Still I think the gambling thing from the other posts above remains correct as also in this lot you don't know whether the stamps with high CV have perhaps all some creases or tears.
I assumed the worst when skimming the lot. I wouldn't consider the lot to be a gamble because buyers exist for even the worst material - at the right price, of course. It would be easier for a dealer to buy the lot and get rid of the worst junk quickly to recover the cost of the lot or flip it to a local show or storefront dealer.
