INFORMATION SOURCES:
First of all, stamps will be well packaged and sent by Royal Mail. Therefore please see our Shop menu for postal options. Postage
We only charge postage for the first item in most cases. Thus any further items purchased would not increase the final postal charges. Furthermore we do not charge you for envelopes and packaging.
Recorded Delivery or Registered Post is also available if required. If one of these options is taken, compensation for loss or damage can be claimed.
We mention Stanley Gibbons catalogue numbers where it is possible. These numbers are either from the “Concise Stamp Catalogue” or from the “Specialised Stamp Catalogue Volume 4 Part 1”. We will try to mention any other numbering that we may use if not covered by the above. Sometimes particular stamps, Smilers sheets, booklets, miniature sheets, or cylinder blocks are not recognized anywhere. Hence, in this case, we would use our own expertise to describe and value that item.
In conclusion, all of our stamps are unmounted mint and also in an excellent condition. We will mention any variation to this statement.
Please let us know if we have made a mistake with this description.
