| 4806 | All good you are on the right track ,If not I am sure the Cartel will help. rebel58 - 2013-02-24 16:46:00 |
| 4807 | I'm not to sure if the Cartel is all up with the play on stamps. lester36 - 2013-02-24 17:41:00 |
| 4808 | Anyone know about the history of the 1930's 'Thursday Island - Queensland' postmarked Japanese stamps - similar to the one below - postally used ? - www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/japan-nippon-sn-red-stamp-pos There cant be many around for the postmark alone ? - what sort of value ? Thanks tmg - 2013-02-24 18:42:00 |

it's probably worthwhile borrowing or obtaining a Stanley Gibbons world catalogue set -- your local library -- stamp club or possibly some are listed here -- for the Stanley Gibbons updated values look at the following Stanley Gibbons site: if you want to spend some time & get an indication of what the GB dealer sells them for -- possibly an exercise for winter nights ;-) tmg - 2013-02-24 18:46:00 |

| 4811 | first & second pics - 1d brown ? third pic -- left one looks like a revenue overprint what's colour of the right one - blue or green ? tmg - 2013-02-24 20:26:00 |
| 4812 | Pic 1 Left stamp & 2 looks like 1d red 1858-1870 Simplified SG 43 (obviously there are different plate #'s with these which may vary) Pic 1 - Right stamp 1858-70 Simplified SG 51 - 1 & 1/2 d red Pic 3 - Right stamp - 1887-1900 1/2d - SG Simplified # 197 vermillion or # 213 for 1/2d green (same stamp - issue in different colors) Edited by tmg at 9:01 pm, Sun 24 Feb tmg - 2013-02-24 20:53:00 |

| 4815 | bound to be shades / fadings / different plates / prints for the 1d brown the first 2/6 by looks is for QV 1883-84 SG 178 - possibly you have a perfin copy - the next 2/6 King Edward VII 1902-13 - then King George VI 1913-18 for GB. 2 1/2 p, 11/2 p, 2 p,, 4 1/2 p, 6 p may well be QV 1887-1900 - SG 197-214 sequence - but would need to see scan as there are other sets with some of these values - 4 1/2d looks if QV to be SG206 SG approx 40 pds -- possibly may have moved since this catalogue -- that's SG dealer selling price in stg -- some higher values in this set do have value. in terms of real value -- consider any faults - folds - rips & tears / missing corners / thins etc - heavy cancellations - rust or discolouring -- and then what a willing buyer (perhaps on here) may be prepared to pay which could be anywhere from 15% - 40% of CV or more dependent on scarcity / demand / other bidders present etc etc Edited by tmg at 10:43 pm, Sun 24 Feb tmg - 2013-02-24 22:33:00 |
| 4816 | If you have any values from the earlier 1883-84 QV set (1/2d - 1/- values single colour - dull mauves & greens with 2 1/2d horrizontal) there is certainly some value there -- again dependent on condition etc etc tmg - 2013-02-24 22:49:00 |

| 4823 | The Christchurch Stamp & Postcard Fair will be on this Saturday at the Philatelic Centre, 67 Mandeville St in Riccarton. Come and meet your favorite Trademe sellers or buyers 9am to noon. twg1935 - 2013-03-01 00:05:00 |
| 4824 | Friends who are moving out of the red zone have decided to get rid of their first day cover collections and stamp collections. Can you recommend a reputable dealer/buyer please? Christchurch I guess. 47toby - 2013-03-01 06:41:00 |

| 4826 | Some Members give their auction reference number P.... when making a payment. The Bank payment is shown with the P# but this is of no use if only this number is available. Only the LISTING number can be seached on TM. if no other information is in the bank statement shown this causes just delays. I would suggest a bank payment is made giving only the TM user name. The P# leads to more disruption as reference and detail is not correctly interpreted by the payee and the long numbers are not often correctly passed on. When I issue a receipt I only note the last four numbers of the list which suffices identification. It would even help if a TM search could be made like ....1234. Streamlining a selling process etc is good but other media is also involved wich is time consuming like packaging, postage . Any other thoughts on this ? philafarinz - 2013-03-01 10:33:00 |

| 4829 | Wait for the next fair - they are once a month. Or look up "Stamp Dealers" in the Yellow Pages. funho1 - 2013-03-02 08:57:00 |

Amazing that they haven't withdrawn the faulty 10x booklets that have poor stick/gum jobs -- instead of continuing selling them ;-) tmg - 2013-03-06 14:45:00 |

the last 6 digits of any of the auction numbers a buyer has grabbed as a reference here works fine -- perhaps Trade Me should have made this change optional to see how many liked yet another numbering system to contend with ? ;-) tmg - 2013-03-06 14:48:00 |
| 4836 | Any long numbering system is fine as an auction ID for TM. (when copied and pasted) When I refer to an auction number the last 4 digits are ample allowing correct detail 99%. Why not just use the more familiar USER name as reference. Chances are Banks may get that right more often. philafarinz - 2013-03-06 20:52:00 |

| 4839 | 1906 Christchurch 1d Claret. Interested in your comments on this 'stamp'. This guy seems to have a knack of coming up with 'rare items'; most of which look extremely dubious. Edited by phil.s at 1:28 pm, Sun 10 Mar phil.s - 2013-03-10 13:26:00 |
| 4840 | Defiantly bogus ,It is roulette'd rather than perfed much like the modern peel and stick stamps. The star wmk is interesting as you can see it in the scan, penciled in perhaps? Edited by rebel58 at 3:52 pm, Sun 10 Mar rebel58 - 2013-03-10 15:49:00 |

Yep .. good call there -- that style of perfing is similar to 1994/95 A-B adhesives -- and they dont seem to be showing too much wear & tear for 100+ years time on the clock -- the print is fresh too -- too fresh for the age IMO tmg - 2013-03-11 04:24:00 |
| 4846 | First Day Cover. phil.s - 2013-03-11 14:24:00 |
| 4847 | Thank you phil.s. I have a same family set of 6 of these 1901 First Day Covers in similar condition, 5 of which were sent to the same Christchurch address and 1 addressed to the "Press" Office in Christchurch by the same writer, who was in fact on the Literary Staff of the "Weekly Press" in 1900, so sent it to himself:) I have a number of items to sell to fund our House extension, and it has been suggested I take them to a Mowbray Auction due to their uniqueness, for a wider audience. Do you know what their commission might be compared to selling on Trademe? or is that commercially sensitive? Don't want to get into trouble:( Oh what to do as I have only collected and never sold! kristall - 2013-03-11 15:38:00 |
| 4848 | Hi there. I have 3 small envelopes from Germany - all used with franked stamps on them. One from October 1900 (or could be 1908), one from 1940, and one from 1949. I wondered if anyone could please tell me if these would be of interest to someone, or shall I just stick them in my scrapbook? :-) Thanks so much. Jen jenandjohn - 2013-03-11 23:51:00 |
| 4849 | Hi guys, a month or 2 ago there was a stamp fair here in Timaru, which i unfortunately missed. I am wondering if this is a regular thing? Anyone able to shed some light. Cheers. shredzwear - 2013-03-13 01:43:00 |
