*RSC classification values are based on a number of factors including known realizations at various online and public auctions both past and present.
The SG Catalogue prices are what you would expect to pay if you walked into the Gibbons retail store.
These prices are invariably higher than general market prices.
(See table.)
Condition of stamp will affect the value either up or down.
Plated material, especially the more sought-after positions, often attracts higher prices (10% - 50%).
Market influences (demand and supply) will affect the market value.
Market values offered are one man's general guideline rather than a definitive and undisputed real value.
Expect updates.
Input always appreciated and desired.
