Stamp Collecting Advice

Grading Common Stamps

Not every stamp collector will agree with me, but the grading of common stamps and selling them for huge premiums, really ticks me off.  I believe that it is a terrible practice and is a truly poor investment.  Taking a common stamp from the 1940's, 50's, 60's and 70's, and sending it in to be graded a 95 or 100 is truly ridiculous.  Mint sheets of these stamps sell for less than face value and most sheets will have a high grade stamp or two in them.  Don't be fooled by this deceptive practice.
