Royal Mail Stamps - Anyone Know Anything About Them??

Hiya Fellas, just been having a root around in my loft and have found my stampcollection from when I was young (Dull Child). Anyway, it's a collection of ROyal Mail First Edition stamps that comes on a collector card that gives info on the stamps and the special edition (Royal wedding etc...). ANyway, some of these date back to the early 80's. I was wondering if they might be worth something or if I should hand onto them?.

Just wondering if anyone here would have a clue (as I don't).

Cheers,

Rich

Most are not worth anything. Plenty go on ebay for very little money.

Don't you need to talk to one of those people, philanderers I think they are.

Was hoping they'd be worth a small fortune, damn my childhood, I know I should have collected gold and diamonds, another hobby wasted. I blame the Thundercats.

Thanks Guys,
