Not sure what your question is, but you're not missing anything. It seems like a bargain at the moment for that lot, but still 2 days to go & 7 bidders already. My guess is the price will go up a bit in the next 2 days...

A fairly centered Adriatic alone will set you back $30, agree lot is well worth €100

Also agree. A 118 is a misidentified 119, at $190 CV. The 120 CVs at $600. Granted both are not VF, but still the range is good. The color in the 120 is good for that issue. It's not a spectacular set, but the current price seems more than reasonable. I usually get between $150 - $200 for a 120 in that condition on it's own, when I have sold them in the past.

100 Euro is about $115. The lot is not worth more then about $150-$160 in this condition, at least to me if I were actually interested.

I am a stickler for condition, so think even at 110 euro it has gone past it's fair value. I would take 1.5 times the money and patiently seek out each stamp individually. Don't get caught up bidding against people that can't see condition and identification issues. Other opinions obviously will vary.

So this lot went for 220 Euros. Two guys got themselves into a last minute bidding war...

Pricey for this lot, but not beyond the norm. These stamps are desirable. Especially the 24c. They are tough to find in good condition - and very expensive when you have clean, well-centered copies.

I would say a bit of irrational exuberance, but that is usually the case with this series...
