There are a lot of lunatics in the world. Some even act on the internet and ask ridiculous prices for common stamps. A high asking price on
ebay does not guarantee rarity or value,
Rareness is determined by numbers printed and numbers preserved.
Price is determined by supply and demand. And then there are dealers and catalogue editors that "price" stamps. You will find prices realised tend to be much lower than catalogue prices. Many times, the catalogue price can be reasonable for a stamp that is difficult to find in good condition and you want some guarantee you are buying one such.
How sad! Read his remarks to this one.
