Red Sea Terrorist - EXCHANGE RATE ADJUSTMENT on imported products below:

The current Yemeni ongoing Red Sea Terrorist attacks, and currency market uncertainty, due to the ugly Ukraine and the ever increasing Middle East Wars and tensions, has seen the Australian Dollar soften and fluctuate.  Far worse, as we know, due to the terrorist Yemen rebels Red Sea attacks on commercial shipping, cargo boats are now needing to route via the Cape Of Good Hope, and freight rates to here have hence soared 25%. The kilo cost of air shipping has also rocketed up, aviation fuel has increased a lot, and DHL/Fedex are now often needed, at Ransom Rates.  My landed cost of anything imported has also SOARED since, of course
 
All lots on this page, being fully imported from Europe, will thus be invoiced at 10% higher than the older AUD prices shown here, until some normality returns.  With supplier base price hikes as well, I still am making WAY less than I was, even at that level.  Cost of a shipping container from Europe-Aust has skyrocketed in recent months etc.  Shipping from Europe to here is also taking 16-20 weeks by sea, not the usual 7 days airpost, unless you pay an absolute fortune for DHL/Fedex Express Courier etc.  But I *DO* have stocks of these items - so secure them NOW!   Glen

 

Genuine European "Hagner" sheets.
 And quality 'Leather' Binder/Slipcases.
 Both offered here
DIRT cheap!

Over my 50 years as a dealer, I must have sold literally many 100,000s of genuine European made ‘Hagner’ sheets. You’d be amazed at how many clients order 800 or 1,000 a time. They are tried and proven, and are incredibly versatile, long lasting, and clearly SAFE for stamp storage of all types. Housing them in the superb black deep grained ‘Leather Look’ binders really adds to their longevity, and the clean and dust free storage of the stamps inside. Special discount deals below to buy both together.

The landed cost of imported and 100% genuine European made Hagner storage sheets has DOUBLED over the past decade or so. In just 10 years, this is a larger base price rise, than in the previous 20 years. The new recommended retail of $A21.95 for a pack of 10 is not high really - www.tinyurl.com/RetHag - and even that is about to go up it seems, so buying them in bulk below direct off me, saves you a FORTUNE!!  You can save literally more than 30% off Retail buying from me in larger lots.

An even cheaper per page storage option involves German made “Lighthouse” stamp stockbooks, at well under the storage page cost of Hagners.  I have of course great deals on them too here - tinyurl.com/LighthouseSB

However for very many stamp related uses, Hagner sheets are simply indispensable, as they are very versatile to use – you can add pages in and out of binders at will in seconds. In a stockbook, adding items means moving 1000s of existing stamps quite often. And if you want them for not much more than $A1 each in carton buys, THIS is the place to order them from - around 30% UNDER RECOMMENDED RETAIL in bulk buys as you can see! A local letter or postcard costs $A1.90 to post today, and a small coffee is well over $5 etc.

Stock supplies are always an issue. The Europeans are often short on some sizes, and my local stock can get wiped in one order. A FDC collector ordered 2,500 x #2 Hagners to re-do all his FDC collection last Xmas, and that wiped me out same day. 250 packs of 10, or 6 factory cartons of them. New stock takes MONTHS to arrive from Europe. So DO ensure you order enough for ongoing needs, as keeping these on hand here is a tough juggling act!

The locally made “Kanga” and “Eureka” etc branded (and now often UNBRANDED!) stamp stock-sheets, were often sloppily made, and un-professionally packaged, and I refused to sell them, on that basis alone. Strips fell off, backing card was often thin, and many pages literally fell apart due to sloppy and inaccurate guillotining etc. Buying official and genuine European made ’HAGNER’ sheets are a wise purchase.

These 100% GENUINE ‘Hagner’ Sheets come of course, all neatly sealed cello packaged in TENS per size ex Europe, so your sheets stay dry and clean and fresh until you use them. Factory cartons of each size are 400 .. i.e. if you use large numbers of #2s for FDC, order a factory carton of 400 etc.

I’ll say no more about quality and reliability of the copycats, but the reason you pay more for a Mercedes, than a Toyota Corolla, is VERY evident after you compare the 2 next to each other. Both have 4 wheels and a motor - and there the similarity basically stops! Only GENUINE ‘Hagner’ sheets have the words ’HAGNER’ colourless embossed multiple times along the base. If it does *NOT* say that, you may possibly have a “Bangkok Rolex”.

If you REALLY want to buy genuine European made Hagner Sheets - below are my discount prices. If you want to take a chance on unknown origin, often poorly made, and untested, and often unbranded ‘copycat’ type local made brands - well, you were warned. It is YOUR money! And YOUR stamps that may suffer long term. And buying from Ebay etc you have zero idea what you are really getting.

 

  You simply tell me exactly WHICH packs you want to make up the 200 (or 400 or 800 etc) you are paying for.  You can  'mix and match'  however you wish, within each order - in your choice of packs of 10.
 
 
 

These are BEST quality European made sheets.  The original and the BEST - Market Leader for over 70 years.  European made Hagner System, genuine stock pages, are specified by many postal administrations throughout the world. Using a clear, fully synthetic adhesive, a crystal-clear polyester foil (free of softeners) which is strongly bonded, to chemically neutral, tough, thick black photo-card. 

The different stock page sizes will accommodate singles, pairs or blocks, strips 5, Mini Sheets, maxi sheets, souvenir sheets, covers, FDC, booklets, Postcards, and many more items besides!  The possibilities are truly endless.

Carefully selected superior thick black card, made of homogeneous sulphite pulp is used, with Mylar® film, and ‘sized’ with saponified rosin size, so as not to give off colour. This card has a neutral pH value - no harmful acids that RUIN your stamps. Cheaper Acidic cardboard generates “rust” and foxing/toning.

It is over 70 years since these genuine HAGNER style stock sheets came onto the market, AND they have been constantly improved and subtly fine-tuned. Today they are renowned for their unsurpassed quality, ease of use, and ideal protection for stamps. Long term tests under extreme conditions have proven official 'Hagner' stock sheets will retain their famous storage properties over many decades.

Senior Collectors and Postal Administrations and Museums and dealers worldwide, rely on these genuine 'HAGNER' brand stock sheets for the safe long-term storage and display of stamps. If these are the preferred medium of the professionals, they are PERFECT for you!
 
 
 

The size of the genuine Hagner standard stock-sheets is around A4 or ‘Quarto’ – i.e.  215 x 280 mm.  You can store them in nearly all standard main market 4 ring binders.  See the INSANELY low Deluxe Binder/Slipcase special discount offer below.  You NEED slipcases if you live in Australia, and want to curtail and combat rust/foxing/toning.

The pockets on the stock-sheets are approx the following heights in mm, from sheet #1, to sheet #8, in order:

 
 


242, 118, 79, 58, 46, 37, 32 and 28mm.

 

 
 

i.e. a #1 sheet (242mm deep) is large enough for a VERY large cover, a very large sheetlet, or a huge mini sheet like 'Ausipex 84' etc.  A #2 size is heavily used for FDC, covers, PNC, most miniature sheets etc. Right through to #8 size sheets, each of which can house 100s of the smallest size stamps - like the popular GB Machin heads etc. Size #3 or #4 is excellent for Australian or other country mint blocks 4 etc.

Yes I CAN supply the DOUBLE sided Hagners - double sided are simply DOUBLE the prices below, but specify very CLEARLY if you want those when ordering.  Stock code for Double Sided has a 'D', so 200 x double sided, Size #3 is ordered as 20 x 'HSD-33' and #7 is 'HSD-77' - etc.  PLEASE be careful when completing the order form!

You need to order a minimum of 10 of each different size in any order, as they are factory sealed packed in tens. So important - you must order as “HS-1 x 1” if you want TEN sheets of #1 size, or “HS-1 x 10” if you want 100 sheets of #1 etc.

You MUST clearly specify as per below, how many of each size you need to make up your 200, 400 or 800 order.  I cannot read minds! 
 
 

Order exactly in format as follows in the sheet sizes you need. EACH size is in a sealed pack of 10.  Therefore 'HS-2 x 8' is EIGHTY sheets of 79 mm strips, or 'Hagner 2' size.  If you carelessly order 'HS-2 x 80' when you need 80 sheets, I will ship and charge you for 800 sheets. So carefully THINK before typing please!

Please DO type it carefully, and DO type exactly in this format below, or your order is very likely to be messed up, costing you expensive postage to return the wrong sizes - or receiving 10 times more than you really wanted!

So your order to me for 200 sheets on the SECURE SITE email order form:  https://www.glenstephens.com/order.html  - should look exactly like this format below, but in the exact choice of sizes of packs 10 each size you need -

HS-1 x 1, HS-2 x 4, HS-3 x 5, HS-4 x 8, HS-5 x 2

i.e. this above is an order for 20 sealed packs of 10 = 200 sheets etc.

 
 
HS 1 = 242 mm height pockets x 1 strip a page i.e. #1 Size

HS 2 = 118 mm height pockets x 2 strips a page i.e. #2 Size

HS 3 =  79 mm height pockets x 3 strips a page i.e. #3 Size

HS 4 =  58 mm height pockets x 4 strips a page i.e. #4 Size

HS 5 =  46 mm height pockets x 5 strips a page i.e. #5 Size

HS 6 =  37 mm height pockets x 6 strips a page i.e. #6 Size

HS 7 =  32 mm height pockets x 7 strips a page i.e. #7 Size

HS 8 =  28 mm height pockets x 8 strips a page i.e. #8 Size

DOUBLE sided are further 'D' - stock coded - HSD-33 or HSD-77 for #3 or #7 sized etc.
 

These above in photo are a few HS-7 size sheets - i.e. ‘7 strip’ size

 MY BULK BUY OFFERS BELOW!

Save over $550 on a bulk buy of 800 sheets!  A First Class domestic letter in Australia now costs $1.90! Indeed if you buy along with the binders/slipcases, they work out at not much over $A1 a sheet, as I discount those $100 further - see below. Buy up ..... I have 1000's here, and if $A Dollar keeps weak, and/or Europe supplier unit prices increase once again, the hence R.R.P. here price goes up, and so will these prices. And supply issues are often CHRONIC, as sea stock takes 3 months to arrive, so order up big NOW!

200 sheets - $A350 (Retail $439 - Stock 827WF)

400 sheets - $A650 (Retail $878 - Stock 827WG)

600 sheets - $A900 (Retail $1,317 - Stock 827WE)

800 sheets - $A1200 (Retail $1,756 - Stock 827WH)

(DOUBLE sided are priced double the single sided price, so 200 double sided is Stock Code 827WG at price above)

Each lot of 200 weighs about 5 kilos.  So I can legally mail 800 in 1 carton, so 800 works out the most cost effective by FAR.  As you can see, bulk buying saves you over 30% off current retail (which is increasing soon anyway) - buy along with binders/slipcases deal below, and save even MORE!

800 Hagners will fit into ONE large box, meaning only ONE postage cost for you. So buy more than you THINK you need, as you’ll save greatly on postage. And you WILL use them up! And guard against future price rises - $A landed prices have risen 75% in 4 years. Bulk buying saves you heaps. They are in sealed packs 10, for safe LONG storage until you need them.

A Domestic 'SIGNED FOR' Australia Post pre-paid label, is only a flat $5 extra each carton, on top of mail and packing cost, whether 200 or 400 or 600 or 800 is purchased, and/or binders.  And I CAN send 800 sheets as just one heavy carton, and still be just under the PO max 22KG weight limit.  (Factory cartons are 400 of each size.)

And of course I use light cancelled STAMPS on MY parcels!  So your shipment is often essentially 'Post Free', as the franking I use under plastic covering is worth MORE than you pay for shipping!  THAT is vitally important, as ordering elsewhere mostly gets you a worthless white label for your $40 shipping etc, not a superb used corner block of $10 Waratah stamps etc!

'Win, Win' for you – Parcel Postage is getting quite pricey these days, and if your seller uses a worthless white PO label YOU are getting ripped off.  I can mail these overseas - using VFU stamps – ask me.

 

 

In 50 years of stamp dealing I know one thing for sure -  you can NEVER have too many Hagner sheets.  NEVER!!!!  Yes, you WILL use 200, and you'll use them 3 times faster than you think.

Indeed, you will use 400 - trust me.  And often 800.  Get together with a few stamp friends and buy in bulk.  Ask around at the stamp club.  EVERYONE will buy 100 top quality GENUINE 'HAGNER' storage sheets in their exact choice of sizes, at not much more than a buck apiece ... I can guarantee it!

And YOU keep the nice stamps off the parcel if you bulk buy on behalf of your Club members!  Light cancelled stamps are ALWAYS used on mailings from me so real cost to you is near ZERO!   OTHER suppliers very often use worthless white PO ink jet labels as PO clerks are lazy, and senders do not care about what YOU get re franking, as they are too busy to care to select useful franking.

 

 

Warning - NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER buy second-hand Hagner style sheets.  You will pay nearly this price, and they may ruin your collection. FAST.  If stamps have been stored there before, that had rust/toning/foxing etc, that mould is silently and actively growing ON the black board already.  It WILL get worse.  I can guarantee you that.

You often times cannot see it with the naked eye, but the tiny mould/rust spores ARE there, and getting worse each month.  It will attack your stamps within months when you neatly place your stamps right on the spores.  Buy NEW sheets - and never have this problem.  Do you use re-cycled motor oil from the garage in your car engine, as it saves a few dollars?  But may ruin your engine!
  

 

 

 

Deluxe BLACK deep grained ‘Leather Look’ Binders
for your Hagner Sheets, along with the matching
‘Leather Look’ Slipcases, at around $A40 a SET!

 
 

Superb big black real 'Leather Look' jumbo thickness, with matching black heavy duty slipcase.   The photo above shows exactly what you will receive. (No stamps are included on the Hagners of course!)   

These have the discreet 5 gold stripes on spine, and are superb.  Check the deep leather look graining .. they REALLY look classy, and are MILES better looking than some shiny garish colour vinyl things on sale, for often twice this price.  

5 or 10 of these on your bookshelf REALLY look classy.  Red, green and blue never looked like 'leather' to me, as I cannot ever recall seeing a red, blue or green COW!  Have you?    

These have the LARGEST capacity you can buy.  Beware of thin spine binders, which often cost more, and of course store less sheets!  These wide spine 4 ring binders hold about 40-50 Hagner type sheets very comfortably in most cases, although if you store a lot of FDC or covers etc, on #1 or #2 size Hagner sheets, they hold a little less per album due to that thickness. 

So the 5 Binder/Slipcase deal will hold the 200 Hagner sheets VERY nicely.  And 400 Hagners will fit perfectly into 10 sets, and likewise 20 sets will house the 600 sheets VERY comfortably.

The very classy leather look black slipcases alone should cost this much!  Seven Seas Stamps sell their garish colour SLIPCASES ALONE for about $A30 EACH -  tinyurl.com/7Seas-Binder You MUST have slipcases for storage - in this country especially. 

Slipcases are ESSENTIAL - they keep most dust and junk and moisture and insects OUT of your stamps, which is what mostly causes rust/toning/foxing.  You MUST use slipcases - please read my detailed story about this very important matter here from my recent 'Stamp News' magazine article -  tinyurl.com/Glen08-19.

I’ve seen retail elsewhere of over $A70 a set for this kind of Binder/Slipcase quality!  These are as low as near $A40 a set - indeed are under that when bought as a discount lot along with Hagners - see offers below.
 

FIVE sets Deluxe binders AND 5 matching slipcases for $A275 (Stock 827WJ)

Or a huge factory carton of 10 superb sets for just: $A475  (Stock 827WK)

Or TWO huge cartons i.e. 20 superb sets for just: $A800 (Stock 827WL)

NOTE: - Although these are VERY bulky as you can see - they are rather LIGHT, so post cost is often VERY reasonable.  And of course I use light cancelled stamps on ALL my parcels!  If you order 5 sets at the SAME TIME as the Hagner sheets special offer above, the extra cost to ship these Binders/Slipcases is generally minimal extra as they can go in the same parcel.

 
 


 

 

COMBINE Hagner sheets AND Deluxe Binders/Slipcases to house them all in, and SAVE another $A100!

Instead of paying $A350 and $A275 - you pay only $A600 plus shipping, and save $A25 extra. (Stock 827WP)

And remember the shipping is nearly (indeed is often exactly the same) the same cost for the 200 Hagners, if you add the 5 x Slipcases/Binders to the same order, in the same carton.

Order 400 Hagners of your choice or sizes (normally $A650) and TEN x Deluxe Binders/Slipcase to house them in (normally $475) together for $1,075 and save a further $A50! (Stock 827WQ)  (Due to weight and volume, these are shipped as two parcels).

NOTE - The special Combo offers within this Specials box are for AUSTRALIA orders only – foreign post gets scary on these combos!  

 

All prices above are Postage and Registered tracking and Extra cover insurance and packing is extra, in all cases.  A Domestic Registered Post pre-paid SIGNED FOR tracking label, and the VERY time consuming careful and secure packing, and schlepping heavy bulky cartons to the PO etc, is a flat $10 extra for each carton, on top of mail cost, whether 200 or 400 or 600 or 800 Hagners are purchased, and/or binder Combos.  And will be added to all invoices.

Search all my 300+ web pages! Simply type in what you are looking for. "Penny Black", "Latvia", "Imprints", "Morocco", "Fungi" "Year Books", etc! Using quotes ( " ) is more accurate for multi word searches - i.e. "Australian FDC" gives FAR more specific matches than simply Australian FDC if used with no quotes. Search is NOT case sensitive. Tip - keep the search word singular - "Machin" yields  far more matches than "Machins" etc.
