Our Best Investment Proposal Ever

How To All But Guarantee A Trading Profit of 11% Over The Next Year - Extended to 31st December 2008

Dear Reader,

Sometimes - just sometimes - when an opportunity seems too good to be true it IS true.

Imagine if you could make a guaranteed trading profit on the stock market in 2009. Based on the current economic climate, that looks unlikely.

Today, I offer an opportunity for you to all but guarantee a trading profit in 2009…

In the market for rare stamps and historical signatures. With no long-term commitment.

What I aim to do is to make you a return of 11% over the next 12 months, and possibly in a shorter timeframe.

Sound too good to be true?

Let me explain how this works for both you and me…

Active Management Trading Portfolio

This unique investment product is an active management portfolio, but with a twist...

I have three simple steps to make you money:

  1. I have handpicked the investment items available for this portfolio. They are all items where I think our retail price is below the current potential market price (i.e. undervalued).
  2. I will give you the opportunity to increase your return by reducing "our trading spread." What this means is that you can purchase an investment portfolio today at a 10% discount to the current market value.
  3. I will then seek to sell your portfolio at 10% above our current retail price.

I fully expect to sell all items within your portfolio within a maximum period of 12 months.

Obviously, we need to be motivated to do this so you are not the only winner here…

I will take a 50% commission on the profit made from selling your portfolio on.

In the event that I am successful, you will make a return within the next 12 months of 11%, after deducting our commission.

I emphasise that the quality of the items selected for this product are some of the best we have ever seen.

And, only items where I consider the current price is below the potential market value.

As the offer includes only our best stock, it could be another 12 months before I have the ability to offer something like this again.

How This Can Work For You

Let me illustrate your potential returns with an example…

Should you take out an Active Management Trading Portfolio for £100,000 in December, we would take payment from you of £90,000.

Over the next 12 months we will actively market these items to our clients, both existing and new, to attempt to realise the stated return on your investment.

Once sold, your portfolio will make a profit of £20,000. As stated earlier, Stanley Gibbons would take a 50% commission, leaving you with a profit of £10,000.

Consequently, your return would be £10,000 ÷ £90,000 = 11%.

You will receive quarterly statements on your Active Management Trading Portfolio detailing items sold and the prices realised.

We will make quarterly payments to you on 31 March 2009, 30 June 2009, 30 September 2009 and 31 December 2009 based on items sold during each period.

We expect to sell all the items in your portfolio within 12 months. In the unlikely event that your items do not sell, we will offer you the following options on 31 December 2009:

  1. Return unsold items to Stanley Gibbons at the price paid (i.e. no profit)
  2. Roll over Active Management Trading Portfolio for a further year.

We already run a number of Active Management Portfolios on behalf of clients. Our experience suggests that the average time to sell-on a £100,000 portfolio is 6 to 12 months.

It's All About Market Timing

As you know, with any investment, market timing is key…

Historically, in times of recession, collectables have out performed other asset classes.

You see, investors need to become more creative in managing their wealth during recessions.

Investors seek out "tangible assets" which have a long history of safety and security. Rare stamps and historical signatures fall perfectly into this category.

We are already witnessing a heightened demand for our investment products and we expect this to continue throughout 2009.

Remember, in the period from 1975 to 1980, the prices of rare stamps increased by approximately 600%.

Money supply figures this week by the Bank of England showed that money held in Banks and Building Societies had fallen by £5.2 billion in the last month, compared to an average inflow of £5.6 billion in the previous 12 months.

It seems investors are no longer confident in the security of their cash in banks.

Add to that the fact that interest rates are pitiful and returns are wealth destructive after adjusting for inflation.

It is obvious why investors need to look elsewhere to protect their capital and generate acceptable returns.

In light of the fact that we offer just that opportunity, we, and the market in general, are very well placed to benefit from the current economic conditions.
