Authenticity guarantee

If any item bought from us proves to be a forgery, we refund the full amount including postage both ways, however long ago the purchase was made.

An opinion from any recognised expert or expertising committee is enough. We do not insist on an expert of our choosing.

What we do so it does not happen

Every item is photographed on both sides at high resolution. You see the actual copy, not a catalogue illustration.

Items in areas known for forgeries — overprints, provisionals, imperforate varieties — are described separately, stating whether an expert opinion exists.

Where there is no certificate we say so plainly, and the price reflects it.
