My feedback now is 87.5% Positive,
Do I have any chances of selling valuable stamps (or other items)?

Do you have any suggestions for me as a beginner ?
Do people buy stamps that are not MINT ?

Thanks Have a nice day!!

People buy ANYTHING!!! mint or not, interests and tastes are different.
I suggest you try raising your feedback with few purchases, for me a 95% would be good

Hello

Buying on eBay is a matter of trust and whether you are a buyer or seller, your rating is very important. So, I have to agree with the previous comment that imporving your feedback score is critical to selling. I've just finished selling on eBay course and the teacher said that honesty, integrity is essential to being an active participant in this community.

Until your feedback score improves, many buyers would be hesitant to buy from you, and unfortunately, your location can raise concerns. But I note that on your about me page you have already explained the reasons for your low score. Good luck and have patience before you put some expensive items for sale on eBay.

Cheers

As obel_basha was saying your feedback score means alot! For me feedback needs to be at least a 97 or better. Also when listing stamps describe there condition as best you can if there singles or small lots.
Show the back of the stamp as well so bidder feel more confident so they can view for themselves if there is smudges, patches, hinge marks, etc.
Being very realistic on shipping costs, don't inflate it. Use good communications, tell them when it has shipped, give positive feedback, and you can also ask for positive feedback.
hope this helps.
