Chuck Smead's Stamps

Chuck Smead's Rare and collectable Stamps

I started collecting stamps when I was 9 years old. I stopped in college and started again 8 years later when 2 US collections were offered to me. I have been collecting ever since. I started selling/trading over 30 years ago. I went “full” time in 1988 and have been trading and selling stamps since then. Although I sell all countries, I collect only bi and multi-color engraved stamps and proofs. Check out the Atlanta Trial color Proofs On this website. I think these are among the most excellent philatelic items ever made.

My goal is to provide you, the collector, with the best stamps for the lowest price. To keep prices down we:

1) Do not advertise

2) Do not take credit cards

3) Have no overhead as we do business out of our home.

4) I buy in bulk at low prices possible and pass the saving on to you.

I guarantee my prices are lower than any dealer. Way lower than the big dealers like Mystic. I will beat any dealer's pricelist by at least 10%, for big dealers it’s more than 50%. When I send you stamps, each stamp will be net priced. I will then give you a lower price to take the entire lot of stamps sent. The discount starts at 10% for purchases of $20 and over. It goes up to 35% for large purchases. Using 2018 Scott catalogs, price for nice sound fine-very fine plus stamps is 50%. Average sound is 30%. Seconds will range from 5% to 25%. I also have packet/collection lots for under 10%. See specials sheet. Shipping always FREE on stamps. No hidden costs.

Satisfaction is guaranteed. All Items are returnable within 1 week of purchase. APS Members and previous customers will get stamps on approval before they pay. All others pay in advance with money back guaranteed if not completely satisfied.
