image Worldwide Massive Lot of Stock from Retired Packet Maker, contains a great variety of material, including hundreds of complete sheets, hundreds of sets, topicals, country collections (in packet form, such as "1,000 different", etc), singles, souvenir sheets, and more. A very valuable lot which contains loads of expensive sets and stamps, many ranging in the $20 to $50 per set, we even noted some items cataloguing several $100s. Countries include Russia, Tanzania, Czechoslovakia, British Commonwealth, Hungary, Iraq, Romania, Canada, and more. Most of the lot is already sorted, either by country, or by "packet" lot (for example one envelope contains Scott $3,472 worth of worldwide stamps, another is catalogued at $2,700, etc). Noted a bag with 100s of GB "Penny Reds" on large pieces and noted many items cataloguing hundreds to thousands, but these need to be looked at closely. A very useful lot for online resellers, and well worth a close look as we only did a cursory look as there is so much material (photos really do not do this lot justice). Prices given here appear to date from the late 1990s. The whole lot fills three Banker's Boxes which weigh in at 65 pounds total. (Image)
