I've recent;y started to catelogue my British stamps, and thought it would be nice to add the 90ish minisheets to the collection too..some of them look really attractive in my opinion.

I was just wondering (before I go rampaging through ebay)what sort of percentage of CV do you look/hope to pay for minisheets ?

If I really like any mint philatelic item, I will go to 68% of Stanley Gibbons price.
That is what 'I' am prepared to pay for something I like.
It is of course a personal thing.

I agree it's down to the individual, I just really wanted a ballpark figure so I didnt start paying 'over the odds'

68% of Stanley gibbons for mint
25% for used, though this is trickier as you have to consider the quality of the cancel.
These are the 'most' you should pay
50% for mint
10% for used and you will be doing fine

I am a world wide collector,
so you can take out the "must have" quotient on most mini sheets,
I generally pay $1 each for mine.

I have been really lucky to get mini sheets in lots so I'm not certain how much I pay individually. I have paid up to $10.00 for one that I really wanted but the CV was much higher than that.
