I looked at the listing you posted and there is absolutely nothing criminal about it. He posted a stamp, with a beautiful image, and a price. Also accepts offers. Please explain to me the crime. In my eyes, the only crime here is your libelous statements. Be careful, you make a post like this about the wrong seller and you'll be signing for your mail.
jimjam's paypal thread of a while back was locked after my rant at a certain member, so I will not risk this topic going the same way.
Suffice to say.....here we go again !

Firstly, I obviously meant crime in a moral sense, not a legal sense. If you think there is nothing wrong with taking advantage of other peoples lack of knowledge and naivety so be it. But I (and 99% of all people) think otherwise. Do you think that ANYONE would pay these prices if they knew that 1.) they could get the same thing elsewhere for 1/100th the price, and 2.) if they were to bring the EXACT same stamp in the same condition, said dealer would pay 1/100th of what he is asking for the one he is trying to sell. By having fancy paper etc, he is attempting to convey the impression that the stamp is something it isn't. Namely something of significant value.
We all know what you meant joe, and your posts are fine.
There are those who just love to disagree, for the sake of it.
