Year sets to us are a convenient way of making our average sales
of
larger size and of higher value. We can therefore sell things in
bigger
units at lower prices. You will find that some year units offer
very
good
savings, and that some others have only a minimal price
differential.
There is no compromise on quality; you will find that the standard
of goods is every bit as good as is promised in our commemoratives
price
list, under the "Quality"
heading.
We start to quote prices for year sets as from 1963 (later for
packs
and covers), as before that date one year very often is equal to
one
set
!
Obviously, where something does not exist, it is not included in
the
year set. (For example where a stamp was issued, but not a
presentation
pack. Again, refer back to our main commemoratives
list to see what is included.)
If you don't need the whole unit as noted here, please contact us
for a quote.
