6 Hitler stamps from the Third Reich. 1943. Used. Still in good condition.
I originally paid ten dollars for the set. Was I taken? Or was it a good deal??

Cancelled Hitler stamps are worth a few dollars. Uncancelled Hitler stamps are nearly worthless. The reason the cancelled stamps are worth more than the new ones is millions of Hitler stamps were taken from German post offices by Allied soldiers as souvenirs.
You'll have to check a stamp collecting site or go to a shop to find out how much, but that's what I know.

I'm not an appraiser but they sound valuable depending on the condition. You'll want to take them by a proffesional appraiser. Sometimes they'll appraise an item for free if they can have dibs on first offer to buy.
Watch Public Television in your area and find out if the Antique Roadshow will be in your area, maybe they'll feature you?

The easiest way to do is to find a stamp shop near by, or call your local post office. I had some rare ones come across my path and the post office was very helpful in referring me. I just looked real quick and here is a link for you to check out. www.sammler.com/stamps/hitler_stamps.htm

I don't think it's a bad deal. I think it's a unique enough item. If you are interested and a collecter of WWII items, or Nazi items, or German history, it's a nice addition.
Incidentally, it could be worth $10 simply because you paid for it!
Don't e-bay it without checking the rules first...international law sometimes has restrictions on such things.

Could be good... an item is only worth what someone is willing to pay... If you want to check it out, try ebay or an antique site.

I think if you are collecting stamps, it's worth because it's too famous stamp. Hitler - I really hate ....

Prove they are real and it would be a bargain...look at a stamp dealer/collectors site.

if theyre in good condition, i suggest getting them appraised to see their real value. chances are that you got them for really cheap, as far as anyone might guess, they might be worth hundreds!!! go and appraise them so you can get the right value price.
