Stamps Price Guide

If you have collected stamps before you may think, "Well a high priced stamp should show more profit over the long term than a low priced stamp." This statement is very true in essence, but we have to qualify it by determining what a high priced stamp actually is. For some people a stamp costing £500 may be highly priced, for others the figure may be nearer £5000 or more.

Over a short term(5years) stamps in this range tend to fluctuate more than those at £1000+. They are uncommon stamps, but not truly rare, and so come on the market far more frequently than is ideal for investment. Even in fine condition there may not be enough demand for these stamps as they are relatively easy to obtain in many of the larger auction houses.

A stamp price guide not only will let you know what the price of stamps are, but it will also offer other benefits as well. An old US postage stamps price guide will let you know all the stamps that are available and what special edition stamps have been issued over the years.

Stamp guides will also have interesting articles about stamps and stamp collections. A lot of great information can be gained from these guides. Many times the articles themselves alone are a reason to purchase the stamp guides.
