Have you seen the "offer of four beautiful Switzerland samps" for "just $ 2,500"? I won't pay even a nickel for them! Actually, e-bay is becoming crazy. |

I think think old saying "Less is more" applies here. Sometimes it's best to say little, especially if you can't spell or use grammar properly. But looking at the pictures of the German stamps, it's nice to see he's willing to Greece the offer a bit.
edit- I just had a look at some of his other offers. You've got to wonder 'is this a joke?' Sadly I don't think it is. |

This guy has no time to loose. He doesn't even look for catalogue values. Well at the end he does loose his time because he post an auction that no one will bid on. |

It's a good thing I've finished my morning coffee! I love this line from his November auction. Quote: swiss have alot of money! I cant sell my swiss stamps too cheap...... I can't fathom the logic here. Maybe he's vying for his own reality TV show. That's the only place I can think of where he'd fit in.  |

I emailed the guy. I was nice and suggested checking out the local library for the stamp catalogs. I also told hime a pair of his stamps were Greek. Let's see if he's rational. |

All I have to say is WOW! Now I need to grab up my stock cards and hit the frame shop. I'm sitting on a gold mine. I knew that when I noticed "inflation" stamp on my glassines I should have inflated the prices about a gazillion percent! If this guy actually sells these at this price I will eat my stamp collection....... Maybe with a little salt and vinegar.

Have a look at the feedback left for others. It looks like he purchased some of the items for his lots from others.... I hope the G-string wasn't for him...LoL... It's people like this that mess up auction sites for collectors. People see stupid prices then think oh hey I got some of those my grandpa left me I want my bazillion dollars. |

We can learn two valuable lessons from this; 1. ebay is not the most prestigious of auction sites. 2. never ever let your kids watch Transformer Cartoons |
