Hello, I'd like to sell my USA 1940 - 70s stamp collection. I need your opinion. Should I sell my collection all at once or separately? In which case I will get more "profit"? How much $ I might get for the whole collection? There are 60 pages, Most stamps are Mint - Hinged.

I've uploaded all the pictures to dropbox / 60 Images: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/g6vcsn2m...YQRJCla?dl=0

Perhaps the first thing to do is to add up the face value of the mint, and take, say, 40% of that, which is what you might achieve at best. Personally, I'd sell en bloc on ebay. I presume that you can link to Dropbox from the text of your ebay sale, in which case I should do that, with the better pages used as the twelve pictures that ebay allows at the head of the listing. I'm afraid you aren't going to be rich!

Sorry! Common, modern stamps really do sell for next to nothing.

What is really mind boggling is I see this on other stamps too even the ones posted online from philatelic site.
