Weeda Stamps (Vancouver) Weekly Bidboard
WEEDA STAMPS (VANCOUVER) WEEKLY BIDBOARD AUCTION
Closing 12:30 p.m., Saturday, August 30, 2003 Every week, Weeda Stamps* of Vancouver, British Columbia offers 150 lots of Canada and worldwide stamps, postal history, collections, and accumulations in its bidboard auction. I help out the owner, Beverly Fox, by listing some highlights from her auctions here on r.c.s.m. I'm a bit late this week, but that means you can see how the initial bidding is going. I always try to find lots which interest me personally, and it's never a very tough job. Take a look at these lovelies, two choice Canadian stamps (one's a beautiful proof), and an unusually attractive lot of mint New Zealand: Lot #9: Canada #63 http://www.weeda.com/stampimages/9.jpg -- Mint light hinge 1897 $3 Jubilee with great centering. Regummed over thin with internal wrinkle. Lot #12: Canada #71P http://www.weeda.com/stampimages/12.jpg -- Sheet margin proof on card in colour of issue of the 1897 6c brown QV "Leaf". Lot #119: New Zealand #175 // 257, B8 // B11, C6, O33 // O46 http://www.weeda.com/stampimages/119.jpg -- Twenty-eight different mint H/NH. KGV to KGVI issues. All fresh and F/VF Except for large items such as collections, box lots and accumulations, most of Weeda's auction lots are illustrated. For the full list, as well as prices realized in the previous four auctions, go to the Weeda Stamps web site at http://www.weeda.com. BIDS, IN CANADIAN DOLLARS, CAN BE PLACED IN PERSON, BY TELEPHONE, OR ON-LINE UNTIL 12:30 P.M. PDT ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 2003. A note about "prices realized": Only rarely does bidding in philatelic auctions reach the estimated values. If you study the listings and the prices realized, you'll see that bargains are waiting for any collector. It is common for expensive and even rare stamps, covers and other philatelic items to sell in auctions for as little as 10% or 20% of the estimate. Even if you won't be bidding, check out these other features on the Weeda web site: -- The Dutch Auction http://www.weeda.com/dutch.cfm -- Beverly's Best Buys http://www.weeda.com/classifieds.cfm -- The Fox Tales Newsletter http://www.weeda.com/news.cfm Need a clock? Look at the antique clocks that Beverly is advertising for one of her customers: http://www.weeda.com/details.cfm?id=301. One is an Ingraham clock! No relation, unfortunately!
