Canada Jubilee Issues - Ebay Quite A Lot For Sale

I've noticed on ebay there is quite a lot of JUBILEE high values for sale at cheaper prices, as there been a fall in the value of these or are some them not genuine.

Check the completed listings on ebay for a 90 day history. That will include the items sold but more importantly what is not selling. It, the market, is not looking active at this time.

Item clearly states they are "replicas".

Always helpful to post a photo of the item/items in question.

Among other Canada stamps, I recently purchased a complete used set of Jubilees off ebay, needing only the $3, $4, and $5 values (Scott 63-65) to complete my collection; paying less than 22% of catalog (the $3 & $5 were VF+, making me feel really good about my purchase).

The replicas are easy to spot and are dirt cheap, so really don't apply to the original question - that being: have these stamps fallen in value?

I've been watching prices on ebay for much of the past year and it has been my observation that most, if not all Canada stamps (including provinces), are selling for well below catalog values.

I understand my experience is merely anecdotal but the trend is easy to verify by checking sold listings. My question is 'why?'. Catalog values haven't changed much in the past few years so I have no explanation for it. Whatever the reason, I'm not complaining - it has allowed me to fill gaps I once considered out of reach.

Any other Canada collectors feel the same way?
