For that reason, I think that, for such a SCARCE stamp, my discount of maximum 40% is not a mistake.


Well, I guess you'll find out. Keep us posted on all of the offers you get.

OK, now I understand. I didn't notice at first. The listing with the certificate is your OWN listing.

If that is the case, then you have taken your own thread off topic, and it has become a sales thread instead of a question thread. Promotion of your own sales items belongs in a different part of the forum, not here. It would have been more appropriate for you to simply post a picture of the stamp/certificate that you own, instead of linking to your own sales listing.

Please note that I would have ONLY the information about the price in Scott 2015; nothing else.

Even I didn't put any word about my auction. It was just an answer.
And I don't see any problem if that topic is removed.

Totally confusing post by the way.

If you have a cert for the stamp which can serve as a model for any other comparison, what's the point?

Please, Mods, please don't pull the thread. I want to know what kind of offers he gets.

Hungary, I think the point was he thought the stamp was valued higher in Scott and wanted the Scott cv from us so that he could decide what asking price to set for his certed stamp.

Which I provided, not realizing at the time that he was the owner of the certified stamp.

The injection of his sales listing only served to confuse me, as I could not tell which stamp he was talking about in subsequent posts. Re-reading the thread, I think I was not the only one.

No - your stamp is not that rare ,I purchased more expensive Swiss stamps and other buyers don't jump because it is the only one on the market .Buyers wait for major collection auctions to purchase rare items ,not a one stamp auction on ebay because the danger is the cert. is a fake or been played with . If someone ,me included is going to spend that kind of money were going to buy from a name firm .
Your math to the value is a little off in this market place, it would sell in the range I quoted , but with two damaged perfs ,you can drop my bid down $100.00 or $150.00 more ,get real about that stamp there are only four or five buyers who would seriously concider that stamp , now you find them because no dealers is buying for inventory right now .
Now let me give you some advice ......if you want to sell it ,first call around to the major auction houses and find one that is going to have a major Swiss collection auction , there is a major Swiss auction once every two or three years ,but find the one that is having a exclusive catalog made for Swiss stamps ,that means to stay away from General Worldwide Auctions that have Swiss included.That is where your going to find buyers and bidders for that type of stamp.

The certificate shown on Swiss ebay seems to lack any date of issuance.

If you are referring to Priatel's listing, the date on the certificate in near the bottom right below the signature (08.05.2015)
