HELLO ALL!

OK ok, I know... I should have a set of Scott worldwide albums... but I don't, can't get to the library in time, and I need a value in a hurry!

Can anyone tell me if Scott lists a value for a non-plate block of 4 Belgium Congo #257?? I know a single listed last year for $1.40, but a block I am looking at is going for over $6.00 so far. I really just need a single, but have not found one that wasn't overpriced.

Can anyone help??
JD

Scott does not list a block of 4 for this stamp. It's not rare, there should not be any premium associated with a simple block of 4. At $6, the bidder is basically paying full catalog value for the stamp. Your call.

Nells, have you checked Bidstart? They are usually very good for single numbers. Peter

The famous Belgian Congo HoverTrain prototype.

An early maglev design? Or just the case of an artist who forgot to draw in the drivers (wheels)?

It is a neat stamp.

Nells, on Bidstart you really don't need to browse! You can search for Belgian Congo 257 and a bunch of them come up! Good luck, Peter
