Schaubek, Gibbons Albums

https://www.ebay.com/sch/cmarsha/m...._ipg=&_from=

Three nice Schaubek albums for the German area, and three Channel Iislands Gibbons one country albums. Low starts.

Sadly, not even visible to anyone outside the US

Not true. At minimum, they also appear on the UK version of ebay. You in Oz might be prohibited from bidding in other eBays (?), but that's not true of us in the US and other countries.

It makes sense to offer them just in the US as collectors outside the US would be reluctant to pay the freight/shipping charges.

Stamps1962, good luck with your auctions! Nice, quality albums.

Actually, the link leads to nothing for me either.

Nope, true I'm afraid. Even logged in on an incognito window, nothing, nil, nada.

This is the 21st century. I have a delivery address in both the UK and US for just this purpose. Even if I wasn't interested in buying, it would be most useful to be able to see what prices are achieved!

Can you post the item numbers so I can check on my US ebay account?

Thanks

Stamps

It's OK, I found them. Do the Schaubek albums have slip covers?

I just tried the link I posted and it works for me, not sure why it doesn't for others.

The Schaubeks do not have slip cases.

I do feel for folks outside the US in a situation like this. After a few episodes of losing my shirt shipping overseas on bulky items I just decided not to attempt it. Best of luck to those bidding.

Thanks for the info on the slip cases.

If you only have shipping set up to the USA, only buyers from the USA can see your listings.

Hence why you can.

I can see nothing from my Canadian account, but when I use my US account, everything is visible with no problems.

If you want to sell internationally, you will have to set up shipping for countries you may want to ship to or use the global shipping program.

International sales have their own problems however!

Good luck with the CI. These run pretty cheap here. I managed to get rid of three Marini hingeless albums for CI and IoM, with a range of stamps (which have a certain local value as postage), for sixty quid.

I put my CI in Davo albums last year. I am just throwing these at the wall to see if they stick. They're nice, and might be just right for someone.

One of my many mistakes. I picked up the albums, then some stamps, then wondered exactly why I was acquiring and housing wallpaper. The wartime issues and the regionals are legitimate, but the rest just appears to be yet another assault on the stamp collector's pocket. The CI and IoM are no different from others in that regard, aside from the fact that there was no real reason why they shouldn't have continued to use standard GB issues.
