This isn't a block, it isn't a plate block, it isn't mint...never mind never hinged.... Shouldn't sellers have an inkling of what they are trying to sell? It can be yours for only $7.99 shipped!

I would love to buy this plate block of 11 if I just knew the plate number. Never seen a block before that looks like a split level!

I think you guys are too quick to condemn, you have to look at all the images to understand the listing.

Here is the second image which show the stamps on a plate...



And here they are shown as a 'plate block'

Sweet!! I always had one and never knew what it was. Obviously, the USED MNH variety is not found often.

Amazing!! That was a really nice "SHEET" of 18 individual stamps. I guess they were a sheet once upon a time.

I notified him of the errors. He responded by saying that his daughter made the listing and her English isn't "too good". I told him to rename it as a Lot of 11 used 1973 Christmas stamps. I didn't suggest that the price should be about a nickel but....he did sell that other batch of Christmas stamps for several dollars so what do I know? Maybe I better start digging through the hundreds I have left over somewhere from mission mixtures.

I'd bet that these stamps are actually unhinged. It's pretty unlikely that they ever have actually been in an album.....but they're surely not MINT.

Unhinged means they took the hinge off the stamp"
