I have a couple of large boxes of postage stamps from all over the world that have been collected over about 35 years and am looking for a reputable dealer.
There are all types of stamps, some on postcards, some in envelopes; most have not been cancelled. They are not organized but are in excellent shape.
Any suggestions how I sould go about dealing with Stamp buyers
and which to use or avoid?
Will I be charged for an appraisal? How much do they typically pay, i.e. percentage
of actual value?
I am in NOVA near Mt Vernon.
Thanks for your help !

don't think any exist in NoVa. last stamp shop I can remember was on centreville road in Manassas Park. he had shop in fairfax city for the longest time(shopping center that has a Tippy's) he just shut down the store one day and that was pretty much it for fairfax county. was a stamp store over in springfield but that was more of a coin shop . anyways thats gone too probably some in Maryland(mont. co.) or points north like baltimore
you do a search on this here internet to see if you have anything of value and condition
I remember taking a box of cards to a card shop and in my naivete of youth sold them at cosniderably less than their value
it was that dude who had a card shop on that road were Kilroy's is located and in my old fartdom can't remember the street name right now
lot of those card dealers were sharks guess that was nature of the business
lot of them got what they deserved in the end
