| I Buy Scandinavian Collections, Accumulations, and Single Items |
The old adage that a dealer must buy to sell could not be more true. The majority of the stamps and covers that I sell are purchased from my clients. As a matter of fact, I do not sell any material that I would not be willing to buy!
If you are considering selling part or all of your Scandinavian collection, call, write, or email to tell me about the material you wish to sell.
I am often asked "what type of Scandinavian material do you buy?" The answer is simple: everything. Because I sell all types of Scandinavian philatelic material, I buy it all. Whether you have tax/revenue documents from the 1600s, postmarks from the 1920s, or collection of recent stamp issues, I buy it all. It is true that my stock levels and needs do vary from time to time; if I don't think that I would be the best buyer for your material, I will tell you so. |

| I Buy Non-Scandinavian Material Too! |
| Most collectors of Scandinavia collect other material too. When a client or estate asks me to purchase their Scandinavian collection, I am often also asked to purchase non-Scandinavian material as well. Though I specialize in Scandinavia, I have many clients interested in buying non-Scandinavian collections. This creates an outstanding opportunity for both buyer and seller: The seller gets a high price because the material is passed on to other collectors with a minimum of middlemen and for the same reason, the buyer gets a great opportunity. This results in a fair deal for all! |
