[QUOTE="barmybrummie, post: 427860, member: 13547"]Hi Cheers guys for all the helpful replies. Not sure how to PM you but will try and work it out! Yes I am interested in a French 1968 FLEURS DE COINS FDC set and any other 1968 European sets he might have. Other sets I am looking to source are German and Spanish sets. I am pretty sure the German set existed, I don't know about Spain, but its knowing the right way to do an internet search! I was ideally looking to buy from a US dealer as the exchange rate works in my favor and the price of these sets from European dealers is through the roof at the moment. For instance I just bought an Italian divisionale 1968 repubblica set with packaging in excellent condition. I had to pay $115 for it and that was less than half of what any of the others I found were selling for. If you have modern European sets I would say now is the time to sell as they are all fetching strong money. You can get the odd good deal off Ebay but you have to wait for a poorly listed item. As you say these sets are 40 years old now and for many the packaging has been subject to the ravages of time.[/QUOTE]
