Here's the section where I am offering items for sale. After all, this is how I currently make my living. I must sell an item or two now and then to stay in business and to keep this website running. I hope when browsing the listings that you will find something for your collection. |
This Confederate States Stamps and Postal History dealership is now strictly Internet. Printed listings of the CSA stamps, covers, and currency are no longer offered by mail. The printed listings were simply too large, too labor intensive, and too expensive to produce with too little return from non Internet using mail buyers to justify continuing the practice. The vast majority of collectors are now well versed in using the Internet. Please check the "Show Section" of this website to see which shows I will be attending as I usually attend all the Civil War Philatelic Society Conventions and Meetings as well as a few major shows throughout the year. These on-line CSA Net Price Lists are updated frequently by removing the items as soon as they are no longer available. New material is posted to these listings on a continuous basis as it comes in and is prepared for sale. Next to the links below are the dates when new material was last added to that particular listing. In order to take advantage of newly listed material, it is recommended that this website be checked on a periodic and regular basis. One never knows what I may come up with as I am constantly on the lookout for good quality material. Newly listed material very often sells quite quickly after posting. Before examining the Net Price Lists, please review the "Sales Policies and How to Order" section. All images of the stamps, covers, and currency can be viewed with any browser. The images are all 300 dpi and should all be sharp and clear. Images of ALL the covers, stamps, and currency items on these listings are available for immediate viewing. These images can be easily accessed within the documents. |

The CSA Postal History and CSA Stamp Databases are fully searchable. If you are looking for a cover or a stamp related to a specific city or town, or perhaps a cover with your family name on the address, or perhaps a military address or endorsement related to a specific unit, then just enter your keyword(s) below. Click CSA SEARCH for a short tutorial and explanation (opens in new window) of how best to use the Search Engine with my databases. Those who actually read the short search tutorial and follow the guidelines will have much better success with their searches. This tutorial is more detailed than the "Search Tips" accessed from the Search Engine itself. The search will show results in the CSA Postal History, CSA Stamp, CSA Currency, and the Civil War Period CDV's databases. The USA Modern Mint Stamps on my secondary website are NOT included in this local search engine. Search results appear in a new window or separate tab. For a more detailed or more refined search, use the "Advanced Search" option which also opens in a new window or separate tab.

In order to have CSA material to sell, I must first buy it. I am always on the lookout to buy good quality Confederate stamps, covers and currency.If you have any Confederate material to sell (individual items, multiple items, or an entire collection), please contact me with your asking price. I will pay a fair price for good quality material. The emphasis is on "good quality material." Significantly damaged material and "Spacefiller" type material is not desired. Please no fakes, facsimiles, or reprints. Please be advised that under no circumstances will a valuation or an offer be made on Confederate material sight unseen. An offer can only be made after the material has actually been examined in hand for authenticity and condition.![]() |

I have a secondary
web
site with its own separate domain
strictly for the sale of mint modern USA stamps from the year 1929
through 2000
www.jlkstamps.com . Many collectors have told me that there
is a need for such a site as it can be difficult to acquire odd
individual USA stamps to fill holes in a modern collection. If you need
to fill a few holes in your USA collection or would just like to visit
my secondary USA site, please use the direct link below.

Of late there has been
much
publicity both on the Internet and
in Linn's Stamp News
concerning various Internet Philatelic Auction Scams. I am asked
frequently by collectors who do not understand these scams and have
little or no experience with the Internet Auctions to explain some of
these scams and also to give suggestions about how to protect oneself
from these scams. Many collectors are understandably apprehensive about
bidding in Internet Philatelic Auctions. I have therefore prepared a
short page explaining some of these auction scams with suggestions
about how to bid as safely as possible in such an environment. I hope
this will be of some assistance.
