"Sensibly priced stamps as low as 10% of Stanley Gibbons catalogue prices"
.
On top of these great prices I am offering FREE Postage and Packing if you spend the following, combined over a 10-day period and invoiced & posted together:
UK customers spend - £9.95 or more to qualify.
Europe and Worldwide customers - £11.95 or more to qualify.
.
This must be done in a single invoice transaction and is weight dependant.
Maximum combined weight of items won including secure packing:-
UK - 100g
Europe / EU/ Rest of the World - 40g.
.
My "Snap it Up" prices are usually between 10 & 25% of Stanley Gibbons catalogue prices depending on condition i.e. Good or Fine postally used or Mint (MNH or MLH), so there's a real opportunity to find many genuine bargains in my store.
.
Whenever possible I will combine all items purchased / won over a 10-day period into a single invoice / postage & packing charge, thus saving you even more money.
