Current high bidder has a high feedback score, but IMO they are taking a huge gamble. From what I see, I don't like it. Not only is it from one of our favorite shovelware ebay sellers, but you've got a blurry picture of the front and a MINISCULE picture of the back, which is their typical approach... so why is it their camera capable of taking high(er) resolution pictures of fronts of stamps, but NEVER high resolution pictures of reverses... ever.

The margins are not so large enough as to preclude trimming, and I don't like the stray piece at the top or the awkward cut at bottom left. But still, the picture is so blurry that you really can't tell for sure.

Yes, the buyer MIGHT be getting an incredible deal at (currently) $64, but far more likely they're paying $64 for a damaged stamp worth at most 25 cents.

The two images below the screenshot are the actual images from the auction listing. No excuse for the disparity in image size.

I see nothing that would make me believe it is legitimate. Only lots of questions. I would pass.

They must have a whole stash of these.

Similar to one offered earlier this year:

Ended at $113.01. Waste of money IMO.
