Anyone here collect stamps?

pastmyshades · 02-14-2013, 04:00 PM

I've come across about 10,000 stamps fro 1870-1975 from all different countries. Have NO idea what they are worth but would like some help if anybody has any knowledge on the subject...

Here is about .00001% of the collection

a sampling isn't going to do anything if you want a value. You have to post everything, or better yet, go visit a stamp shop...

Check ebay for sold items matching your stamps...

Do you have any idea how hard it would be to find them on eBay for someone who doesn't know stamps?

It's not like cards where it has a company, product, ear, and players name on it, he would have no idea where to start that search

Yups I know. Therefore my middle suggestion. Find a store you can walk into (or online that you can mail the lot to). Get recommendations, look at reviews, join some forums so you don't get stiffed.
