STAMPS

Unused Postage Stamps?

I purchased from the US Post Office Philatec offerings hundreds of dollars of unused mint cellophane wraped stamps over the last 6 or 7 years – I would like to convert these to cash. They really are not worth anymore than the face value – are there Ebay sellers who would buy them based upon a percentage of face value/ or any companies that would buy them directly – thanks.

Actually some of the offerings are quite desirable based on representation – Elvis, Marilyn, Ella Fitzgerald, Wizard of Oz, etc and many other limited editions may have more than face value to the right collector. E-bay is not really a great gage for real collectibles anymore since many organizations have their own selling/trading sites. Try contacting a local collectors club – try Craigslist or Handylist and advertise your collection for appraisal and possible sale this will peak interest and get you a better offer. Some “estate” dealers will also consider stamps since they are known to increase in value as time passes. Good Luck!
