Value Question: Full Sheet, Austria Scott # 840A-H, Issued 5'24'1969.

I am about to list this on ebay - any thought as to what someone or a club might pay for it? CV for each pane $USD4.75. Just curious - TIA.

The value to a buyer is based upon total price, item AND shipping plus any sales tax. Safe reinforced flat shipping at First Class will be near $5 with out tracking. Anything else will greatly jump the shipping costs to well beyond the value of the sheet.

I don't see the item selling for more than $4.00 net plus all the other fixed costs at untracked first class. After you pay you required seller expenses, you could make as much as $2.00 for this, that will be nearly 50 cents per hour for your time.

Now if you do not place any value on your time and believe in taking a gambol, list it and see. You loss should be more than a dollar or two and your unvalued time.

Do you have other Austrian material that could accompany it? And can you gently fold the sheet along the perforations? Together, that could make up a lot worth listing.

There is a sheet listed on ebay.com for 36 dollars that has been folded previously- it shows!

Taking into account my recent experiences with the post office it is a gamble as to whether or not the sheet would ever survive intact. I wouldn't put my money on it arriving as it left.

You might try offering this to buyers only with United States addresses.

Ship it in a tube. Do not fold it. And have your postage (first-class?) figured out before you list it for sale.
