Some lucky buyer can win a Z Grill valued in seven figures for a song. Notice the seller does not claim it is an 85A just that it 'costs too much' to get it certified.

Adding another seller to my junk heap..

Update I should have scrolled down before linking. Read what he says toward the bottom:

'We are NOT selling the stamp!!!! we are selling information, to see the stamp. If your a High end stamp buyer or know one, this is how you get in the sale later. Find a buyer for us and get a big commission. You pay nothing! I return your bid price! Nothing to lose, everything to gain! '

So he is shopping for someone to tell him what he wants to hear?
In a way I can understand this. Myself, I usually assume that what you have is the more common variety of any stamp I question. Still an interesting listing..

Uh, I believe that the PF maximum cert charge is $1,000; for an 85A there would probably not be a better cert to get than a PF cert. All this talk of high cert expense ($15,000, etc.) keeping the owner from getting it certified is BS. What is probably keeping the owner from getting a cert is the fear of finding out exactly what it is.

Crazy. He's selling a service, not a stamp.
People are creative.
