Mail Dumpster Diving

What are common definitives and commemoratives worth? How much can you expect to get per hundred of each?
These prices would be for off paper stamps, off course. Who has the time to count cheap common stamps, after they are sorted and put in envelopes or packaged in bundles?
Wouldn't a better way to sell them be making packets of 100 different or perhaps 200 different?
How many packet makers are here on this forum?

A spoonful of flies will gather more frogs than a spoonful of vinegar.

Just off the cuff, no idea if appropriate,
but current Australian stamps on paper, are available
from the Perth Red Cross shop for $12 per kilo,
just gone up from $10 about 6 months ago.

From our club auctions a large Cadbury chocolate box
of world wide off paper would fetch $15 AUD with
what, 3000-5000 stamps?

I just today asked at a Post Office I have gone to for years if they ever see any stamps in the garbage. They said no, but they do not really look. They said that if they see any they would hold them for me. I said OK, wow, do I have to pay you, and they laughed and said no, not for used stamps. Woo hoo.

Plus sometimes I have got stiff cardboard envelopes that they receive their supplies in that they just throw away also. Good for transporting small sheets of stamps or souvenir sheets so they don't bend etc.

Now if someone would just throw away a penny black or a Ben Franklin or something nice.

I would be happy just with the Canada flower coils so I can practice plating them.

Ask and you shall receive...
