"Britain's best investment guarantee just got better"

Dear Reader,

Imagine investing in a market that expects to deliver you a return of over 9% per annum for the next 5 years.

Imagine if you could do this whilst protecting your capital. Your worse case scenario - your capital protected for 5 years. With banks now in many cases paying 0% interest, quite simply, you have nothing to lose.

Today, I am delighted to announce the launch of a new Stanley Gibbons investment product enabling you to do just that.

We have combined the best attributes of our guaranteed minimum return investment contracts with our active management investment portfolios to create the perfect investment product for you.

Not only that, our new product provides the lowest trading spread we have ever offered. The lower trading spread gives you the opportunity for higher returns.

What you will enjoy:

• The capital protection of a guaranteed minimum return investment contract
• The flexibility to sell when you want with no long term commitment normally enjoyed only in our active management investment portfolios
• The lowest trading spread in any of our investment products

It's the best of both worlds.

Capital Protected Growth Plan

"The BEST way to beat the recession by investing in a historical tangible asset that performs BEST during recessions."

Investors in our guaranteed minimum return investment contracts have already protected their capital in these difficult times. Our new product launch today offers protection with potentially much higher returns.

Let me clarify the key attributes which create this winning investment:

• Your capital is secured for the next 5 years (your worse case scenario is that you lose nothing).
• You stand to benefit from the 10% per annum growth in the rare stamp market (being the average annual compound growth experienced in the past 50 years).
• You get to invest in a recession busting investment. Rare stamps historically continued to appreciate in value during previous recessions.
• The lowest trading spread ever offered in a Stanley Gibbons investment product.
• You invest the capital then relax. We do all the work - we share in your success. A simple win/win situation.
• Early exit option after a minimum period of 1 year meaning that your capital does not need to be tied up for the full 5 year term should you want your money back earlier.
• The unique benefit lies in the fact that we offer this product with a reduced trading spread.

If you invest between £10,000 and £25,000, we will give you a 5% up-front discount on the current market value. If you invest above £25,000, we will give you a 10% discount.

This means that your investment starts with an immediate potential capital gain of 11.1%.

Your investment is easy. Once you commit, and are happy with the portfolio selected for you, we offer free storage and insurance during the term of your contract. We will also provide you with annual valuations so that you can see how your portfolio is performing.

How This Can Work For You

If rare stamp prices continue to appreciate by 10% per annum over the next 5 years you stand to make a return after 5 years of 47% (9.3% per annum).

It is easier to illustrate your potential returns with some examples.

Should you take out a Capital Protected Growth Plan Portfolio for £100,000, you would take ownership of a portfolio of rare stamps with a market value of £111,111.

The table below shows your potential returns under a range of different scenarios and compares those returns to the returns you would currently get in our guaranteed minimum return investment contracts.

* Assumes option to re-sell to Stanley Gibbons at higher of minimum guaranteed return or 75% of catalogue value taken by investor
**  Portfolio value less 10% discount
*** Based on a basic 10% non compound return
****  30% of profit

The beauty of our guaranteed minimum return investment contracts is that they guarantee a minimum annual return. In the case of a 5 year contract, that return is 4% per annum.

Our Capital Protected Growth Plan does not offer a guaranteed minimum return but still protects your capital. However, the real benefit in the Capital Protected Growth Plan is that you will make a higher return from the growth in the rare stamp market. The reason being, due to the up-front discount and a lower commission charge on exit, you share in a higher percentage of the total growth experience in the market.

Limited Supply

"Nothing this good can last forever."

We have a limited supply available for the first round of subscriptions to this new product which closes on 31st July 2009.

Past experience has shown that we will probably achieve full subscription early. I don't mean this to sound like some sort of "hard sell" but it is important you are aware that this is a time sensitive opportunity.

As I write, the FTSE100 is down 2% today. The volatility and lack of security in traditional investment mechanisms at this time is frightening. I suggest you diversify your wealth whilst you still can.

PS. Don't forget the potential TAX BENEFITS from an investment in rare stamps as a tangible asset. Your returns represent a "Capital Gain" not "Income."
