Sorry it is mostly common U.S. postage not a lifelong collection . I purchased the same stuff at 25% to 30% lower than your price at a recent stamp auction .
There is much, much more coming. I just started listing last night and it is taking a bit of time. If prices on some things are too high, I have some ideas for what to do with those items once they run their 30 days - like put all unsold stuff in a box and auction it starting at 0.99$. I am still trying to figure out a faster way to list. I also sell used year sets from early 1900s to 2015 each week on auction.
As we were just pure collectors and never sold very seriously, we are going to also be experimenting with different ways to sell. In the next few days you may get lucky to pick up lots of various stamps for very cheap.
Not to be all sappy, but we are scrambling to sell as much of the things laying around the house as possible to finish paying for my best friend Mace the Mastiff's hip surgery and his physical therapy. He WILL hike a trail with me again one day, even if it is just the flat circle trail near our lake.
If anyone has any advice on how to sell stamps quickly and get the most value out of them, it would be most appreciated. We have walls of boxes, binders, etc of stamps from the late 1800s to present day.
Your shipping charge on newer mint stamps will discourage most bidders. Most of that is worth about 70% of face value at best. I'd list large groups of $100 face value for $75 with a best offer option. A picture of the entire group would cut down on all of your photos and greatly reduce the time spent on this common stuff.
Thank you very much kcaramat for the advice. It is greatly appreciated.
bobby131313, my sincerest apologies. I will take the time to review the rules thoroughly and gain a greater understanding of this forums culture; that is entirely my fault for just jumping right in before doing the necessary back work.
