Valuation / Price Guidance:
From stamp catalogs and listings:
A Fine Used example of QE II 2½d (SG 519) is quoted at around £7.99 in some catalogs.
Lesser-quality used copies are found offered for very low prices (e.g. as low as ~USD 0.12 in bulk listings)
Premium mint, never-hinged, or error/variety examples (if any) could command much more, depending on condition and market demand
So your realistic baseline valuation (if your specimen is decent used) might be £5 – £15 GBP. If mint and excellent, you might push higher (for example £20+).
Recommended eBay Listing Price:
If your stamp is used but in good condition, you might set a “Buy It Now” price of £12 GBP (or £10–15, depending on strength). Or for a nice unused mint, perhaps £25–£35 GBP or more, depending on demand and rarity.
Auction Option:
You could offer it as an auction with a starting bid of £5–£8 GBP (or lower, to attract bidders), with a reserve price (if you wish) of maybe £12–£15 GBP. Also include “Buy It Now” option if you want the chance to sell immediately.
Shipping & Handling:
Indicate shipping from UK (or your location)
Use tracked, insured postage (especially for valuable stamps)
Combine shipping if you have more stamps
Return Policy / Terms:
“Returns accepted within X days if not as described” is helpful to build buyer confidence
State clearly how you describe condition and that buyers should review photos carefully
