I just bought this one from ebay:


As I have no idea what it is worth I was wondering what you guys would pay for a stamp like that?
I think I overpaid but I liked it :p

oh yeah I paid $1.88 (shipping included)

I hope it will be in the mail soon

I suppose shipping to Belgium (assuming it is from the US) would be a bit expensive.

A website I know has this stamp for 6 cents Mint Never-hinged..

that is the biggest problem (also for the coin collection)
shiping costs are sometimes higher than the cost of the item :p

the stamp itself I paid $0.75
The rest was for shipping.
I tought it was a bit to much for that stamp, but I liked it.
So I dont realy mind that it is overpaid, but it is something I will have to look at when I buy more (if I am going to overpay all of them its going to be costly :p )

Koen,

Welcome to SCF!

For your general awareness, the vast majority of U.S. stamps from the 1930s onward have a used catalog value of $0.20 cents which makes their actual value in the range of $0.05 or below.

.20¢ tops but it looks sound. I always liked the 20's & 30's purples. Congrats on your newest arrival! As long as your happy that's what it's worth!

Agreed! Don't forget you can learn a lot of history from these stamps, too. If you don't know the story behind the State of Connecticut and the Charter Oak, here's a brief history:
