Rob ---- Those are lower level stamp hinges which Cjd is correct for posting that they are way over priced .
What I am watching for are the DENNISON hinges ,that is 50 packets of 1,000 hinges ,the last box I purchased was $900.00 , if a box comes on the market it should sell for $1500.00 now .

I was just trying to help. I admit my ignorance in this field; ON vs. EN is totally above me. What I do suggest about online searching is to utilize the AI search, with which, with properly defined demands, you might get info from many more sources. |

I may disagree with many of you who read this but buying good stamp hinges is not a issue with those collectors who collected for years and have both money and time invested in their collection .
A collector who spends a few hundred or a few thousand dollars a year on stamps and albums will have no big issue spending a extra $10.00 or $20.00 more for hinges . If they buy two or three packets of hinges a year . You have to see it as a cost to continue enjoying their free/relax time .
Only place these levels for hinges is a problem is the person who spends $25.00 for a box of stamps and now asks for hinges and finds the hinges cost more than the stamps they want to work with .
So the person who already got $2,000 to $5,000 tie up in stamps isn't going to cry over the $20.00 or $30.00 to continue adding stamps for the next year to mount them ,sort of bite the bullet and enjoy your time relaxing . |

I use mounts on better stamps if I receive them in MNH condition ,also make it a point to footnote that they are in fact MNH in a pencil note next to the stamps . |

There exist 11 perforation combinations, although not all for each stamp. |

We all like to develop our own style with what we collect . There are what we all think are important factors to showcase our collection . On this page different collectors discuss what is important to them . I don't put much important interest in the binders that I use ,so I purchase and use cheap office supply store white three ring binders . Other here are using expensive padded custom hole punched binders . Each to what they like . One item I do is write in the side edge of each page is the Scott catalog numbers to find what I am searching for or cross checking if I have it or if I got a blank space .  |
