Descriptions:
I use large, high resolution images in all listings. All stamps are without faults unless specified above. Small (but important) details such as hinge remnants, toning etc will always be pointed out, if relevant. And if you are not happy in any way, you can always return the item for a full refund.
I aim to make my descriptions as consistent and accurate as possible so that you know exactly what to expect. Descriptions used are:
MNH – mint not hinged, unmounted mint
VLM Mint – very lightly mounted mint. Immaculate gum with just a trace of a hinge mark
LM Mint – lightly mounted mint. Excellent gum. A fine quality stamp
M Mint – mounted mint. Notable evidence of hinging but still a large part original gum
MNG – mint no gum
HR - hinge remnant. Unless the listing states ‘HR’, presume no hinge remnant is present
Pricing and Print Volumes
Catalogue pricing for Latin America can be very inconsistent across the main publishers. For stamps with low print volumes I aim to show numbers printed where available, to help you determine the relative scarcity.
Album Pages & Selections:
Stamps on album pages and selections are sold as seen. The reverse of the stamps will not have been inspected for gum, watermarks, perf variety or condition. Album pages may be carefully folded to keep postage costs down unless requested otherwise.
Payment Information:
Multiple purchases will always be consolidated to reduce postage costs.
Shipping Information:
Postage costs are kept to a minimum by sending everything by regular post. If you would like your stamps sent by a Track and Trace service then let me know and I will send you a revised invoice for the additional cost. All stamps are sent from the UK via Royal Mail.
Unconditional Guarantee:
All stamps have an unconditional guarantee and can be returned for a full refund for whatever reason. No returns on stamps on album pages or selections which are sold as seen.
Questions?
Do please ask if you have any questions whatsoever. I am always happy to provide further information.
