A most interesting event.Wish I was able to attend sounds like fun.The "junk" lots are terrific shipping here would kill any real worth.I've noticed that I guess you would call them speculators here bid up odd lots.Most coming from people of little actual stamp knowledge just thinking they are getting lots of rare stamps at great price.The result is the lot goes for more than is really worth and someone posting endlessly online asking someone to identify all the rare stamps they "found".

Very accurate appraisal Froggie, wait till you see the realised prices, usually around $300 -$350 |
