The Germany list will now be divided into the following sections : 1 : German States - regular stamps, specialised stamps, postal history. 2: Germany (Eagles & Germanias, Colonies, WWI Occupations) - regular stamps, specialised stamps, postal history. 3 : Germany (Inflation, Plebiscites, Weimar) - regular stamps, specialised stamps, postal history. 4 : III Reich (Hitler period, WWII Occupations) - regular stamps, specialised stamps, postal history. 5 : Postwar (Zones, West Germany, West Berlin, DDR all to around 1956) - regular stamps, specialised stamps, postal history. Lists will be produced on a rota, approximately one list per month. Please keep this list in a handy place. You are welcome to order from it several times (we have a reasonably good stock of most of the regular stamps - though specialised stamps and postal history are of course "one-off", first come, first served). For the Germany lists, half our customers want Michel numbering and the other half prefer SG, so both are provided here. Hope it doesn't make things too complex! When you order, please mention whether you are using SG or Michel numbers. TERMS OF SALE Minimum order 20 please, to allow for bank charges and business costs. I always find a few items sell out quickly. If you can list alternatives, or pay by credit card or blank limited cheque, this helps us both. I aim to send out normal orders from stock by return post. (Occasionally orders may take a little longer if the stock is at an exhibition). Prices are in British p. Exchange rates: 1 = USA $ = Euro 1.25 Free first class or airmail (at customer's risk), or 7 extra for insurance if required. Orders for 200+ sent by registered mail free of charge. Visa/ Mastercard cards are welcome. You can also pay by cheque in p, or Euro (cash, or cheque on a French bank account). We look forward to your order!
