It does seem tempting, thats only $.0000013 a stamp at $150. How huge would that be? and how long to sort through it?

Rod.. Isn't that an actual physical auction? Are online bids entertained? Just curious.

Westchi, you need to take immediate steps to stake out more territory.

If you stake out one shelf, it is immediately obvious when you've expanded to another. If you stake out one room, it is immediately obvious when you've expanded to another. Et cetera, et cetera.

Pick your time well and add some binders, even if they only have a few pages each. Then you buy yourself time to fill out the space. Scale this up as you dare.

My 2d.

Yes, Ram, physical auction, Ace Auctions Perth
you can place bids postally, however.
This auction I showed is actually over, a colleague
in our stamp club purchased the lot.
The winning price was $360 IIRC

The Auctioneer dealer, is ex Stanley Gibbons London
he has some nice material at his auctions.

What I like, is that he posts realised prices
on his website.

My basement studio, where I work is also my stamp room. I recently moved the albums to the shelves beside my computer because I found that every time I put them back on the book shelves across the room, I end up having to go right back and get them again a few minutes later. Not the most efficient set up.
