Listing is billed as 'GREATEST-BRITISH-HISTORIC-STAMP-COLLECTION-EVER'
I'm a bit dubious though as he has 5 of these' Which one should I go for if I want the greatest ever?

The sellers other items are priceless too. Well not priceless exactly
I might go for the 'Protection Against * DEATH & BAD LUCK* spell'

A lot being sold by someone who says he is "not an expert" and whose grammar / spelling is poor. Why not throw your money into the ocean?

A typical [sadly] ebay joke seller.
One quick look at the list of items will tell you the real worth.

Even one of the scans is a repeat !

Did you see his website? "Hollywoodprizes" Now there's a scam if I ever saw one. Enter all your personal details, pay a registration fee (with your credit card of course) and win prizes!

...but I agree, the cover would have looked nice...

The complete short set of Edward VII VIII (all the way up to the 2d!) would be nice to have. And the KGV issues from 1936 to 1952 must be extremely rare. I've never seen them.



[edit: I misread it...you get the complete Edward VIII...only three Edward VIIs...]

I loved the way the price was calculated to the penny: 100,221.75 pounds!

It must have taken the seller ages to come up with such an accurate pricing

"Here is a taste.."

What a joke! I love how no pics were shown of anything earlier than KEVIII. Too bad we can't see what the offers were, I bet they were hilariously low!

Have a Good One,
