Hello I bought a very good collection from Iceland (will post pictures soon) but also got a lot of good Sweden in the Leuchtturm album. Will probably sell the Swedish ones, have too many countries now and have to shrink the collection. But where do you start, better to sell all of Sweden in one load and get rid of the "job" of splitting up. I find it difficult to find a good routine for own valuation, literature and sales that makes it feel "useful": I don't do philately to earn a living, but I like that it makes economic sense, if you can use such a word in philately.

My rough guide when selling stamps is to think around 10% of Facit and hope for 20% around one fifth . since you are quoting Facit numbers you should be able to figure it out

yes, quality, demand, general interest, etc. affect the price all the time. So I'm probably looking for input on the value, which I know few will say anything about :-) agree, if a CB pair in good quality is listed at 200 euros, one can expect 20 euros discussing price is perhaps most interesting if it is rare...and on certain/various websites I see that "rare" should not be used for anything worth less than $5,000 I myself do not completely agree with the "price limit" for rare.
