Looks like the seller is trying to sell one of 7 different "errors" for nearly $90,000 each.

None of the seven look like anything other than common junk stamps.

Take a look.

This is a great example of why you have to be in the right frame of mind when you click that ebay search button.

I suggest it's a joke friends - and if it's not - consider it one anyway.

PS Have a look at the details of his ebay rating - all ++ from sellers! I'm thinking now one of] those sellers sold him that stuff.

103 completed listings, with no sales at all. The only winner is ebay for the listing fees collected.

He has only one feedback as a seller, and 220 feedbacks as a buyer.

Here's a real peach of a listing:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-RARE-Tho...AOSwE95aU6kf

$175 for three stamps torn off an old envelope. Apparently the seller was 'told' these are stamps collectors look for. Yes, if they're in preschool.

It never stops, does it?

No, it won't ever stop. There'll always be charlatans trying to rip off people.

Education will always be the best defence.

What a surprise- sellers of philatelic pond scum never accept returns. Of course it doesn't matter, ebay forces the seller to accept returns anyway.
