********************************
I liquidate philatelic estates for
heirs, families, trustees, and executors, and I have taken on a bit too much
lately, so you will see a lot of listings! I have been APS (and SPA
before that!) for 40 years and was China Stamp Society and ISJP for years. I
have been a 25 year seller and buyer on eBay, too, with a 100% positive
feedback score!
I know it can be
intimidating to buy classic US stamps online, even on eBay. Please be assured that I 100% guarantee
everything, including delivery, with no exceptions. If there is an issue,
I will take returns anytime for any reason and refund fully.
I combine shipping and cut costs on
multiple orders always (PLEASE wait for my invoice with combined
purchases!) I do not generally send the stockpages or the album pages on
lots to save postage costs, but if you want them, please let me know and I will
quote additional postage, in some cases.
I do NOT generally like
offers 1c, 25c or $1 below my opening – it is a bit cheap and
disrespectful. I will listen if you think I have priced something wrong,
however! Also, I will usually end an auction for an offer at or above my
open if it makes sense.
I try and verify everything I list but
occasionally I get something wrong - please be assured, everything is fully
guaranteed, and I will correct a mistake if I can, and repay expertizing if you
get an expertizing opinion that is negative- which has never happened to
me. Buy with confidence!
I use First Class Mail
almost exclusively and domestically it usually takes one to two weeks for
delivery with the political interventions and staff shortages in the
USPS! International mail is facing pretty long delivery times –
expect 4 weeks for delivery to Asia!
TRACKING NUMBER NOTE: I
usually use USPS first class mail because 1) most stamps fit in a letter sized
envelope 2) I also use US vintage, collectible postage stamps from all periods
to post the letters because most of my customers like it. However,
eBay provides tracking with their Standard Envelope labels, so if you want that
instead of real stamps on envelopes, or other special services, especially
outside the USA, just let me know and we can work out costs. When I
mail your purchase, I mark it as shipped on eBay.
HOW TO FOLLOW MY SALES: Click
“View seller’s other items” at the top right of this page, then “Name” the
search, use the drop-down box to “12 Months” and click “Save”. That is all
there is to it.
I have TWO eBay accounts for reasons
too eBay policy to tell, but do look for gr-stamps2 and gr-stamps3 (pretty cool
names for Globalranger Philatelics, right?)
Thanks for your business!
