Commonwealth stamp collections. We review two valuable auction lots! CSA June 2024

[@GreatStampAdventure]

Wow, beautiful collections, especially the mint collection!!! Stuff of dreams. Thanks for showing them. ... "Impress your friends and make your enemies jealous!"😆🤣

[@StampAuctions]

You bet!

[@joannewolfe5688]

Eye-popping!

[@clintonbarratt8571]

Both great but second collection is stunning !!

[@StampAuctions]

I think so too!

[@mattys1467]

I'm intrigued. Wouldn't those fetch more money by being curated into individual lots?

[@steveradell859]

Almost certainly, and probably at least 30% more, but that is more work and breaks the integrity of the collections

These two collections shows me what a small padawan I am. Very nice collections, but far beyond my possibilities.

[@StampAuctions]

We know the felling! We are like Rolls Royse salesmen - we sell the best but drive home in regular cars!

[@StampAuctions]

Yes, a real pleasure for us to see.

If donating to auctions etc....Please be careful and take photgraphs before leaving them anywhere... You need photographoc proof.

[@StampAuctions]

Agreed! We recommend using your phone and either film yourself turning pages, or take snaps of pages. You don't have to take a picture of everything if you want to keep a dealer / auctioneer honest - just let them know you've taken pictures! We hear very little in the UK about dodgy dealings, the main players are all honest.

I know that mint stamps are invariably more valuable but they just leave me cold. Give me a collection of used pieces of history any day.

[@troyyang3703]

Sour grapes.

[@steveradell859]

Most often mint are valued higher, are much scarcer and they look nicer. I've heard about 20% of collectors prefer to collect used - I'm fine with both, but prefer mint
