Great commentary, and some lovely stamps to look at on the way. These videos are much appreciated, the quality of content is always excellent. 👌
Great video. I learn a lot from these, and also sort of guide one where to go with your collection, especially as a relatively beginner collector. Thanks!
Excellent presentation. I have collected quite few of these old stock books and have quite a lot of work to do to lay them out properly in order as presented. I prefer the very old stamps . Thank you for shareing 🌞
Excellent video
Excellent videos -- one excellent point you made is that the value of a particular collection need not have one or two gems to ensure substantial worth, rather other factors come in - the area of collecting, degree of completion, and consistency of content. I have learned the difficulty of the last point - consistency- just trying to get a very humble goal (it seems) all plate numbers of the 2 cent US Navajo Jewelry stamp and for some plate numbers, all positions. It has been tough and I learned one of the plate numbers is considered semi-scarce.
Thank you
Very nice video. There was one very important point mentioned there: "Sometimes the catalogue value does not reflect the current market value" - well, this is a huge problem for all of the less experienced collectors. Good to know that Stanley Gibbons is aware of it, however, it is surprising that you do not do anything against it. New catalogues are being made every year, but the real stamp value is not reflected there... Of course, I know, you are also a dealer and I fully understand the reason why the value of the stamps has never really been corrected in your catalogues. And to be fair, this is a problem of ALL catalogue issueres (Scott, Michel, Yvert...) Anyway, thank you for the video, very helpful for all unexperienced collectors. 👍
Twaskyou sr for that information
Thanks video having lost my mum came across her stamp albums well 2 them very interesting she also got a lot lose stamps some on envelopes I wonder where she got them from she had pen friends all over world they sent them to her she got date on one album 1953 I be looking some America.

Excellent and informative videos; most helpful. The only drawback for me was the inanely distracting music in the background. Was it really necessary? Surely the whole content of the video could have been presented without such audio-wallpaper!
Would u be interested In buying international postage stamp album part 1 from Scott publication inc.??
100's of stamps from around the world dating back to 1900's
My handwriting would ruin the look of my collection. 😂
At the 5:00 minute mark you value the Falkland Islands Centenary set at 1000 pounds, but then turn around and sell those exact stamps on your website for 5,380 pounds. That's not making a small profit of 30% on the stamps for your time, effort and overhead, its theft. Your business model is unethical, and prays on people's ignorance. You should be educating them on what stamps they have, and telling them the true value of those stamps.
You have to take into account that those stamps have been mounted with hinges which will make a large difference in value.
I am usually fascinated by every type of collecting, particularly historical stuff, but this seems so unbelievably dull and pointless I can't wrap my head around it.
I don't understand why ,the probably the most important Phelentist Company on the planet,ignore Phelentist World wide.Its not just about selling Stamps , you're not communicating with the rest of the Worlds collectors.Why aren't you on this Channel ,Weekly not Yearly if that.Simple step up to the Plate and take the lead in Stamp Collecting.
