Description: This lot consists of a large accumulation of stamps from Denmark. The first scan shows the entire lot, followed by closer views of the same stamps. All of the stamps are semipostals, starting from the 1930s and going up to the 1970s, including both mint and used. The mint are a mix of MH and MNH with an occastional no-gum copy The stamps will ship in a couple glassines in a first-class envelope. Standard boilerplate to save me from typing everything every week: About me: I am not a dealer. I’m a hobbyist collector with 70 years of experience, with particular interest in Scandinavia, Canada, Europe, and the U.S. I have been an APS member for 35 years and have twice been president of our local APS-affiliated stamp club. I collected by buying albums, accumulations, and box lots, keeping what I need, and selling the rest. Now I’m in the process of trying to get rid of a lifelong accumulation in closets, bookcases, and file drawers. eBay competes with lots of other interests and responsibilities, so I usually list only a couple items a week (usually starting on Thursday for 10 days to end on Sunday). Descriptions: When the catalogue value of a stamp is dependent on watermark or perforations, I have either confirmed them myself or cited a catalogue price for the cheapest type. Stamps shown within mounts may be previously hinged by a previous owner. If I’m reselling someone else’s old album pages, it’s always possible that the original owner misplaced stamps when mounting them. I describe lots to the best of my ability, but I am human and mistakes can happen. Small lots I try to describe in minute detail. For mid-size lots and album pages I try to check stamp backs for gum status and faults, but in such lots I can’t check or describe everything. Large lots will contain the good and the bad, but usually not the ugly because before I sell them I weed out (into a wastebasket) grossly faulty stamps (missing pieces etc). Hinge remnants can cover faults; I generally do not remove hinges, so thins there might not be detected. When I describe a lot as “unchecked by me” (for shades, varieties, watermarks, papers, cancels etc) it means just that because it’s usually material from countries I don’t collect that came to me in a box lot. Images: I have not yet figured out how to host images on other sites, so I’m limited to 24 photos. The stamps in the photos are always the exact stamps you will receive; I do not post photos of reference stamps. Most item images are created using my old scanner, which sometimes has difficulty reproducing exact shades. When I photograph an item I do so using available light on a dining room table, so again shades of color may not be perfectly reproduced; I try to describe any variance in the written text if it’s important. If catalogue values are visible in the photo written on a page or tag, they may be out of date and inaccurate. Binders, manila pages, and black plastic Vario-type pages and display cards shown in photos are usually not shipped, to save weight and thus your cost for shipping. Shipping: My lots generally end on Saturday or Sunday so I will have time to get your item(s) in the mail to you by Monday. If there’s a delay (blizzard, family crisis), I will email you to let you know. If your purchase is small and not very expensive, I prefer to mail the lot in a regular (4” x 9.5”) business envelope or larger (6” x 9”) manila envelope, using a dealer card for support; it will go at cost and get to you quickly. My preferred shipping method for expensive small items is to put them in a semirigid (cardboard) Scotch photomailer to protect them from damage in transport and to send them by USPS regular First Class mail. The photomailer weights 2 oz empty, so it costs a bit more to ship. The USPS treats this as a “package” because of its rigidity, so it requires manual sorting, and delivery takes longer than for letters (typically 7-10 days across the U.S.). Albums and large accumulations seem to ship most efficiently in a Priority Mail box, and packages to Canada will go by Priority Mail. My charges for shipping, are, as best I can figure it, a sum of the cost of postage, the cost of the mailing supplies, and if a trip to the post office is necessary for insurance, customs, etc. I don’t try to profit from shipping or include a charge for “handling.” I will work with you to combine your winning bids for shipping; for small items I’ll try to do it routinely but for larger ones it will depend on the size and availability of packaging material. I am in no hurry for payment of a winning lot; I’ll wait for several weeks if there are other lots you want to bid on. I can also split lots into 2-3 envelopes if this will help you avoid high customs duties. Return Policy: I have a liberal return policy. If I have made a mistake in describing the lot, feel free to return it intact for a full refund. This does not apply to large lots (bulk lots, album pages, full stock pages) where I can’t monitor whether the lot has been cherry-picked. Stamps that are photographed in the listing should not be returned because of dissatisfaction with centering or perfs. Lots with more than a couple dozen stamps may not be returned for small faults, and items sold “as is” or with described faults may not be returned. I usually don’t deal in material that needs certification, but if you are submitting a stamp for a certificate, notify me when payment is made and I’ll extend the return eligibility period (I refund the cost of the stamp and shipping, not the cost of certification). I do not make Second Chance offers because I don’t deal in large quantities of identical material. Feel free to email me if there are questions that remain unanswered or if you have questions about the contents of a particular lot.
