Stamp collection donations

Since the late 1920s, the BMS Stamp Bureau has been raising money for BMS World Mission by receiving and selling postage stamps and other collectibles. In 1928, this first appeared in the BMS accounts as a contribution of £60 and, for almost a hundred years, you have continued to generate life-changing sums in this way.

Over time, the way we operate the Stamp Bureau has needed to change. Sadly, we can no longer accept loose stamps or stamps cut from envelopes.

However, we still gratefully accept:

• Stamp collections

• First days covers

• Presentation packs

• Mint stamps

• Albums

• Stamp hobby accessories

• Other philatelic material

Items sent to the Stamp Bureau are sorted and priced by our expert volunteers, and then sold on to collectors and dealers. The income raised is passed on to BMS to share the good news of Jesus and the abundance of life in him around the world.

Please also note that we are unable to track how much a donation has sold for because donations are usually sold in small lots over a period of time, and sometimes in with other lots, to achieve the best price.
