Just received these in the mail,brought them off Wensy for $20 bucks all but the #24 that was $15.00,I don't usually chase these but for that price it was too good to let go oh I was just outbid for another lot of revenues (officials) with a #119 in it the lot went for $10.00 or $12.00 still I'm laughing.   |

Harry, not bad ! There are deals to be found if you do the leg work..the people on Wensy are either stamp collector and or SMALL TIME or should I say part time dealers..their shipping charges are usually better than the larger internet stamp outlets as many of them do not take paypal !! |

Fantastic Purchase of some nice stamps!
FYI: These are Officials NOT Revenues. Most Serious Official collectors get offended if you call them revenues(Revenues are beneath them). And some Revenue Collectors(NOT Me) would say your ignorant(I know you are not). Don't laugh I have truly seen this! We Collectors can be a snobbish bunch!
In My opinion, Mistakes are just new opportunities to learn!

No problem! I think we have all done that!
My thinking is that some of the less knowledgeable among us might call them Rev's. Then get a tongue lashing(instead of an explanation) from another inconsiderate Collector or Dealer. |

Yes that's a good point Eric I also think It doesn't matter how much I know I'll always be a learning layman in this hobby  . P.S. I went through the post's and put the officials in brackets.  |

now swinging a detector that's when you meditate 
I'll have to stop and think next time though It's a worry as when I stop to think I may forget what I stopped to think about or why I ever stopped at all in the first place 
.
