Another Ebay Bogus Listing

I suppose you can send him pictures of 100 dollar bills?

LOL. Last time I think he had another excuse not to take Paypal. Hopefully, this will scare off legitimate bidders.

I just sent the seller a question. Are they real postage stamps or scanned & printed copies, let's see if I get an answer.

I did receive a reply from the seller, here is the confusing response;

Question I sent - "Are these real postage stamps ? Or just scanned / printed copies ?"

Answer from seller - "No real stamps, the leaves are preprinted I stick pouches and set dedand stimbres the other collections ditto I am making sheet stamps are hinged, cordially"

The relist bids are now past $2500.00

He has added this comment:
"stamps are real, it is the sheet that are preprinted I stuck pockets and put the stamps, and the announcement may be poorly explained."
So he may have meant in his reply to Stallzer: "No! Real stamps. The leaves (of the album) are preprinted."
In any case, that's great because I would hate to have to print the leaves myself:)

l***o is his shill. The last time his high bid was around $12,000, so I think we can expect the same with this listing. And his payment methods include Paypal

Multiple shills here again. 80%-100% bid activity with the seller or large number of bid retractions.

The reply to stallzer is more intentional obfuscation; it is calculated to permit a favorable interpretation for him, namely that the lot contains "no real stamps." Just as with the Nigerian scam emails, the idea is to make claims so outrageous that virtually everyone ignores them except the truly gullible, who will also lack the means or brains to pursue him after losing their money. He's trolling for the 0.1%.

Nigerian email scam?? You mean I am not getting that money that I paid the handling charge on??
Just kidding.

This guy is scum. If he ever gets any money from this, he will disappear. They will never find him.

I buy a lot from ebay and sold some. I have never had any issues. I even made a deal with one of the sellers (out of the country) for a larger lot of year sets at a discount price. No issues. Do not let a few scam artists chase you away from ebay. Just watch what you buy, do not buy anything you do not see, have some knowledge on what you are buying, and always use paypal. No paypal = no sale.

I just asked the seller this question, I doubt he will respond.
"You told me that this collection is real, authentic stamps, so can you tell me how it is possible that you have Scott 85a the famous 1 cent Z grill stamp? Bill Gross owns the stamp that you show in your collection, are you Bill Gross?"

ebay tells me (the seller) is out of the office until 4/12 (because) "Absent for medical reasons, I will touch upon my return, cordially" how convenient.

He's back with more classic US "stamps":
