<p>[QUOTE="oz_in_ohio, post: 2834725, member: 89534"]I sell on ebay and the fees dont worry me..... I have been there since 1999 and all my fees i have paid have not bothered me..... It costs me 10% for ebay fees and 9% for paypal.... Paypal is the safest way to get paid... Prior to me migrating to the USA from Australia, i decided to take a week off work and fly all around Australia to buy USA mint stamps.... I spent close to au$17,000 and this was going to be what i use for shipping packages when i got to Ohio...I will not disclose the discount i received but lets just say it made up for my ebay and paypal fees combined. Attached is an example of a package i sent to SC and in it were mint sheets of USA stamps from years gone by. Both normal postage stamps and cinderellas. I will not disclose the front as it has the buyers adress and would not be fair to them to have it sprayed all over this site. The receiver loved the way i flooded the package with old stamps and he bought more off me but mainly in plate block form. I do this with all my packages i send and especially average sized envelopes as i use 3c and 4c stamps all over the back...... The main factor is that one has to be prepared to buy up what he/she sees at that very moment and i was. The best way is at a stamp show and especially from a dealer that has had a quiet day...You can be sure to get a better discount then to cover the ebay and paypal fees. Attatched are pictures of 2 books i have full of mint USA stamps ready to use on packages....This is just the tip of the iceberg so to speak. Imagine another 6 more books full and the face values go up to $1 stamps. Just remember mint stamps are exactly the same as gold, silver, cash, property but in a different format. They will never ever lose money as once they are printed, they stay that price forever ( as long as they are still mint ) just imagine if you also were a stamp collector as well as coins....Which would you prefer?? A package i make up smothered with stamps in blocks etc or a pre printed adhesive sticker from the post office. i think i know the answer already. The way i find out my shipping price is usps.com.. ... OIO[ATTACH=full]668991[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]668998[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]668999[/ATTACH] have a nice day ...OIO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
