I just let them accumulate and have never sold them. Since being with Kantar/Spectos I have about £400 worth and about 12 Presentation packs. It's reassuring to know they will always go up in value.Midgetgem8200 said:Just had my presentation pack of stamps. Is it better just to use these as normal stamps or do you find you can get more money back for them selling on ebay?0 -
I would just wait and see.MikeyPGT said:I'm due to start another UA survey on 31 July however there is no UA Mail survey section showing on the app - I did query this with Spectos when it vanished but (no surprise) have not had a response to my ticket. Should I try emailing them or just wait and see if it re-appears in time for Monday?
Even if you emailed them today, you’re unlikely to get any response for at least 2 weeks!“Hardware: The parts of a computer system that can be thrown out of the nearest window!”1 -
You're not going to get anywhere near face value by selling these on ebay. If you've got hundreds of stamps, prefer the money, and don't mind selling them below value (as they've not cost you anything) then sell them on. If you want to get the most value and think you will use them, then hang on and use them as ordinary stamps as and when.Midgetgem8200 said:Just had my presentation pack of stamps.

In my experience it usually pops up on the App over the weekend. I would just wait till at least the day you’re supposed to start the UA survey.XDA said:

I no longer worry about things like this. Life is too short. All I want is to get paid for what I do.Graceglow said:

Not for a long time - unless you have River Wildlife https://shop.royalmail.com/special-stamp-issues/river-wildlife and you got the error printing. Those might go for more than face value to a collector.elsien said:

When thie swapout scheme started I was buying stamps on ebay for around half price. That was my target. The probelm with selling stamps is that they are as good as cash. It is easy to be robbed.NBLondon said:
