Nahues Online Auktionen

Nahues runs online auctions across the whole collectors' spectrum rather than a single specialism, with twenty-five years of trading behind it. The category tree is the useful part: German, European, overseas and thematic stamps kept separate, alongside covers and postal history, postcards, coins, banknotes and securities, militaria and general antiques.

What you can buy

• Stamps — Germany, Europe, overseas, thematic and collections.

• Accessories for collectors.

How the bidding works

Lots are bid on online and posted out, with free shipping over €50 and payment by transfer or PayPal. The site runs in German and English.

What to check before you bid

This is the accessible end of the collectors' market — lots are individually modest and the sale runs like a webshop with bidding rather than like a specialist saleroom. That also means condition grading is briefer than a specialist catalogue would give, so ask before bidding on anything where condition carries the value.
