2c Carmine (Scott 220c)

Hello
Is there a value to these stamps?
Thank you

These all appear to be 'cap' on two variety, 220a and 220c. Value about $2 each

When someone asks you for help, you have to be honest.

Hello same, when asking about "value", there is often quite a difference between "catalog" value and "market" value. Most often, the "market" value is less than "catalog" value, due to condition, centering, and demand.

For the stamps shown, most are of a lower quality (the Scott catalog prices stamps with VF centering and no faults), so I think Don's assessment is reasonable. I would probably value them in the range of 50c to $3.00, but would need to examine them personally to provide a better valuation.

Note: AND all of your stamps shown are USED, not unused as shown in the links, so not good references for comparison.

Same,

Been away all day....




DON....why did you not tell this person the truth???
$2. is way too high for these stamps.

Yes, and if you contact Robert A. Siegel Auction Galleries and provide images of your stamps, and suggest a price of $5,000 to sell your 220c, I'm sure they will be honest with you.

That sounds like an accusation. How's this for honest? You show us 6 different stamps in 11 pictures, with some of the same items appearing three times each. How honest is that? What gives?

The six stamps have clipped perfs, a torn corner, aniline staining, or are seriously off center. There is not one of them that I would consider adding to my collection. These items do not compare for grade with the stamps on ebay that sold.

You should not expect to get very much money for any of them or even for all of them together. How much? You have honestly been told.

How's that for honest?

Here is a set of 3 double capped.

Same, hopefully you see the truth in the ebay link you provided.
I scrolled down through the first page. The only items that actually had a bid was this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/US-Used-189...AOSwx-9WyjmO As you can see, it's three stamps with a bid of $1.99.
