Beats me. I don't tend to go into such minutae. A search of any good Italian catalogue will give you the answer.
There are probably members in the club that would have this information.
I personally don't collect new Italian issues.
All the best. |

| In the last 3 days I have discovered an Australian auction site OZtion.com.au that rivals eBay, and is much better and easier to use than Bidferret (modelled on Delcampe). The site is as friendly to use as eBay, as I would assume it is modelled on eBay. So at least we have alternatives that collecto... |

| As a collector what I am doing on ebay is selling stamps/coins that I bought mainly at issue price from Australia Post and Royal Australian Mint, over the last 40 years. When I sell I am not like a dealer who has overheads and needs to make a reasonable profit. My minimum is to recoup the cost of th... |

| [i] That is why there is a system to use through ebay and Paypal. It allows you to get some redress. I have used it as a buyer to get a refund (Paypal) several times when the item has not arrived, or arrived and not as described and returned. Another remember reported here paypal levy $US25 "a... |

| If a seller subsequently sends a stamp with a bullet hole in it and refuses to refund, a negative comment about the sellers ethics can result in an equal negative against the buyer - the feedback system should be different for buyers and sellers - sellers' feedback should only indicate if the buyer... |

I send it the way it was paid (mailing preference) for with a copy of the final auction printout, I even give the buyer an indication of when they might receive it based on Australia Post times and my experience. I communicate with the buyer... |

| The first time I received negative feedback it really made me angry. I was the buyer and the seller gave me a glowing comment but then pushed the negative feedback button twice and gave me a less than perfect 99.99% which will forever remain as long as I still use my current sign in. Ebay wash their... |
