Ebay To Launch Invester-Oriented Stamp Sales Site

The problem is not ebay so much as the use some folks are trying to make of it to further their gain$ at the expense of the uninformed. To quote, sort of, Mr. T back in the 70's, "tough luck, fool".

We all know the majority of the folks in the collecting community are not like these outliers. Hopefully, within legal limits, we can all work towards educating the uneducated.

You guys break my heart ----

I am looking forward to this new section .....I got a lot of crap {sorry ...should of said "high grade material " to sell} . I have NO intention to sell to experience or knowledgeable collectors . I want to sell to those ebay sellers [42,000 people make a living off ebay] and those sellers who think they know the stamp market better than me .

I got boxes of old dusty album pages , old yellow glassines and stamps nobody looked at for 40 years trust me if you know the right words you can make a killing .

It will be like 1998 -2001 on ebay all over again . For 10 years I sold worldwide mixture lots for $8.00 to $12.00 thru LINN'S STAMP NEWS ,this was a fine business . Then ebay came along and those boxes were getting $30.00 to $58.00 box on ebay .

Any time you got a new market with new buyers , believe me you can unload all your excess stuff and get good prices .

"what is the real concern to the hobby?"
The problem is the people involved. NS doesn't know their butt from a perf hole.
