Pushing 330,000 All Different Worldwide Stamps In One Collection .

Got 2 stamp auctions coming in next few days . Looking around at what is being offered . Made a list of what would be fun to work on . Something that will be different and would take a few weeks to develop into a nice album .

Real nice Straits Settlement complete set. I popped in to say good luck with the final Rasdale Auction starting tomorrow.

GT350 ANNY ---Thanks ,today is the first day of a two day auction . Had a list of a few lots , one on the list was a bulk worldwide lot ,just to have something for the football season sort of a junk lot to work on while in front of the T.V.
I guess a lot of midwest dealers shown up to build their inventory for the last time sort of load up at this last auction for Rasdale . Guess to get a whole years supply ,because the prices were aggressive for the bulk lots , so the idea of me getting a t.v. junk lot did not work here at this last auction . Prices wasn't something I wanted to chase . But picked up two lots both British Colonies , so the separate country lots didn't run like the junk lots .
Still got one small lot near the end of the auction to go after . Lost out on a few lots . Prices are what I expected but wasn't going to push any lot . This auction has a lot of material so had time to paint some outdoor furniture between lots I wanted to watch .
So will return tomorrow for the seperate lots there are two complete set lots will try for , so another long day to bid ,maybe wash and wax the truck if it don't rain while waiting thru the auction .First a morning run to McDucks for a $1.00 ice coffee . They start making the drink when they see me walk in .

Sounds like a pretty productive day. I had never dealt with Rasdale before and I tried to attend via SAN this morning and obviously had no idea they only use SAN for pre bidding. I was going to try and register through their website but noticed they asked for a minimum of 72 hours lead time so I simply scrapped that idea. We were out and about today anyway which means I'm driving so it would have been spotty at best. Not to mention I won one lot earlier this week and generally speaking have been spending it up on stamps this year!
