I found my first stamp collection 13 years ago at a Salvation Army in San Diego and I was hooked from day one! I began to amass more collections and spent a few years researching the stamp market. I started advertising and making offers on stamp collections. I was eventually informed that my offers were much more generous than the offers they were receiving from larger stamp companies and local de
alers. I began to take steps toward establishing Nick’s Stamps as the fairest stamp company in the business! After 10 years in business, we are happy to say that we buy almost every collection that we view. We base our offers on what’s fair as opposed to the dealer’s approach of buying it for the lowest amount possible for quick profit. We cannot always pay what customers expect or what they originally paid for the material. However, we take pride in offering the most for the collections that our customers have spent many hours and dollars putting together. Selling Your Stamps:
The first step in selling your stamp collection is contacting us by phone. After a brief description of the collection and a few simple questions, we can determine whether the material can be shipped to us or if we should travel to view your collection material. Shipping:
If we have determined the collection needs to be shipped to us, depending on the type of
collection, we will first determine the best service for shipment. The first step is contacting us with
the tracking information. After we receive and evaluate the collection we will contact you within 1
to 3 days with a fair offer. All communication will be done via telephone (no waiting on emails). Shipping expense:
Seller is responsible for the costs of shipping the collection to us. However, after evaluating and
making an offer on your collection, unlike other stamp companies, if we do not purchase the
collection, we cover all return shipping expenses. Additionally, if we do come to an agreement and
complete the sale, we will also reimburse you the cost of the initial shipment to us. Travel Schedule:
We can usually make arrangements within 2 weeks to come to you. Although most
collections are shipped to us, we do not recommend shipping large investment collections; in these
instances we will travel to you. For more information please visit our website at www.nicksstamps.com
