1. Price Policy

It may be surprising for some that the minimum price asked for a stamp is 1 US $ while many of these stamps are listed lower in official catalogues. We want to refer to Scott 2007 (Vol 2 p. 19A):

"The minimum catalogue value of an individual stamp or set is 20 cents. This represents a portion of the cost incurred by a dealer when he prepares and individual stamp for resale" É."In many cases, such as the 20-cent minimum value, that price does not cover the labor or other costs involved with stocking it as an individual stamp".

Indeed, in today's world it is already a challenge to stock stamps and sell stamps individually below 1US$ each. Because of our geographic situation in a country with "cheap" labor, we do our best to film and document for you each stamp separately and try hard to stay below the 1$ limit for each stamp in the costs we have.

We hope that the fact that you can see the very stamp you chose to buy deserves that small premium and the extra work that our company has put in it. The main purpose of the site is to provide a happy environment for shopping and enjoying the beauty of the many stamps from all periods and all countries and all subjects.
