Retail price vs catalogue values

Simple basic Scutt type won't as they don't even cover all the isses properly. I've never heard of the Scutt catalog that you often refer to. It's the overpriced, multiple volume US published 'catalogue' that omits many acutal issues or only partly covers many others. snip for brevity Pricing is so far removed from actual retail or auction that it's like the LIST price on the TV infomercials, snip for brevity There ain't no such a thing as a retail price for stamps, just one for each individual stamp. This price depends on different things, like for example grading, and it is established on the market. To complain for this reason about unrealistic catalogue values doesn't make much sense to me because different values/prices are compared. Note: I don't speak here about modern MNH stamps, produced in big quantities for topical stamp collectors. -- Victor Manta, PWO, AIJP ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philatelic Webmasters Organization: http://pwmo.org/ Art on Stamps: http://artonstamps.org/ Romania by Stamps: http://marci-postale.com/ Communism on Stamps: http://reds-on.postalstamps.biz/ Spanish North Africa: http://www.sna-on.postalstamps.biz/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
