If I don't know anything about stamp collection and have come into a collection how do I know I am getting a fair price when I sell the collection?
Contact a stamp collecting society/organisation and ask them if anyone could help you. They would know better than anyone as that is their specialty. Ask them if you'd do better selling the collection as a whole, or selling the stamps in smaller groups or individually. Another idea is to take your collection (or part of it) around to a few shops that trade in stamp/coin collections and a few get quotes. Try getting at least three quotes to start to form a picture of what it might be worth.

If you had purchased valuable items for the collection, you would already have a good idea of value.
