Other than the fact these are housed in a cheap, Minuteman album, and aside from all the missing photographs, there are probably some decent stamps in the collection. It sure would be nice to have all the photos present!

The zepps are a very funky. Don't look right. Those plate numbers seem in the wrong font. |

Also, there appears to be an inverted Jenny. Since he says it is missing from the collection, the one in the photo is a fake then?
Is it the only fake?
A collection like this should show all the main pages in Hi-Res. |

C13 - C15 are definitely fake. Funny, lists the stamps MISSING (2 or 4, etc.), but doesn't show any of the early ones actually there (starts showing at 1901). |

Plus he has no completed items, and anyone who knows the cat numbers also know the cat prices and would break up a collection like this into smaller parts just based on that. Definitely has an aroma.... |

Largest margins I've ever seen on a set of Zeps facsimilies....
Why would someone shell out 10K on only seeing a portion of the collection ? |

Non Experienced ebay sellers / Non-collectors not knowing what to take pics of when all ebay gives you is 12 pics (for those that can't self host), has given me some great deals over the last few years. Not saying anything about this specific listing, just in general |

Besides the obvious that has been previously mentioned I noticed that a lot of the perfs on the stamps pictured look like the square ones like on the plethora of reproductions up for sale nowadays on ebay. Just smells to me.fishy I would advise passing this up. |
