Hello From Australia

Hello All!,

I'm new here to the forum and I just wanted to say G'Day and tell you all why I joined,

I joined because about 12years ago when I was in school I started collecting stamps and my fathers boss's father had been collecting stamps for years too and to my suprise he gave me his collection!

And yesturday when I was cleaning I saw the stamps and it got me thinking '' I wonder how much if anything are they worth!?''

So I decided to join here and was wondering can anyone point me into the right direction on finding what they are worth?

I know nothing about stamps to be honest and they are from all over the world and date back back many years

thanks
Steven

steven,
Welcome. I hope the collecting bug has once again bitten you and you continue with your collection you have dusted off. To help with value I suggest posting pictures, tell us about the collection, and look into getting a catalog (your local library should have a set).

G'Day Steve and to the forum.

Steve there are a lot of people here on the forum that can give you an idea on what the stamps are worth,first you have to pick a topic to post the stamps in,then upload your photo's and someone will answer you question easy as.

G'day Cobber,

Good to see another Aussie on the forum. Even if you are from Melbourne LOL. I would also suggest obtaining a catalogue from the library and slowly working your way through that. Also post any pics on the forum, if you find some tricky ones.
Stick around and enjoy the hobby.

Thanks all for the warm welcome and please dont hold that I from melbourne against me triggersmob lol

The catalogue? is there a actual name for it? or is it just a stamp catalogue?
sorry but thats how new I am in stamps I have no idea but hopefully ill be a quick learner :)

I had a quick look threw the books I have and it seems stamps that are joined together are more valuable so I took a pic of the first one I saw lol

Welcome, Divy!

Forget the value... dive back into the hobby!

There are two main catalogues you could use, these are Stanley Gibbons and Scotts.
