1. TOP CONDITION: there are no blemishes on the face and the back of the stamps(s). The gum is in its original perfect condition without any dots, spots, cracks or other faults due to aging, discoloration or else.

2. MNH /mint, not hinged/: there are no hinges or traces of hinges on the back of the stamp(s), but there might be blemishes of the gum, mainly due to aging - small cracks, dots (due to stuck dust or other small particles) or other.

3. MH (MINT) /mint, (hinged)/: the stamp(s) have hinges, or traces of hinges, or other blemishes of the gum.

4. USED: stamp(s) that have a postal seal. Their gum is completely or partially missing!!!

5. M/U: mint/used - the lot contains both used and mint stamp(s).

I have done my best to make high quality scans of the items I sell. So, please, look very carefully at each picture and visually inform yourself about every possible detail and aspect of the stuff: tears, thinnings, repairs, broken edges or corners, missing teeth, gum presence/absence and condition, presence/absence of hinges or traces of hinges and etc.

I send the stamps only by registered mail and to the listed PayPal address. If you are not sure what your listed PayPal address is - please, check it and if necessary - change it before you pay. I know registered shipping is expensive, but it is the only way I can guarantee a safe delivery or a refund. The whole concept of my sales is that a bidder/buyer takes more than one listing to make S&H cost-effective.

I kindly ask every person, who has won an auction of mine, to check the listing's page after the payment in order to see the registration (tracking) number of their shipment.

In case a letter is not received within 44 days after it's shipped - the buyer/winner will get a refund. Please, inform me of any irregularities that might appear in the shipping process!

Combined shipping: S&H will be as stated for the most expensive lot regardless of the number of items won in the course of one listings session (a group of listings, ending on the same day). Buyer/bidders with unpaid items will be restricted from future bidding/buying until payment is made.

Import duties, taxes and charges (if any) are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be for you prior to bidding/buying.

I only accept PayPal as payment method. I speak ENGLISH and RUSSIAN only.
