I am constantly buying large and small collections and often have a variety of U.S. and Worldwide collections, lots, and accumulations available. If you are considering getting into a new area and would like a "starter collection" (whether small or large), let me know about your interest. Also, if you are seeking used binders or used empty albums to match what you currently have, again, let me know. Here are a few samples of collections. The listings below are included by happenstance. If you are seeking a particular country or type of material, please let me know. Payment plans are available. I guarantee your satisfaction.
Due to the low prices and variation in weight, shipping cost is additional for items in the Specials Collections listings unless otherwise mentioned. When ordering please include a note in the shopping cart comments section indicating if you prefer faster/costlier or slower/cheaper delivery so that I may more quickly quote the shipping costs and options for you.
Each item is one of a kind; orders will be filled in order of receipt. Payment by MasterCard or Visa suggested, but I will hold items for 10 days pending receipt of check if you prefer.
Ceylon Collection 1863-1989: Collection of about 390 different (plus some duplicates, mostly for blocks, color shades, perf varieties, etc.), mounted on various album pages. Some mint but mostly used. This includes useful medium values from Queen Victoria to King George VI plus a wide range of later commemoratives. Condition varies: there are half a dozen early issues in rather poor condition and a few others with minor faults, but the overwhelming majority will be F-VF or better with much VF. Scott 2008 retail is $524.95. You should be able to fill many spaces in your Ceylon collection with this one!

Cook Islands Used Collection 1893-1978: About 365 different USED stamps and souvenir sheets on neat Minkus pages in Minkus British Oceania binder. Most Cook Islands proper and Niue, plus a few scattered Aitutaki and Penrhyn. Pages run to 1980, but nearly all of the value is pre-1970 with some better older values and many complete sets in 1960s. You will find many issues which are seldom seen used. The 19th century has some very minor faults as is typical; from 1900 on condition is sound and nearly all VF. Scott 2009 retail totals $481.75. Overall a lovely range of material from small island colonies which are much harder to find used than mint!
