From now on, I'm not gonna search on 'stamps' (etc), I'm gonna search on grandma & grandpa & inherited & attic & ...

I'm trying to figure out what kind of album he really has.

I figured that one out right away. The Harris album he's got is Mr Harris' personal album, hence the U$D 3k.

I check Craigslist often for local stamp sales. 99% have no clue what they have or are selling.

here's a good one that's been running for months

I sure hope that the philatelic ads on Craigslist are the exception, and that you can trust the sex ads.

Overvalue. Yes without a doubt. I wouldn't take anything for it. Now Monetarily. I never think of it Monetarily, because I have no intentions of ever selling it.

Okay, a couple of these are really funny, ei the collector's dream which is a nightmare. That's a type of dream I guess. My favorite is the autographed Frank Sinatra stamp. How did they get him back from the dead to sign? Can they get George Washington back for me to sign? I have a bunch of stamps with him on them!

Yes, that collectors nightmare is funny. I also like the three Christmas stamps for $20, then the seller clarifies that it's EACH!
