About "olavemil"
Hello all. Now it's been a long time since I updated this page, far too long. But time is scarce and there is not much time left over for selling philatelic material. I try a little though. The main areas right now has been Antarctic and Arctic material, censored mail from WW1 and WW2. I have a lot of other material as well, and, given time, it will appear. This is material like Scout covers (mainly Scandinavian), Christmas Seals and U.S. covers of many kinds. Plus loads of postcards - not quite sure how to handle them though. And a lot of other areas. There should be something for most of you I think.
A few words about myself. My real name is Olav Emil Skjervik (so there's the explanation of my trading name). I am a Norwegian, living in the southwestern part of Norway, not far from the town Stavanger. I have been a stamp collector for a long time. I am also a radio amateur (callsign LA2GKA) and happens to be interested in geneaology on top of that.

Shipping and handling.
The exchange rate between US dollars and Norwegian kroner is still low at the moment although it has increased in value from it't lowest point around 5,00 Norwegian kroner to the dollar. Present rate of exchange is around 6,00 Norwegian kroner to the dollar.Unfortunately rate increases and genaral price rising (even if low) makes it difficult to reduce my P & H. Until further notice I shall charge postage and handling as follows:
- for letters up to 20 gram, US$ 2.00
- for letters between 20 and 50 gram, US$ 4.00
- for letters between 50 and 100 gram, US$ 5.00
- for letters between 100 and 350 gram, US$ 10.00
- heavier letters / packages will be quoted in each case
- registraton fee has risen very much and registered letters will now cost an additional US$ 16.00. I will use registered post only when the buyer asks for it.
Please note I will always try to combine shipment if you buy more than 1 item, to reduce postage costs as much as possible. Don't take too much notice to the P&H quoted with each item - the eBay listing system requires it, but to use American standards for Norweagian prices is not all that easy :)
Payment methods.
I prefer that my customers use PayPal. If you want to pay in other ways, but please ask me first. To pay small amounts in check / money order is inconvenient as it cost around $15 to cash a check in the Norwegian banks. Checks should only be used for amounts from $150 and upwards and only after agreement. Cash cannot be used "legally" on eBay any more. For minor amounts mint US stamps may be used, I will return mint stamps as small change, normally US stamps, but other may be used depending on where you reside and what I have got in stock.If you are able to use electronic transfer system (SWIFT, Fedwire, Internet banking and such), it's probably OK, but contact me before you do.

Catalogs I use.
When I put Norwegian stamps up for sale I use the NORGESKATALOGEN 2000 (NK 2000). This is the standard catalogue of the postage stamps of Norway. As far as I am able to I will give a cross reference to Scott, although this may not always be possible. When I put up UK stamps I use the 1994 issue of Stanley Gibbons "Great Britain Concise stamp catalogue". For other Scandinavian countries I will either use AFA (Denmark, Faroes, Greenland, DVI, Iceland) or Facit (Sweden), with cross reference to Scott if possible. I have finally got myself a complete range of Scott catalogs (1998), and I will use this if necessary.
My guarantee to buyers.
Even though I try to give the best possible description of the stamps I'm selling I may overlook faults or in other ways make mistakes like using wrong catalogue number etc. or pointing to a wrong picture. In those cases I will of course make a full refund if so wanted, provided the fault(s) or misrepresentation are not easily detectable on the picture, in the text or in the two combined.
CHRISTMAS SEALS.
For the time being I'm not offering Christmas Seals for sale. I have many in stock still, and will list them sometimes during the winter.
ANTARCTIC AND ARCTIC EXPEDITION COVERS
Although I'm low in stock on Antarctic material, I am able to secure new stock now and then and I will post them for sale as I get them ready for sale.
