I try to not comment on folks who ask unrealistic prices for their material. Its their material and I guess they can ask whatever they want for it. But this fellow is over the top.

Wow! It's sellers like this that give ebay and other sellers a bad name. I kind of wish ebay still had different listing fees based on starting prices. It would be one way to keep these folks in check.

Yes, but his stamps are "special". For example:
Scott#219-Candle flame variety,DBL transfer(under nose),printing flows, blind perforation.

If you want that much money, at least proofread.

I saw those too. Wondered what was so special, or what seller thought was so special, abt them. Makes Mystic look cheap in comparison.

Three important points for this fellow , he is buying his material on ebay most likely . He is also someone you can offer your extra material at 10% of his selling price, which means you can make a ton of money. Third he will be around a few weeks and then disappear.
I ran into people like this all the time working in the security business trading in the Futures Market ,they got $1,000 or $2500 for life savings and want to retire wealth from their job cleaning tables at a fast food restaurant in three years and also want to pay for college for their 3 grandchildren . Belive me they are out there in every business .

Anthraquinone: Everyone in the U.S. gets 50 free listings per month and afterwards it's 30 cents per listing or even less if they have a store. So it doesn't cost him anything except time and that of others.
