Flea Market Comes Up Trumps

Went to a flea market today and found a stall that sold Toys, Dvd's, Model Trains and Stamps.
I was lucky enough to find these, anyone like to guess what the stall holder accepted for them?

10$

The catalogue value is $111:00

Ok 30$ and that's my last call!

I'll go for a real bargain. 5$!

You are just trying to take the wind out of my sails by making out I did not get a bargain ha ha ha.
So I am not telling you now [sulk, sulk]

he took, $15.00

Stampvirgin,
he asked for $23:00.
After a Yorkshire haggle he took $11:00.
Thanks for being the voice of reason.....x

I'll have to look around for flea markets. I've never bothered with them because I have no need for fleas, but if you can get bargains like that there, I'll have to start going.

So I was close with $10

At my latest visit to a flea market in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, I found two sellers who had stamps. One fellow had a number of albums and boxes in his booth, (I actually bought a 2008 Scott catalog from him; library discard: $8.00), and the other fellow had a lot of South African material. So don't rule out flea markets.

I went to a local market where a fellow was asking $100 for two rather warn and brownish albums. They had quite a few stamps in them but they were all ones that you would expect to find in a 10 cent bin. A month later he still had them.

One of our local op shops has a small packet of very common India with a price of $10 on it.

Some people still think that stamps they bought in the 80s for 5 cents must be worth about a million dollars by now. (Slight exaggeration there)

I have this at flea markets all the time. People are convinced that any 'OLD' stamp must be worth a fourtun. Even if it is a 2 cent Columbian in ratty condition. "But its from the 1800's". " You are just trying to rob me". I don't even bother offering most of the times. Only time I can get a good deal is when seller tried three stamp dealers already.
