A free, honest valuation

We give free valuations because we would rather you knew what you have than guessed at it. Your stamps will be assessed by an accredited, full-time dealer with more than twenty years in the trade.

You will get an honest figure: realistic market value, neither an inflated catalogue total nor a lowball offer. There is no cost, and no obligation to sell.

Who values your stamps

Daniel Ardley, founder of Blackheath Stamps

Your valuation is done by me personally, a full-time, accredited dealer with more than twenty years in the trade. A real, named specialist gives you an honest, realistic figure, with no obligation.

How it works, in brief

  1. Photograph your collection.

    The album pages and close-ups of the better items.

  2. Email the photographs.

    Send them to daniel@blackheathstamps.co.uk.

  3. We reply within a few days.

    With an honest valuation of what your stamps are realistically worth.

The full process, with photographing tips, is in our guide to getting your stamps valued.

What you will find out

Your valuation will tell you what your stamps are realistically worth, which items matter and which do not, and the best way to sell anything you wish to. For a collection with better material, that includes an assessment of the individual items; for a simpler one, a guide to its overall worth.

Free, and no obligation

To be completely clear: the valuation costs nothing and commits you to nothing. If you only want to know what you have, that is perfectly fine. We will make you an offer if you would like one, and where an auction would get you more, we will tell you so honestly.
