SHILL BIDDING

Shill bidding is the act of bidding on your own auction against other bidders in order to raise the price at which your item will eventually sell. It is a violation of both eBay rules and federal law.

We all know that price of Gandhi stamps and philatelic material is increased by Shill Bidding all the time.

It would impossible to even sell mint Gandhi stamps and in order to show it's valued it's need shill bidding.!!

All 1948 Gandhi stamps, 1948 Gandhi stamps first day cover, 1948 Used cover are always shill bidded.!! Panama Gandhi stamp is also shill bidded.!!

Also Shill bidding happens when there is forgery or bogus (never exist) philatelic material in order to glorified Gandhi stamps philatelic material so others will think it's one of a kind, rare, unique etc.!!!

Also some time dealers ( kind of collectors) want to increase value of their stamps they also increase price which is not shill bidding but still they will benefit, but sometime they don't pay after winning it.!!!

Read following blog post and understand what's happening in Gandhi stamps and if you are not Gandhi stamp collector there are chances of this happening in your thematic collection also.!!

Philatelic Fakes and Forgeries!!

How 1948 Gandhi stamps are sold ?

Now let's see SHILL bidding caught on delcampe.!!

Following is example of SHILL Bidding on Gandhi stamps.!!

Seller : Kad_ss
Buyer : Dkkphila

Look at the feedback "buy only if you want to honor the deal"!! This feedback was given because other bidder will think both are different.!!!!

You might be wondering how you know this.!! I bought some of my worst quality philatelic material from "dkkphila" at very high price (fixed) from him and did more research about this seller and I found lot of interesting things about him and learn lot of things illegal things going on eBay.!!!

Don't think "dkkphila" has only one ("kad_ss" more account.!! He has multiple account.!!

I was new in collection and don't know value and I paid high price.!!

So I started writing about my experience including pricing, illegal activities etc in Gandhi stamps.

If you see all the price of Gandhi stamps are artifically inflated with multiple bidders and they are waiting for someone unknown to bid it after that.!!!

Once they know someone notice about this they stop using that account and create new one.!!!

Read following blog post related to shill bidding.!!

STAMPS COLLECTION CHEATING. ?

Recently  I wrote blog post about "Stamp collecting facts" in which I mentioned about Malta Gandhi FDC was sold in auction for $1.!! But for $1 you will also get two more 1969 first day cover.!! 

So why you see high price of same item on declampe and eBay.!!?

Following is screenshot from delcampe were seller "phil4u" is selling same cover for $56.!!!

What a great way to rip off.!!! This kind of seller just waiting for someone new collector to buy it by mistake and regret their life.!!

All this high pricing is nothing but glorification of stamps to show the world that indeed stamp collection is great.!!! and they will sell same or similar stamps or philatelic material at little lower price!!

There are more than 10 Malta FDC are available for sale on delcampe.!!!

Following screenshot will show you detail about Malta stamps and FDC including pricing and seller of this  Malta Stamps First Day Cover  who just want to your money by selling some cheap Malta stamps at expensive price.!! .

Do you think some of them are same seller.?

Read following blog and understand how you will get CHEATED.!!

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/12/cameroun-gandhi-stamps-fdc-how-some.html

In above blog post you need to see who are the bidders trying to get this. All of them don't want this FDC but trying to increase price.!!!

One of the reason for this high price is that seller don't have to pay to list on delcampe.!! It's like parking lot.!!( Don't have to pay to park when you enter the garage, you only pay when you come out.!!).

So seller list it expensive and wait for buyer to buy (get out).!!!

If some other seller try to sell it cheap increase the price of it by overbidding it and not paying it.!!! They use all ILLEGAL things to make money.!!!

Following is one of the example of PHILATELIC CHEATING.!!

In this auction were stamp collection value was artifically increased and there were following bidders who bidded on it and  I alway try to stay away from them after my experience.!!

Stamps collection in not hobby but it's a big racket or scandal or scam and you need to decode it.!! I already did and I am writing to give some hints to collector community so  they get aware of things going in stamp collection.!!

As you can see from following screenshot that winner of this auction is "Khel10ka". 

He opened new delcampe id just to increase the bid on this item and eventually outbid me and won the auction. But think what he did not paid for this.!!!

Following is the feedback from seller about buyer "Khel10ka"

French to English translation of his feedback 

"no one, attention this person is without interest, refuses the questions, to avoid----------"

Now let's see how dealers/resellers play tricks with you.

Now if you see following screenshot you will get some idea what happen.

Khel10ka started bidding from 153.40 to 190.20 Euros and he won and I lost.!! But "Khel10ka" did not paid.!!! and in this way he increased the price of this FDC and makes it difficult for new Gandhi collectors.

Now if you see "Anusur" started bidding from 125.20 Euros till 153.00.  To me it looks like "Anusur" and "Khel10ka" are same bidders. Also "kad_ss" was trying to sell me Cameroon FDC for 190 Euros.!! 

So now you need you think what happen in this.?

What a great way to cheat in STAMPS COLLECTION. ?

Cheating in stamp collection is nothing new, but when demand is high (by false glorification), cheaters are taking benefits.!!

Now if you see above screen shot you will see all dealers/resellers  trying to bidding on this FDC because some of them are or might be also selling this Cameroun FDC.!!

Here there are actually 3-4 bidders but they are using multiple id in order to increase price.!!! This is common practice in Gandhi Philately by certain dealers and resellers.!! in order to increase stamp collection value.!!

Now you need to decide how to buy , from whom to buy etc when you start collecting Gandhi Philatelic material other wise you will be paying very high price like me.!! So BEWARE !! when you collect stamps.

Eventually seller sold me this FDC for 120 Euros.!!! Yes I bought it at very high price because of this kind of greedy dealers.!!

But currently it will sell under $25.!!! because no one wants this.!! It's a Glorified stamps collection and stamp collection value is artificially inflated by ILLEGAL ways which can be trouble in future.!!

Read following blog post about Cameroun FDC.

Bubble in Cameroun FDC.!!

In today's world there is nothing like stamp collection value or stamp collecting value.!!!

As I mentioned in my previous blog posts about this FDC is not rare and price is dropping and lot of shill bidding to sell this FDC. So avoid it by thinking as a piece of paper.

I can keep my mouth shut about this and I can join with them to increase my value, but I choose other option to publish this and make everyone aware of this so no other Gandhi collectors is cheated.!!!

I hope this kind of blog post about my experience will help you to understand how to protect yourself in Gandhi stamps collection value or any other thematic stamp collection value whether it's Gandhi stamps or First Aerial Mail or King George stamps or King Edward stamps.!!

Same theory or principle is applied by this dealers/collectors.!!

STAMP COLLECTION - STAMP COLLECTION VALUE

Hello Gandhi Collectors,

When you are collecting stamps you need to be very careful other wise your stamp collection will be nightmare.!!! But your stamp value will be give you more nightmare.

I am sharing my own experience (of course of nightmare) so you don't get one in your stamp collection.

You can apply this in any thematic stamp collection when you buy it on eBay or any other auction site online or offline in auction house for your stamp collecting need.

Stamp collection is declining and stamp value is not even maintaining catalog stamp value. But it's dealers and seller try to increase price so they can get more value when they sell it.!!!

This is one of the famous auction where dealers used their dirty tricks to outbid new collectors and than trying to sell their.!!

In this auction were stamp collection value was artifically increased and there were following bidders who bidded on it and  I alway try to stay away from them after my experience.!!

Stamp Collecting facts

Recently I saw 1969 Gandhi FDC from Malta and looks like now Gandhi stamp collection is also declining.!!!

Look at the following screenshot and you decide what's going on and after that move your plan for stamp collecting.!!!

If you don't keep current trends and blindly start beleiving all this investment advisior or some greedy collector who will suck your money.!!!

Also don't look at all that website that try to glorify stamp collection by exhibiting Forged or Bogus philatelic material which are mentioned as very RARE or unique stamp or used cover or special cancellation.!!!

Don't look at all award winning stamp exhibition or online exhibit and think that they really collectible item, because everyone is involved including stamp collectors, philatelic judges etc. Because everyone wants to keep the relationship and no one has guts to speak out TRUTH even though some of them collect Gandhi stamps but don't follow his principle.!! "TRUTH IS GOD".!!

All this collectors are making living by false or incorrect information on newsletter, stamp boards, stamps forum, blogs, websites, stamps yearbook, philatelic handbook etc.

Their main goal is to involved also you in all kinds of cheating so they can prosper.!!!

Of course there are some genuine collectors but it's very hard to find.!!! But it will be very hard to trust them even what you experienced with other collectors.!!

Also all description on eBay or feedback is nothing but lie.!! It's all about Shill Bidding by using other eBay id or friends helping each other.!!!

This 3 FDC were sold for $1.68.!!! including Mahatma Gandhi stamp and cachet of Gandhi's image and Flag of India.!!

Even there were 2 bidders bidding on it but no one wants to pay higher to buy it.!!!

So even after 44+ years stamp collection value is not appreciating because no one wants to collect stamps.!!!!

Want to learn more about stamp collecting then read my some of the following blog and you will be expert in collecting.!! ( find out how to cheat in stamp collection.).

Philatelic Game.!!

Stamp Collection Decline.!!

Rare Stamps - Million Rupees stamp booklet or folder.!!

Indian Philately EXPOSED!!

Is Gandhi stamps all about Forgery ? Biggest SCAM in stamp collection ?

A stamp collecting hobby in decline.!!

Greatest Stamp Collection SCANDAL ?

You need to special careful when collecting following philatelic material

1) Gandhi stamps and philatelic material.
2) King George stamps
3) King Edward stamps
4) First Aerial Mail or First Aerial Post or First Air Mail cover
5) China stamps
6) Queen Victoria stamps.

In short my advice for investment or collection will be look some where else instead of stamps, because it's very easy to make forgery stamps using latest and greatest printing technology available to normal collector.!!

Also to create postmark or cancellation is also very easy and it will very hard to find out what was available in 1948 or 1930 or 1902 or 18XX.

It's a piece of paper.!!

I hope all the above blog post helps you in finding out stamp collecting facts or stamp collection facts.!!

China stamp collection value : Does used postcards or cover make sense to collect ?

Recently I was searching for Gandhi stamps (not for collection) but to see what kind of FORGERY is available so I can keep up with my knowledge and gain some more experience in forgery Gandhi stamps and also how dealers make their living by selling stamp material.

It's simple to make living on  stamps by doing following

1) Increase price by SHILL Bidding
2) Start selling at high price and give option of make a offer.
3) Make forged material by making different rubber stamps of different cities and make it unique item, so it can get more money !!
4) Now display this in your stamp collection exhibit and also encourage friends to display it even though it's forged.!!
5) Glorified some special thematic stamps by all of the above methods and start selling and hope for someone to buy!!

Following is a unique philatelic material  for sale by eBay seller id  "princessez" in China stamp collection if it is genuine.!!  A 1902 Turkey Zongouldak redirected mail to China Vietnam.!!

But look at the address and do you think it will ever reach to final destination.!!!

Just get any old postcard and start stamping your forged rubber stamps.!!! and start dreaming for someone to buy this.!!

Now if you see it has nine rubber stamp from different cities applied in 1902!! Look at the quality of rubber stamp i.e. type of ink used, detail information about date applied and also complete detail of other things.!!

Don't  you think this was custom made specially for collector.!!?, because postal administration has lot of things to do other than applying cancellation with proper care (such as space to emboss rubber stamp, making sure clear date is shown etc.!!)

Read following screen shot how this postcard was traveled including date, city etc. and after that you decide whether this is worth $3000 or $3.!!

So what do you think about this China stamps collection value.

Does it make sense this in China Stamps.?

Does China stamp collection value is this much.!! Or it's falsely glorified to cheat new rich people in China to invest in stamps.!!!

Now what do you think after reading all the details about postcard travel through postal stream of various countries in 1902 through sea and again with seller in Turkey after considering

1) type of material used in 1902 such as paper, ink etc.
2) weather during travel as well as with various collector storage,

Following are FORGED rubber stamps we call it as postmark of Germany and you decide what are the chance of this kind of rubber stamps on your thematic collection.

Even EXPERTIZING certificates, hand stamps and forged signatures of experts in philatelic society were also forged, so it was very hard for regular collectors like me and you to find out authenticity about the material.

Click following link to read more about BLUM case and OPEN YOUR EYES.!! There are 650 forged rubber stamps from Germany  and think about chances of forged from INDIA or China or any other countries.!!

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/06/fake-ffc-flown-in-airbus-a380-with.html

http://www.filatelia.fi/forgeries/blum.html

Now look at the following rubber stamps from Calcutta and Bombay from India and think what are chances of forgery like BLUM case.

Above rubber stamps are taken from same eBay seller who is also selling China stamps philatelic material. This Gandhi First day cancellation as well as Gandhi First Day cover is for sale at $3000 or Make a offer.!!

My offer is $5!! (combine postage charge only).!! In order to win a medal with this kind of material I need to be famous stamp collector as well as active in philatelic exhibition around the world so no one can question authenticity of this.!!!

Also I need to give copy of this to some philatelic book writer so it will be published.!!! And then I will start selling with help of friend or son/daughter living abroad (just to mail this cover).!!

So don't you think this London Street, Calcutta and Colaba, Bombay  can be forged easily.!!!

I think so.!!

Also it does not make sense to have just regular rubber stamp when there was "Jai Hind" first day cancellation  special cancellation issued for this stamp.!! 

BTW : There are plenty of "Jai Hind" FoRgErY or BoGuS special cancellation are available from different cities also.!!!

It's a BIG SCAM or SCANDAL.!!! (Click following link to read it)

Is Gandhi stamps all about Forgery ? Biggest SCAM in stamp collection ?

Now also look at some of the famous Gandhi philatelic material ofcourse it should be FORGED or BOGUS to make it famous.!!!

Read my blog post about following BOGUS FORGED Gandhi stamps and philatelic cancellation with rubber stamp applied on piece of paper or envelope and trying to MAKE huge money instead of selling just MINT stamps.!!

Gandhi SERVICE FAKE : http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/04/gandhi-service-stamp-how-one-can-tell.html

So after reading all this do you think it make sense to collect USED postcards or cover?

Don't you think philatelic judges and philatelic association needs to look thoroughly to verify authenticity of this kind of material because it's very hard for them to look information about 100+ years ago and chances of that information might be incorrect or wrong such  as we see it in Gandhi Handbook.!! (http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/08/gandhi-handbook.html)

First Air Mail Post

We all Gandhi stamp collector know that it's BOGUS or forgery when you see special cancellation or postmark on piece of paper.!!

In past 4 years we had seen some unbelievable forgery or BOGUS postmark or cancellation, but we never saw cachet on stamp.!!

Following is a cachet issued during 1911 for first air mail post flown from Allahabad, India. Please keep in mind that this is not first air mail post postmark or first air mail post special cancellation.  

It's a cachet which is applied on cover to celebrate certain events. In 1900 they were using rubber stamp but now a days it's a all about printing on cover.

Following are 2 cachet and one of them is forged!! It will be impossible to know which one is forged and which is genuine.!! (might be both are forged.!!, as it's easy to make living good life by selling stamps or philatelic material.!!)

Recently I saw India 1900 First Air Mail Post postmark on eBay was on auction by "elagen1" from UK which is still available for 10 pounds only after 100+ years.!!

I think reason for this low price is because

1) Forgeries of this cachet is only available in today's market.

2) Piece of paper cancellation is more doubtful.

3) Inflated price by Shill bidding.

4) Glorified by showing it as  high value and various exhibit and museum.

Also as per philatelic source (which can't be trusted) that 6500 letters were carried by this airplane.!!

Also one person show's up at receiving end.!!

Looks like no one was interested to see airplane also.!! 

Can you believe that.!!

Even if air plane goes today at that ground there will more then 100 people to see the plane.!!

Also flight time was only 13 minutes and 5 miles in distance.!!

Letters were mailed to King of England as well as Motilal Nehru father of first prime minster of India.!!!

That does not mean it was in deed travel through first air mail.!!

It's nothing but fantasy STORY which we believe is true and it really happened.!!

Above is official First Aerial mail from UK and India. Look at the cancellation and think which will be genuine.

Even UK was industrial nation with all kind of machinery did not issued cancellation with plane on it's cancellation even though it first air mail was after India.!!!

Click following link to read my blog post and you decide about above reason and think what is going on in First Air Mail Post or First Aerial mail or First Aerial Post or First Flight mail cover.

First Aerial Post : India 1911 World 1st AERIAL POST ALLAHABAD

First Aerial Mail Post and Gandhi Stamps material SELLER.

FIRST AERIAL POST : INDIAN PHILATELY EXPOSED - PART III

INDIA STAMP FIRST AERIAL POST 1911 ALLAHABAD : Indian Philately Exposed - Part IV

World First flight mail cover ?

First Aerial Post : Do you really think it's RARE and demands such a high price in philatelic collection? Is it valid in philatelic exhibition if postage stamps used is not valid ? or it's VALUE LESS.!!

As you can see on rubber stamp it is First Aerial Post, but seller is selling as First Air Mail Post.!! Of course meaning of both is same, but when you search online on goggle about first aerial post and first air mail post it will be different searches.!!

But we have seen lot of forgery or BOGUS in Gandhi stamps on piece of paper so chance of this King Edward stamp is very very high. 

Following blog post will give you idea about India stamp used abroad, India stamp used Tibet etc which are Forgery or BOGUS stamps and philatelic material.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/01/tibet-1949-gandhi-stamp-registered.html

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/08/gandhi-stamps-independence-day-of-india.html

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/01/stamp-used-abroad-india-stamp.html

What do you think about following King Edward stamp on piece of paper used in Tibet as Forgery or BOGUS stamp ?

To me it's very very high.!!

It's philatelic material or just piece of paper.!!

After reading complete blog post and all the links  you need to decide whether it's Forgery or Bogus or even Genuine.!! It's your money and you need to spent wisely.!!

Other wise you will be using this paper for different kinds of things.!!

We all know that in order to make that in stamp collection RARE is a great thing.!! And in order to make rare philatelic material chances of getting FORGERY is very high or 100% BOGUS material will be introduce in your collection.

It's not only in Gandhi stamps there are forgery on piece of paper. We had seen on Queen Victoria stamp, King George V stamps (KGV stamp) etc. Read following blog post to understand this.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/12/india-used-abroad.html

This is also a great way to make money because if you sell just plain mint stamp then it will sell for $1 or there might be no buyer. But if you make it used stamp on envelope it will be sold for high price.!!

Now if you see above screenshot from eBay were seller "london-stamps" is selling this for $117.!!

Don't you think it's easy to make this kind of philatelic material by applying rubber stamp on piece of paper with stamp on it.!!

We had seen what kind of rubber stamps are made in Gandhi stamps to create some famous BOGUS (never exist) philatelic material!!

Following blog post will explain you that indeed that Indian Stamps and Philately (British India and 1948 Gandhi Stamps) needs to be examined before you even think about buying it.

Forgery in Indian Philately as well as 1854 Queen Victoria stamps.
Beware of First Aerial Mail.
King Edward stamp and Gandhi Stamps.!!
Gandhi Stamps and Independence of India. (shameless act !!)
A Hobby in Decline.!!

In past I saw 2 auction of forged cancellation of East India stamp and Queen Victoria stamps were selling with forged cancellation. (Of course seller mentioned this are FAKE or Forged philatelic material otherwise I will not know.!!, also it's selling at very minimum price. I saw Gandhi forged stamps sold for $1000!! which was also FAKE(shill bidding).!!)

This are Forged cancellation on East India Company stamp from Penang Octagonal cancellation and Sungei Ujong Chop cancellation.!!! on Queen Victoria stamps, King George V stamps.!!

So don't you see similarity with Gandhi Philately material.!! Following cancellation  are some of the  FAKE or FORGED special cancellation, postmark cancellation or local post office cancellation. It's just a RUBBER STAMP which my kids use to play to make art work.!! such as butterflies, rainbow, animals, etc.!!

Read my blog post about following BOGUS FORGED Gandhi stamps and philatelic cancellation with rubber stamp applied on piece of paper or envelope and trying to MAKE huge money instead of selling just MINT stamps.!!

Above are all bogus RUBBER stamps (which never exist) or forgery which will help future collectors whether they really want to start collecting stamps and philately.!!

-Following is my previous blog post about Forgery Stamps of King Edward and King George --

Forgery in stamp collection and philatelic material is nothing new. It has been going around since last 150 years since Penny Black first every stamp issued by Great Britain. But the quantity  and quality of forged stamps we see in today's world is unbelievable.

It's hard which one is REAL and which one is FAKE. And if it is on used cover or register cover with forged postmark cancellation it will be impossible for new or regular collector.!!

In Indian stamps and philately specially in Gandhi collection we have seen lot of forgery stamps and philatelic materials, some of them are following.

1) Forged 1948 India Gandhi stamps

2) Forged 1948 India Gandhi SERVICE overprint stamp

3) Forged 1948 Gandhi Mourning first day cover.(different way to mourn.!!)

4) 1911 First Aerial Mail special cachet cancellation from Allahabad

5) Forged 1854 Queen Victoria stamp.

Looks like Gandhi stamps and philatelic material have all kinds of Forgery.!!! including Indian Philatelic items such as 1911 First Aerial Mail from Allahabad and 1854 Queen Victoria stamps.!!

So what do you think about First Air Mail Post or First Aerial mail or First Aerial Post or First Flight mail cover cancellation?

Thanks
