Which seems to be what the seller did here. There is no real rule of thumb. I just bought a 5/- 2nd wmk CTO, that has same... |

Red/White/Blue Registered envelope is sadly pre-paid and no stamps, and public cannot track it on line.
$3 using a nice stamp is a no brainer to me on a $52 buy, IF you trust the seller, and that after all is what it always boils down to.

One Pound Jimmy no way of telling watermark from those bad scans. One is torn. The watermarked stamp is ALWAYS sideways watermark. Something the 100 dreamers a year that email me about them do not seem to understand.
