This is are a very small selection of the
tens of thousands of stamps and "job lots" I have for sale. I am constantly
buying new stock, so if what you need is not here, please ask! I stock basic Australia and
most "Australasian Pacifics" 100% complete up to 1980, and the material in my
lists is generally only the more unusual and interesting stock - let me quote on the
"bread and butter" stuff. My prices on such material are the lowest you will
find in Australia, whether mint, used, FDC, year albums, packs, etc. Refer to the want list page for details on how to ask

Special Offer #2
This is around HALF usual retail!!! Buy
up ..... I have 1000's here, and with the very strong
Euro, you may never see prices like these again, as my
replacement cost is going up each year, and supply
issues are often CHRONIC!
220 sheets - $A200
400 sheets - $A340
600 sheets - $A475
POSTAGE on
these is not as bad as you might imagine.
Each lot
of 220 is pretty heavy - about 6 kilos.
I am making this unique fixed price offer for FLAT RATE POSTAGE ... no matter WHERE you live in Victoria, NSW, and Queensland (except NQ) - I will mail these for a flat $A20, plus Reg’d and packing fee. For North Queensland (Zones Q3, Q4) and all Tasmania and South Australia it will be a flat $A25 plus Reg’d Post and packing. And it will be a flat $30 for anywhere in Northern Territory or Western Australia. 400 or 600 often costs not much more postage than the 220 price shown here. In some cases 600 (18 kilos) costs EXACTLY the same as one carton of 220! 600 will fit into ONE large box, meaning only ONE postage cost for you. So buy more than you THINK you need, as you’ll save a ton on postage. And you WILL use them up! Registered post and the time consuming packing is
only a flat $5 extra,
whether 220 or 400 or 600 is purchased. And I CAN
send 600 as one shipment, and still be under the
PO max weight limit of 20 Kg. Let me know your
postcode. If you are in a place that rates a high
Australia Post 'zone' I'll quote postage, but 99% of
readers will not be affected by this. |

These have the discreet 5 gold
stripes on spine, and are superb.
Check the deep leather look graining

5 or 10 of these on bookshelf REALLY
look classy. Red, green and
blue never looked like leather to
me, as I cannot ever recall seeing a

These have the LARGEST capacity you
can buy. Beware of thin spine
binders, which often cost more, and
of course store less sheets!
These 4 ring binders hold

hold the 220 Hagner sheets quite
nicely. And 400 Hagners will
fit perfectly into 10 sets, and
likewise 15 sets will house the 600

slipcase alone should cost this
much!

1985
33¢ "Barred Edge" Frama Labels Stamps: Australia's - indeed the Southern Hemisphere's FIRST
ever Frama machine label design stamps! Same colorful red.white/blue
design as the 1984 Barred Edge, but these were a rate increase
set, 33c from 30c, and thus are FAR scarcer to be honest. Complete
P.O. set 9 mint unhinged still in original PO glassines: Ret.
$A20 set (once was $A60!)
Local Richard Juzwin retail price is $A330.
The Seven Seas Stamps "Australian Stamp Catalogue" (ASC) price for the
set 11 is $A420. MUH set of 11 - my VERY special DISCOUNT price offer for this month is:
$A275. Or MUH blocks of 4 (very rare)
$A1,250. I also have the
earlier and later overprints also at terrific discount prices. For a
complete set of TWENTY different overprints
my discount price is $A335
or that full set 20 in MUH blocks 4 for
$A1,500. These will never be cheaper.
Definitive sets like the 1967 Anguilla
overprints are already cat at £9,000 in Stanley
Gibbons ... and Anguilla has NOTHING like even 1% of the collector
following of PNG I suspect. Think about it! £9,000. This
PNG set has a LONG way to go yet - that seems very clear. This PNG set
selling for DOUBLE my price would not surprise me to see in the next few
years. For very detailed and comprehensive background on this issue with
all numbers printed etc - see my special page on these issues:
http://www.glenstephens.com/overprints.html
Finally - all the 1994
"Emergency" sets I sell are of course guaranteed
100% genuine. You may ask for a Photo Certificate Of Genuineness on my security
watermarked colour letterhead for this set of 11 or 20, dated and signed,
illustrating in full colour the
exact set I mail you. If
required, this CERTIFICATE costs you an extra $A45 on top of price of the
stamps, largely to cover the considerable time and messing around
of individually preparing each one, typing, and scanning &c. This is Substantially
cheaper than sending it to the R.P.S. in London etc, which takes half a
year to get back, and also incurs substantial Registered airmail cost to
you - in both directions. And quite frankly, the RPS would not have a
clue about these issues.
'Too Modern' they would sniff. Years down the track when the set sells
for several times what it does now, such a certificate
Guaranteeing
these came from original PNG sources in 1994/5 will add
FAR more than $A45 to the extra price you obtain
when selling.

Lady
Diana Stamp Errors. Well,
I get to be offered all sorts of things in this business.
How about the apparent first offering after 15 years laying
un-recognised, of Lady Diana stamps printed Tete-Beche???!!
I bought them cheap,
and am selling them cheap.
They
may well be worth TEN times my silly
low price of a few dollars each from error specialists or mainline dealers.
As usual, my business logic holds fast –
“you can’t go broke
making a fast profit”!
In
a short time they’ll all be sold.
And so what if they later get auctioned etc … it is not my worry.

I bought Pallet loads from Germany!

LIGHTHOUSE STOCKBOOKS AT
Under
HALF
THE COST OF HAGNER SHEETS !!!!!
This is a
wonderful lot.
My BEST selling
line all year.
Another few
pallets of
stock just
arrived. All
BLACK pages
as that is what
all collectors
prefer. Your
stamps look SO
much better on
black pages than
white. The
universal
best-seller
32 page size. More
details on this
offer here -
www.glenstephens.com/lighthouse.html
This new Deluxe
line has
really CLASSY
looking covers
front and back -
like a rich 'marbled'
leather look I
suppose you'd
call it. SO
much nicer
looking than the
boring solid
colours used for
the past 30
years - even by
"Lighthouse"! A
lovely mix of
cover colours
per carton as
you can see in
photo. Five
different
colours - 2
books in each
colour per
carton. PERFECT
for your fast
location of your
GB, NZ, Norfolk
or USA or Canada
collections.
These are top
quality West
German made
"Lighthouse" books.
The BEST!
Surely your
stamps DESERVE
the best ....
and at HALF the
usual storage
costs ..... why
ever not?! The
photos above
were taken by
me, and are of
the books and
colours you
actually
receive.
These books have
CRYSTAL CLEAR
strips - 9
strips per page.
This is
much more
expensive than
glassine to
manufacture of
course, but with
glassine your
stamps are
always half
hidden behind
murky/cloudy
type glassine
when you look at
them. VERY few
stockbooks (only
a few %) sold in
the past 25
years have CLEAR
strips, as the
cost to make
them is high.
Strong LINEN
HINGED pages on
both sides for
very long wear,
and
DOUBLE glassine
interleaving
to protect all
your stamps
- and stopping
the
cheaper single
interleaved
pages from
tangling and
crumpling up -
which they
ALWAYS do!
Retail price
is $32.50
each.
My 2 carton
buy is more
than
20% below
retail
price!
I am selling
these ONLY
in Factory cartons
of TEN for
$A270
Or TWO
factory
cartons of
ten
= 20
stockbooks
- for
just $A515!
(A80¢ a
page!)
(And yes, I
will quote
even lower
prices on
larger
buys -
dealers,
re-sellers
or
collectors
with a LOT
of
re-housing
to do please
enquire!)
Postage and
insurance is of
course extra,
but as always, I
use carefully
selected, light
cancelled,
philatelically
VERY valuable
stamps and
se-tenant
strips, small
run modern mini
sheets of 10
etc on every
carton mailed,
so the "real"
shipping cost is
often basically
zero to you.
POSTAGE
ON TWO BOXES is
exactly the
SAME as ONE box
within Sydney!
Indeed,
TO ANYWHERE
within the
Sydney
Metro/Central
Coast/Newcastle/Wollongong
costs the SAME
for 1 or 2 boxes
- i.e. $A10
Registered post
and packing in
total.
Don't ask me why
but if I mail
you ONE stock
book it costs
exactly the same
as TWENTY books
costs!
Australia Post
calls anything
over 500g a
"parcel"
therefore 501
grams to 20
kilos costs the
identical dollar
figure to ship
to these areas.
So you save a
FORTUNE on
shipping
if buying your stockbooks in
one order.
REMEMBER:
It is a great
idea to now and
again re-house
ALL your
stamps. At
this price why
not do that NOW?
Stockbooks
10-15 years old WILL
have mould
growing on the
pages if stored
in Australia.
NO doubt
about it.
In any coastal
areas it will
start in
well under 10
years. And on
black pages it
is VERY hard -
indeed almost
impossible - to
see with the
naked eye. You
WILL see it
using a UV lamp
- go check your
books! For a
measly $26 a
new stockbook to
put your $1,000s
of stamps into a
brand new clean
book makes
superb sense.
In 25 years of
stamp dealing I
have learnt one
truism.
No collector can
EVER have too
many empty
stockbooks!
Just because you
"think" you will
not use 10 or 20
(or 30 or 40 or
50) you are
WRONG. Trust
me

45c - Ian Thorpe- winning the Men's Swimming 400m Freestyle

SET OF NINETY
SIX DIFFERENT SHEETLETS OF TEN! Fresh mint unhinged and imperf. The then
current Hitler German 12pf letter rate stamp design
lampooned with smiling Hitler ‘Death Mask’. Originals were
part of the World War 2 USA Office Of Strategic Services
(OSS) “Operation Cornflake” propaganda campaign to undermine
the German public. Details of this wide ranging stamp
propaganda campaign were not found until shortly after
the death of wartime USA President Franklin D. Roosevelt -
whose stamp collection was sold at auction and
official letters outlining this issue were discovered among
it. The original "Skull" stamps were key part
of a high level clandestine plan to undermine the morale of
the average German citizen. The Allies felt that if many
German people started receiving Anti-Nazi propaganda in
their morning mail delivered punctually at breakfast time by
the mailman, they would feel that their "German Empire" was
falling apart from within. They were the brainchild of General "Wild
Bill" Donovan, head of the OSS - the U.S. espionage agency
during World War II (that later became the CIA) who ordered
the original stamps printed by OSS operations in
Switzerland. The OSS decided that the best way to
smuggle the mail into the regular German postal system was
to bomb mail trains. In addition to the bombs possibly
destroying the trains, they dropped sacks of mail containing
Anti-Nazi propaganda. During the confusion of cleaning up
the wreck, the false mail sacks were mixed with the damaged
German mail. The OSS re-created all aspects of the
German Postal system from real business return addresses to
many thousands of names and addresses pulled from the
telephone directories. They even replicated the mail bags,
postal markings and every other detail of the postal
system. Every letter was franked with the fake "Skull"
stamps. On opening the letter, they would find it filled
with anti-Nazi propaganda often including the 12pf red "Futsches
Reich" stamp. "War is Hell" as we all know and Donovan
wrote to Roosevelt: "Every fortnight approximately 500
to 1200 copies of the Frankfurter Zeitung are likewise sent
into Germany where they are mailed to individuals whose
addresses appear in the death notices of soldiers who are
reported to have died for the fatherland." The original forgeries are fully
catalogued in Michel, and of course are rare and expensive
and seldom are offered on the market. A huge amount of
detailed info on this amazing propaganda campaign, and the
Hitler forgeries and reprints can be found here: Surely be useful for Judiaca or Germany
or USA or forgery collectors? One x fresh imperforate MUH

Papua New Guinea 1994
Rare "Emergency Overprints":
Papua New
Guinea 1994 "Emergency Overprints": I do now have, and
have always had, the largest stock of these overprints in the world.
Buy DIRECT from the original "source"! Thousands of collectors NEED
this set to complete their collections. Only 45,000 were ever printed,
NONE were sold by the agents, Papua
New Guinea Bureau, or even Australia Post. Nearly all were used up on
genuine commercial mail. Not discovered by stamp world until months
after all the key values all used up! I first reported their existence
to the stamp world.
"Set of 11" - SG # 730/740. Michel #
714 -724.
Scott # 860/871. ASC Cat $A420.
From
April 20th 1967 to August 1970. Scott 938 -1046 complete, (less the cheap
#1019/37)
i.e. you are buying 81 different stamps in total here.
Full colour perforated forgeries/reprints (no idea which is correct to be
honest!) in a handsome 8 page, 7" x 10" full colour folder/stockbook, all
neatly arranged in clear hawid mounts. Includes all 4 of the
valuable se-tenant strips 5 and the
super rare
1968 8f "Entire Nation Is Red" stamp, Scott #999a.
That
stamps alone could surely sell for AT LEAST for what I sell the entire
collection for! Scott is around $US 6,686.65 for used stamps.
(Mint catalogue of course is many times higher still!) My price
even for a single set is WAY under 1% of Scott for the genuine stamps
i.e. 1% Scott comes to $US 66.86 ( = $A 110 ) per album of 81
stamps complete. However, all I will charge you on credit card is
$A 100 = $US 65 approx for the entire collection. EVERY
collector of China or whole world with a printed album, pretty well has all
the pages blank for this very scarce era. Most will readily consider
buying these spacefiller attractive forgeries than live with blank spaces
for eternity in this era in their album. Even if you sell these at around
2% of Scott catalogue
you nearly
TRIPLE your money.
Profit margin considerably higher if you buy in bulk - see the figures
below. Would make VERY interesting
eBay auction
lots! One client sent these out in APS approval books marked correctly as
not genuine and told me he got back around $500 nett for that effort! He
bought more and hopes to repeat that massive return.

The Scarcest
Australian Decimal Regular Issue!
The "Australia
99"
Fully IMPERFORATE Navigator Mini-Sheets.
The big surprise of this mega success story
International show. Produced so that you could take them and have
hand created “A99” perfins punched in.
NEITHER were on sale at Post Offices around
the country, only by mail order,
and even then they sold out in weeks after the show. WELL worth
socking away a handful - they ARE
catalogued and have album page provision in
EVERY
leading album in the world.
The IMPERFORATE
Navigator mini sheets issued at the
exhibition caused a sensation when it was
discovered only 30,000 sets were issued -
and about half of those received the "A99"
perfin. (See lowest sheet photo.) The
"brown" sheet all got a rare 15½ perf
gauge. Therefore only 15,000 stamps can
exist with that perf.
I have good stocks and these are easily the
scarcest post-war Australia post issue.

of EACH book, 1981
to 2000, including all the expensive "Black Leather"
Executive books, and the Deluxe brown boxed 1988 Bicentennial set of 5 albums which cost
$50 to buy ex PO. (My price $40 if purchased
separately) - and this is a very popular line for me.
I am always buying year books and
always have a ton of stock ... an entire wall to ceiling bookshelf full in fact!

Special Australia Post '2000 Olympic Gold Medal Winners' Album:
(Missed by MOST collectors!)
Australia Post rushed out this special album, with all 16 Gold Medal Winner
sheets inside, perfectly housed on black #1 size Hanger sheets. A LOT of
dealers and collectors overlooked this official issue, as it did not receive
much publicity at all. As "Olympics" is a major thematic/topical worldwide,
this will always be a key item. And it is of course an 100% OFFICIAL Australia Post Album.
The FACE value of the stamps inside alone was $A72, and the album and Hagner
sheets cost extra. I bought a bunch of these as I had a hunch they'd be
overlooked. They will be shipped to you still in the Australia Post white
cardboard protective mailing box they arrived in! 
And ALSO for keen collectors of 2000 Olympic stamp
issues. I bought a few sets of all NINETY SIX Digital
printed sets of $4.50 sheetlets of 10. i.e. all 16 gold medal winners
- from all 6 states with applicable state emblems in red at lower right --
see Linn's story above for more detail. i.e. Cathy Freeman sheet with 6
different state emblems at lower right - or so on for all 15 other Gold
Medal winners.
I had very good contacts with Australia Post at
this time, so managed to secure all 96 - a tough (near impossible! job for
many as some sold out in hours at the applicable GPO's. EVERY single one of
these 96 different sheets is listed and priced in the new ACSC. (Australian
Commonwealth Specialists' Catalogue.) You could ring 10 dealers and I doubt
any could assist you with this set of 96.
I have a few MUH sets of all 96 sheets. FACE is $A432, and my price for
either is $A675, or just the
standard New Issue dealer mark-up. I reserve the right to increase this
price at any time.

(Ruined Empire)12pf red Propaganda forgery Mini Sheet of 4:

4 stamps over 25 years ago in my first year of stamp

have not seen them since until cleaning up this month!
I have no idea of their origin, but they are
obviously well over 25 years old.

Australia 1980s Bank Training Notes
What a great sideline to any Australian
numismatic collection. These notes were printed by Note Printing
Australia to allow staff of banks etc to train in counting and handling
large sums of cash.
Each is double sided, and printed in the colour and exact SIZE (i.e. all
are different sized) of the issued paper banknotes, and each is inscribed
along base: "For Training Purposes Only". Best of all, these
were printed on a special high security paper held in storage since 1946
when it was intended to be used for a new 5/- note.
This paper has masses of colour silk threads distributed through it as an
anti-counterfeit measure. Your can see these beautifully on this scan.
That paper is therefore 60 years old - from the reign of King George VI,
and was NEVER issued for banknotes, so what a timely opportunity to add
these to your collection?
One set of 5 as shown
for $A40,
or superb re-seller line -
FIVE such sets of 5, with Face Value $A925 - for just $A90

IMPORTANT NOTE
... all my stamps - on this page or other pages are charged in
AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS at the $A prices shown.
Where I have used a £Stg or $US price etc conversion in text on any offer
at any time - that is to be treated as very APPROXIMATE as it may have
been computed a while back. It was correct at that time, but $A exchange
rates have been VERY volatile in recent times. Please use the
spinning gold currency converter found on Home Page of my website to
ascertain the current EXACT amount in your own currency according to
today's mid-rate.
Remember - I will always charge your credit
card the $A sum shown for each lot, (plus
shipping and insurance) and NOT the sum shown as rough approximation in a
non-Australian currency.
There are NO nasty
15% "Buyer's Commissions" or other such outrageous fees added to
the price YOU pay when you deal with Glen Stephens. A $1,000
Kangaroo stamp from me costs $1,000 plus shipping. You could
bid "$1,000" for the same Kangaroo stamp from an "Auction" house
(who in Sydney OFTEN owns the stamp themselves anyway!) and it might
cost $1,000 plus 15% "Buyer Fee" plus 10% GST on that $1,150 = the "$1000"
stamp is now invoiced at
$1,265. All
depends on whether possibly saving $265 is important to you I guess.
while buying at bargain prices. I charge NO nasty, nasty 15-20%
"Buyer's Commission" on stamps
like every "Auction" does.
