Did you read the rules before you began posting? Everyone uses Photobucket on this site - and you must, too.

It would have been preferable to name the country the stamps belong to, in your heading. It's pretty meaningless as it stands.

With the rotated pictures, the thread is pretty useless, too. I think your stamps may all be worth a few cents, but I'm not turning my head to look at the rotated ones.

I supect the mods will lock this thread and ask you to start again, using the accepted standards that are employed, here.

Practice posting from Photobucket here: viewtopic.php?t=284

Nothing seems to be expensive, but it seems to be a good start if you wish to expand on it.

Well I just read the rules and nowhere does it say you have to use Photobucket. It does say most users do. He's asked for advice. Give him advice instead of being at *.

Afraid nothing much of value at first glance but there might be some interesting postmarks considering the volume

None of the images showed up in the thread, which is what we go for here.

By chance I clicked on one of the "error" screens where an image should be, and discovered I was taken to the photo on the Image Shack site. Clicking on links to go to an outside site is not the way we do things here, not to mention that one cannot comment on an item if they're stuck clicking back and forth to the picture which can't be seen in the reply or original question.

From the image links I clicked on, I saw a bunch of Malaysian States material that is all easily found in catalogues. Of course there are various printings probably, but those are often not possible to distinguish from a scan, ie. different watermarks, or chalky v. ordinary paper.

The name of the issuer is on the stamps, get any catalogue and you'll find them. For some reason mixed amongst the Malay are some GB GeoVI and early QEII defins that are of no commercial value. Overall, a lot of the stamps looked slightly damaged, ie. missing corners, which would pretty much render them worthless in terms of $ value, unless they catalogue for $100+, then you could get 5-10% of normal retail.
