Selling stamps in/from Norway (not only Norwegian stamps, but… all country stamps) is not just easy. Because of high postage rates I think buyers avoid lots sold from norway (on e-bay, Delcampe etc.) I myself always look at postage rates before bidding. Some countrys/ sellers operate with resonnable rates for letters to Norway and I use them. I guess it the same the other way. But the place to sell small stamp lot's (in Norway) is Facebook. There are some selling groups with easy rules. No fee, just a quick and easy way to sell your leftovers. (see image from a lot I have for sale now) You might not get a whole lot for the stamps, but It give some buck back. Screnshoot from my cell phone But some of the lots will not sell. what I was thinking was that lot's I can't sell will end up as 1. Cheep selling lot's on TSF where some % (lets say 25%) of the selling price donates to the STF. 2. Just make it a give away to members of the STF. I don't sell to be rich , I sell to get rid of stuff I don't need, and like the thought that someone else can use the stuff and maybe I sell to justify new baying's. So, is alternative 1 ok? I guess alternative 2 is ok PS: the above picture (is just an example) and already has a bid (on Facebook) and are not up for sell or free giveaway here at STF

Have you considered trading?
One of the reasons I started trading for Common Ireland was to be able to trade lots like these and it has been a great success. Pick an area that you like to flyspeck that is fairly common - for example early Germany. I offer mine at super generous rates, usually half or a third of what is offered. I end up with something new to play with without spending anything and I clear out my duplicates.

Yes I trade a lot (at colnect). But I might will try to something new (for me). I have not done to much flyspecking and things like that. But with reason interest for early German definitives I might can trade something here at STF. So this will be a third option.
