two***

Buy The Very Best

When You are looking to buy stamps for your collection, or if you are thinking about investing in Commonwealth stamps, always buy the very best you can afford.  Often when I'm at stamp shows and auctions I see people looking at the cheaper stamps!  don't,  its always much better to buy two good stamps than ten cheap ones,  in the long run quality counts.
