Is This Cut Worth 35.000 As I Have Seen It Before On Another Stamp

Is this particular cut worth it? Is it worth a lot in all varieties? For, I have seen this.

Hello, I don't know the answer to your question. I have none like that so never researched.. but I wanted to say I have also seen rediculous prices on ebay for some common stamps that I own and always seems there is 20 - 100 people watching the item and no one bidding. Like there waiting to see the who the under educated person who buys it is.

Yes true. TY

Let's look at some facts:
There are common look-alikes to this stamp, but this particular example is indeed a 482A.
Scott catalog value for a used single is $65,000, asking price here is $35,000, with design cut into.
As noted in the link above, this example has 2 certificates: PF 48,307 from 1975; and PSE 01264767 from 2013.
It is listed in the R. A. Siegel census of 482A.
This stamp was sold in the 2017 Siegel Rarities of the World Sale, sale 1159, lot 244, for $11,500 + 18% = $13,570, which was its value in the marketplace on that day.

That's a lot of digits for a 3-margined piece.

Wow, that's awesome. Definitely a keeper.

Purchased for $13,500 ,two years ago . Asking $35,000 that is not a keeper . It is a ebay seller who is fishing for that guy who is putting together a stamp exhibit for a major stamp show. I call this a "Hunting for Gold" purchase .

He's looking for offers, the guy knows what he's doing. When you want to collect offers on ebay they FORCE you to put in a BIN price so sellers put one in no one will pay so they can collect offers for a few weeks.

Highly used sales technique on ebay and not a thing wrong with it.

The problem that the seller has is that I doubt anyone will pay more then about $15,000 for it. 25% seems about the top of the retail market given what it sold for in a sale that everyone who is anyone looks at.

Plus a lot of people don't like the seller.

Yeah, that guy is a shyster. Wouldn't buy that stamp from him if it was $5,000.

To answer Louis's question about the "cuts", I believe the reference may be to the rectangular perforations? These are Schermack Type III perforations. Then the answer is no, it's only valuable as the Type Ia variety. An ordinary Type I has almost no commercial value when so poorly centered.

There are many such stamps on ebay and submitted to the PF as #482A, Type Ia, because of Scott's mention of the Schermack perforations in their footnote, leading the novice at time to associate these private perforations as exclusive to the rare variety.

Even if it was a REAL Sc# 482A. BARGAINBILL ain't no bargain!

There seems to be a number that went on sale...
