My "New" #226, #183, #205 & F1

My wonderful wife bought these for me this week along with some coins. She said she got 'em all for right around $3.00. Does that sound like an OK deal?
I guess it don't matter much because I really like and needed them too so all-in-all I'm a happy stamper.

Also...#225 [#223], #336 & #413

Happen to have a 2009 Scott's right in front of me. That 10c green Webster is beautifully centered and has a catalogue value of $3.75, so the rest is gravy.
Can you have her talk to my wife?

Since I'm at the well, here are the other values (using your SC#s - btw your 225 is actually 223)
183 - $3.25
205 - $10.00
223 - $4.00
336 - 6.50
413 - $22.50
F1 - $10.00

I'll let you judge regarding condition.
All in all I'd say she did pretty well for you. Again, can she call her?

Even if you value these most conservatively (i.e. using the 2011 Scott Specialized Catalog Value by Grade) and value all of the above stamps in only VG or F or F-VF condition because of centering, heavy cancels, etc. (and if they rate a better condition, the prices go up accordingly) the 2011 values are:

183 in VG condition: $1.20 | in F condition: $2.40 | in F-VF condition: $ 3.50
205 in VG condition: $3.00 | in F condition: $5.50 | in F-VF condition: $ 8.25
223 in VG condition: $1.00 | in F condition: $1.80 | in F-VF condition: $ 3.10
336 in VG condition: $1.60 | in F condition: $3.20 | in F-VF condition: $ 4.70
413 in VG condition: $5.00 | in F condition: $8.25 | in F-VF condition: $16.50
F-1 in VG condition: $2.50 | in F condition: $4.50 | in F-VF condition: $ 7.75

So if all of the above stamps were acquired at $3, yet in VG condition, the SCV is $14.30, then the purchase was 21% of catalog;
In F condition, the SCV is $17.75, which would make the purchase 17% of catalog;
In F-VF condition, the SCV is $32.05, which would make the purchase 9.4% of catalog.

So basically, no matter how good or bad you rate the stamps, the purchase was a good deal!

Sweet! She done better than I would have and she don't even collect stamps! I did give her a wish list for christmass to cart around with her so that's how she knew. Someone was selling some old Jamestown Stamp stuff at a yard sale and she made an offer. Thank you for all the info I'm very grateful. I just now got them in my vario pages and all are sound, no thins or tears so I'm pretty happy to get some of the banknotes anyways. They are most certainly a work in progress. Meanwhile I'm trying to track down #325, #327, #330 and most of that page's sets will be done! whoot! (minus 311-313 of course)

ILS... be sure about your ID of some of those stamp in the 100-200 numbers range, there are 4 or 5 issues in that era where they used the same image.

ILS!
How does one talk ones wife into buying stamps for them? All mine does is grumble whenever the "S" word is mentioned.

"S" as in "Seal"?

ILS, first stamp in second scan (5 cent Grant) is a Bureau print. It is either 255 (unwatermarked) or 270 (wmk 191).

Yes I seen that after jamesw's post. I think I done a pretty good job Identifying these.
@ Seal- I don't know what to tell you brother..lol
@ Stampvirgin - I'm positive the rest are correct and thank you for the heads up.
@ Russ - I re-checked it and 255 no watermark. That's what I have jotted on the back of card so that was most likely a typo in my second post.

Most of these came in those display cards w/ mylar fronts from Kenmore so marked on back of it.
