GANDHI STAMPS CLUB

Exposing illegal activities by investigating what's happening in Gandhi Stamps. I don't want any other stamp collector to get cheated ever like I was cheated because there was no blog, website or book which gives you reality about Forgery, Fake, Shill bidding and correct pricing in Gandhi Stamps and Philately. Think this blog as GANDHI STAMPS NEWSPAPER. No Profit or NON PROFIT approach without trying to sell anything or no advertisement and expressing my freedom of speech.

MOST VALUABLE STAMP VALUE : WHAT IS STAMPS COLLECTION WORTH.

We all know how stamps are sold on eBay. If you don't know then learn all tricks of trade, so you can avoid CHEATING in stamp collection buying and there is nothing like most valuable stamp value except very few for which you want to know "what is stamps collection worth"

You will be cheated by one of the following ways, so BEWARE or CAUTION about it by making it FALSE most valuable stamp

There is lot of SHILL bidding to increase price
Buyer don't pay to seller after winning it in order to increase price.
Selling FORGERY as genuine
Shipping forgery after selling genuine stamps.
Buyer did not received stamp even though they got it.

So what you see pricing is not always correct indication of most valuable stamp value.

Also what you read in Philatelic HANDBOOKS or Online Exhibits are also not correct as there is lot of incorrect information deliberately provided to readers so they will buy some forged materials.!!

Also don't think winning medal exhibits provide correct information, because some times philatelic judges also don't know or they don't want to oppose the exhibitor (as he/she might be well known). This think is specially happens in India, so don't follow Award winning exhibits.

Also self exhibition during special cermony is a great marketing tool to provide incorrect information so avoid that also.

Following is most valuable stamp of Gandhi which was issued in 1948 by India. It was sold on March 27, 2014 by UK eBay seller "Collstamps" for $106 (64 UK pounds).

Not sure whether this Genuine or Forgery stamp because it's very hard to find out unless you get stamp in your hand and if you don't see it throughly after buying you might have piece of paper(colorful).

You will read in blogs or philatelic website or stamps forum about pricing of this 1948 stamps as $400 or $500!!

Click following link to read my blog post about India Gandhi 1948 Stamps value and you will surprised what is asking price ($1200, $800, $600) , # of offers (8 offers), Large quantity (10 pieces) available etc, which is nothing but forgery and bogus stuff.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/06/stamp-catalog-value-does-this-make.html

Also read following blog post to see current selling price of 10 Rupees Gandhi stamps.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/01/india-stamps-10-rupees-1948-gandhi.html

But according to me it's all glorification to sell their stamps.!!

Following is the detail of stamps bidding where 14 stamp bidders were bidding to buy this stamp !!

Do you really think all are genuine buyer who are really interested.? (It's FREE to bid, It's Free to open account.!! and no one puts you in jail if you don't pay.!!)

Forgery stamps are available in all expensive item. Any thing above $20 will be forged because it's lot of money for 3rd world countries, so people can make living by just selling FORGERY as genuine !!

Following is Facsimile stamp selling for under $10. What are chances of getting like this.!!

You will not find any difference.!!

In past I wrote blog post about this kind of REPLICA or FACSIMILE stamps which will give you idea about most valuable stamp value : what is stamps collection worth so read it carefully and understand what's going on.

Click to read it.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2014/03/rare-stamps-king-george-stamps-kg-v.html

Recently I saw rare stamps of Morrocco Agencies overprinted on King George - KG V stamps selling for around $180 and I thought what are chances of this are Forgery.!!

Reason for this conclusion is that there are wide varieties of FORGERY rare stamps of King Geroge stamps or KG V stamps are available on eBay.

There is a great push by group of experienced collector to sell forgery as genuine by Glorification of stamps through online stamp exhibit, philatelic website, blogs etc as an Investment in stamps.!! with help of financial advisor and other auction house.

These experienced collectors turn dealers - turn online/offline stamp exhibitor - turn philatelic judges or whatever they turned in - they will try to make money by displaying original image of stamps but they might send you different stamp which might be replica or copy or facsimile.!!

If you don't pay attention when it arrives you will be CHEATED.!!!

But reality is different as stamp collecting hobby is DYING.!!!

And if you don't want to DIE DUMB then please read all or some of the blog post which will explain you what's going on in stamp collection or philately world.!!

Why I am writing this because I was cheated by seller on eBay and declampe as there was no information about SHILL bidding or Forgery stamps or forged or bogus philatelic material with rubber stamp.

So I decided let's educate others with knowledge I gained.!!

Also forgery stamps are available at very cheap under $5 and you can sell it for $180.!! Lot of money can be made so it's motivating to sell forgery as genuine.!!

Don't you think you love money.!! so if $5 can make you $180 then why not give it a try.!! It's free to list on eBay so you don't have to spend any money to sell.!!!

Pay commission to eBay only if someone is cheated by buying this stamp.!!

One can easily cheated if they are not aware of this Forgery stamps selling as Replica or Copy or Facsimile stamps and get piece of paper instead of rare stamp.!!

I am not expert so I cannot tell whether this Morrocco King George Stamp or KG V stamps is genuine or forgery, so it's up to you to decide because expert certification are also forged.!!

If I have to buy it I will avoid it, because it's nothing but a big SCAM.

10 ) Make money by OVERPRINTING stamps.!!

Following are all FORGERY stamp selling under $10.!!!. Seller is selling as forgery and that's the reason price is very low.

So what are chances of you getting this forgery stamps as GENUINE stamp.!!!

I think a lot because it will be very hard to find difference because all kind of photocopy and printers available in today technology world.

Read some of interesting blog post to see what's going in Gandhi stamps collection and think in your other collectibles items as well.!!

Germany FDC : Stamp collection price

Recently I saw Germany 1969 FDC Mahatma Gandhi Hindu India Indien selling on eBay at unbelievable price.

This Germany FDC were printed in very very large quantity and it should be available easily at throw away price under 25-50 cents.!! Not only Germany FDC but any item in stamp collection is very very low.

If you are wondering what will be my stamp collection price in future or what will be my stamp collection price right now than you might be surprised when you try to sell it.

Also stamp collection is declining through out the world and there are barely any buyers at even this price because dealers are not interested to purchase and resell because it's very hard to sell unless they cheat you by SHILL bidding to increase price or use other id to increase price in order to glorify Germany FDC or any other collectibles items.

Also there are FAKE FDC also available. Click following link to see it.

FDC - First Day cover Forgery or Bogus

Nicaragua 100 Years of Cinema FDC - Forgery gone wrong.!!

But here seller "allstamps4you" is selling for more than $15.!!

If you don't know research about pricing than you will regret buying at very high price.

Thanks

RPS certificate - Royal Philatelic Society Certificate of Great Britain stamps

Recently I saw 1969 Great Britain Gandhi stamp printed on Gum side sold for $2225 on eBay by seller from Great Britain "capital-collectables".

It also has stamp Expertization certificate from "The Royal Philatelic Society" or RPS certificate # 212225 issued on 30 May 2012 submitted by "M. Dave"

Lot of money for eBay/PayPal as they will get huge commission on this sale. (about $200).!! Do you really think eBay got commission on this sale.?

In past I wrote about STUDY OF RPS certificate were I discussed about FORGERY of expertizing certificates.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/02/study-of-rps-expertizing-certificate.html

After reading above blog post what do you think about following RPS expertising certificate # 212225 issued on 30 May 2012.

Do you really think Gandhi Unmounted Mint Gummed side with RPS Certificate submitted by "M. Dave" and Capital-collectables is really worth $2225.?

So if there was one sheet printed on gum side there might be 120 stamps (per sheet) were printed on gum side and some of them still has house to stay.

So one sheet will be worth around $267,000.!!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/GANDHI-UNMOUNTED-MINT-PRINTED-GUMMED-SIDE-RPS-CERT-Cat-1500-/231166581517

You need to see connection in this sale.

Seller : Capital-collectables (UK)

Expert Certificate submitted by : M. Dave

Buyer : d***1(302) (our famous hitlergandhi)

But if you see stamp hobby is declining and no one collect stamps. Recently this regular sheet was sold for $15 as well as for $28.!!

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/10/gandhi-centenary-great-britain-stamp.html

In past I wrote about used postcard with Great Britain Gandhi Stamps printed on gum side.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/04/gandhi-1970-one-of-kind-great-britain.html

So what this will be worth ? (of course there is no RPS cert) as I bought it without RPS certificate on eBay without it.

Of course there are forgery RPS certificate are also available. Like we saw for 1948 Gandhi SERVICE stamps or India Bird Error stamps so any thing is possible.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/01/expensive-gandhi-stamp.html

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/11/most-expensive-stamp.html

So what do you think about this pricing ? Did it really sold for $2225.!!

Of course on eBay you can see it as sold but it's not always true, because chances of SHILL bidding, buyer don't pay to seller or seller cancel the transaction after completion in order to increase price so it's glorified.

So think what you buy at what price otherwise you will ?

Used commonwealth stamps - KGVI postcard - King George Stamp - How to make money on internet.

By now we all know how to make money on internet by selling stamps. It needs to be unique or rare such as used commonwealth stamps with KGVI postcard or King George Stamp or some Gandhi stamps used and sell as commonwealth stamps.

Recently I saw King George Postcard from British India used from Pakistan and send to India was for auction for $95.

It has very clear cancellation as if it was made with special care by post office personal as used commonwealth stamps of KGVI postcard - King George Stamp from Pakistan to India.

Do you really think this is really used from Pakistan ?

Do you really think this is really travel through postal stream and came to India ?

Or do you think it's just a rubber stamp and applied it on postcard during commonwealth era and made it a unique used commonwealth stamps postcard of KGVI.?

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/12/king-george-stamps.html

Don't you think it's a JOKE stamps as investment.!! Will you ever pay $1500 for this kind of used commonwealth stamps - KGVI postcard - King George Stamp ?

Used Stamps - INDIAN STATES STAMPS - King George Stamps - King Edward stamps

Recently I saw FINE QUALITY 56 INDIAN AND INDIAN STATES STAMPS USED AND MINT VERY RARE! for sale on eBay for $3200.!! This auction has Used Stamps from INDIAN STATES STAMPS and British India King George Stamps

After looking this stamps to me it's not even valued $3. This is highly overpriced, just to trap unknown buyer who don't know about stamps or to glorify stamps by showing high price.

Also stamp collection is declining and no new collectors are coming to this hobby, lot of SHILL bidding, lot of Buyer don't pay to seller after increasing price etc so it's even very hard to sell or buy at right price.

This auction also has India Gandhi stamps issued in 1948, British India King George Stamps, British India King Edward stamps and Overprint of Indian states name on British India stamps.

Following are Used Stamps - INDIAN STATES STAMPS - King George Stamps - King Edward stamps in this auction.

Read my following blog post about FAKE AND FORGED Gandhi stamps and philatelic cancellation and decide what are chances of FORGERY.

Germany FAKE Cancellation : http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2010/01/fake-gandhi-postmark-cancel-from.html

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

Also chances of getting caught is less because it's USED by applying rubber stamp, keeping in soil or exposing to sun and make it toned.!!

How we know whether this genuine price or just inflated price as we see all the time.

It will be very hard to find out unless you work in eBay or you are the seller!!

I think so, but you have to make decision.

Click one of the following link to make your decision and you decide what you see is genuine or forgery.

1) Philatelic FAKE and FORGERIES.
2) FAKE AERO PHILATELY Covers.
3) Stamp collection CHEATING.

Used stamps value - Used stamps for sale

We all started stamp collection by collecting used stamps. But after a while we think what will be my Used stamps value or Used stamps for sale.

But there are more forgery in USED stamp than Mint stamp because in Mint stamp you can only make replica or copy as forgery where as in USED stamp there are lot of ways to increase the value of stamps by creating UNIQUE rubber stamp and applying on piece of paper with Mint stamp.

And now it will be Used stamps for sale and that also for with high Used stamps value.

In following example it looks like stamp is genuine but overprint on stamp (SERVICE) is forged and also rubber stamp apply on it is forged too.

If only stamp without overprint (SERVICE) was for sale there will be no buyer but here it was forged with overprint and applying rubber stamp of Governor General post office postmark after affix on piece on paper.

In this way it was created UNIQUE and RARE stamp for stamp collectors.

This kind of USED stamps or philatelic material are glorified by all of the following, so you will pay more for this USED stamp and it will be easier to sell used stamps.!!

1) Exhibiting in stamp exhibition by International stamp winning exhibitor.( no one knows it's genuine or forged as what happened 50-100 years ago)

2) Stamp catalog (they just value as per last year selling price, but don't know about all cheating)

3) Stamp and Philatelic Handbooks. (best way to market to sell their used stamps and also their friends who wants to sell their forged items.)

4) Online exhibition. ( best place to publish your material so collectors will look in to it.)

5) Online blogs, stamp forum, stamps boards etc. (best place to spread the word, whether it's good intense of bad.)

6) Exhibit as solo philatelist for special occasion or give some kind of speech about used stamps and never mentioned what's going on in USED stamps because it will impact them also.!! (value of Mahatma Gandhi in today's world or Life journey of Gandhi by stamps or whatever.)

Stamp without SERVICE overprint was sold only for $2 with only 1 bidder.!!

In past I wrote following blog post about it so read it and understand what's going on Used stamps value - Used stamps for sale.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/09/king-george-vi-stamp-and-gandhi-service.html

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/12/most-valuable-postage-stamp.html

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/11/most-expensive-stamp.html

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/04/expensive-india-stamps-rare-indian-stamp.html

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/06/india-stamps-1948-gandhi-overprint.html

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

This stamp was sold for $62.!!

I am not sure who is buying this kind of material without detail description.!! (that it's a Gandhi Overprint stamp with Governor General Cancellation (rubber stamp).!!

In past 4+ years I saw more than 100 of this kind of Used stamp for sale on piece of paper.!! Not sure eBay got commission for this kind of Used stamps sale.

But there are chances of

1) SHILL Bidding

2) Buyer don't pay to seller

3) FAKE Bidding to increase bid etc.

So what you see on eBay selling price is not always correct information. It's all about glorification of stamps!!

In stamp collection there is 99% of all of the above 3 things are possible.

So what do you think about this Used stamps value - Used stamps for sale?

Need help to decide then click following link to read about Gandhi SERVICE stamp blog post and you will be amazed what kind of activity is going in USED stamps.!!

FRENCH INDIA Colonial stamps - Pondicherry Postmark - FORGERY ?

I wrote following blog post about Biggest FORGERY in stamp collection involved only one single stamp.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/02/gandhi-stamps-and-1948-jai-hind-special.html

Recently I saw FRENCH INDIA Colonial stamps - Pondicherry Postmark FDC with Gandhi stamps for $5000.!!

Because in 1948 Pondicherry was still not part of India as it was under French India so of course it will be SCARE cover, but it does not make sense at all that Indian post and telegraph will issue a special cancellation for French India post office in Pondicherry.

It's one of the example of glorified Gandhi FDC through various following means of glorification in order to make money.!!

1) Online Exhibit of Gandhi Stamps
2) Mentioned about this in Philatelic HANDBOOK.
3) Exhibiting in stamp show.

We all know how important is money in our life and we are so desperate to get money by any means of cheating in order to live a good life.

Even Experienced Gandhi stamp collector and award winning exhibitor knows all this thing going in Gandhi stamp collection, but they don't spread words in their exhibition or blogs or website about this big forgery as they don't care because their stamp collection value is increasing!!

Also it's shameful to tell people that there is lot of Forgeries and Bogus in market, because it's affects them.!!

Of course no one cares about this forgery in stamp collection as there is no real owner or company who will file complaint and some of the postal department don't have resources like some brand name companies of expensive items of Rolex watches or Gucci ladies purse or Burberry items.

Good life differs for each and every person. For some it's money and some don't care money for good life.

One of the person who don't care of money was Mahatma Gandhi.

But in today's world we don't care what kind of cheating we do in order to make money even with Mahatma Gandhi is involved in it.!!

Following is FORGERY postmark which is created to make money.!!

In order to make money the maker of this first day cover used Pondicherry postmark so it can be presented as RARE or SCARE FDC.!!

If it was normal FDC with BOMBAY postmark no one will be interested as it's not RARE and it might sold for less than $300-$400!!

Now why I am thinking it's FORGERY postmark because it's does not make sense for Indian Post and Telegraph to issue this.

But to me it looks like FORGERY because it's nothing but a rubber stamp.

Following is FRENCH INDIA Colonial Pondicherry Postmark with Gandhi Stamps of India.

Can you believe this ?

Scare FDC Gandhi 1948 India Independence Full stamp Jai Hind - Pondicherry postmark.

It is marketed as scare Pondicherry postmark.!!

But also marketed as "Less than 5 covers known to have existed.!!"

Don't know how seller knows that only 5 cover existed.

Only way seller knows if he/she or his/her family made it in 1948 or he/she inherited it and they were counting # of FDC from Pondicherry post office.!!

Can you believe this non sense.?

If it was genuine then lot of FDC will be made because French India colonial stamps were popular and there were lot of collectors in France and other French Colonial.!!

Now compare this Pondicherry postmark with other issued or FORGED or BOGUS postmark and think what are you getting it.

In past I compared special cancellation issued from BOMBAY, but in this blog post I am comparing or display which ever I saw on eBay so everyone can get idea what happened in past 65+ years or is happening currently as you read this.!!

But it's nothing like 1948 Gandhi stamps with special cancellation including forged stamps. To me it looks like very large quantity of FORGED or BOGUS first day cover with special cancellation are roaming in the market.!!

Following are just a tip of iceberg from wide varities of 1948 Gandhi special cancellation from India.

Please look at all screenshot of 1948 Gandhi stamps with special cancellation and do SELF study before you pursue your dream or nightmare.!!

When you try to collect cancellation from different cities, then chances are that you might get BOGUS (never issued) or FORGED cancellation if it's rare available from small cities.!!

Chances are some collectors or dealers might have decided that let's create this 1948 Gandhi First Day Cover thematic collection from different cities of India.!!

Also you might see some BOGUS (never issued) or Forged cancellation from Nepal India Embassy, Pondicherry ( former French India until 1954) etc.

Compare following and you decide.!! HALF of them are BOGUS (not forgery, because it never exist or issued by P&T India.!!). You decide which are BOGUS (fantasy).

Calcutta cancellation is Forgery and Simla cancellation are both different.!!

Both SHILLONG cancellation looks different with HINDI alphabet "Jai Hind" and type & # of lines.

Compare above four cancellation from BOMBAY and check for # of lines, types of lines in center of special cancellation. (some has 7 and some has 8 and some don't make sense.!!)

Above two cancellation are from MADRAS. Only cancellation with "AUG".!! Also look at the difference between them in shapes. Also "." is missing.

Forgers have not only manufactured stamps for the philatelic market, they have added forged cancellations to those stamps.

Forged cancellations have also be applied to genuine stamps, in cases where the stamps are worth much more postally used. In addition, where rare cancellations are desired by collectors, those cancellations have also been forged.

Cancellations also may be used to prove that certain philatelic items are genuine. For example, forgers have fabricated many supposedly valuable postal covers by adding genuine stamps and forged postal markings to pre-stamp covers. (From Wikipedia)

Poona & Simla cancellation looks like BOGUS

Don't your think it's UGLY out there ?

Above two cancellation are from NAGPUR looks BOGUS. Look at the difference.

Kanpur & Patna cancellation with irregular alphabets and letters along with shapes

Delhi and New Delhi cancellation. Looks at the difference.

Pondicherry was ruled by French India in 1948. Compare it with MADRAS which only has "AUG" where as Pondicherry has "AUGUST" even though they are very near.!!

Does ALLAHABAD & PATNA cancellation looks like GENUINE ?

What to SELF study ?

1) G.P.O missing on Simla, Nagpur and Shillong. WHY ? ( Genuine or BOGUS or Forgery)
2) Alphabet type and size : Shillong, Delhi, New Delhi
3) Shapes of special cancellation (Madras)
4) Is it AUG or AUGUST.
5) Compare lines and size inside the cancellation
6) Compare Hindi languague alphabet "जय हिन्द"
7) All kinds of different things you can think and compare.!!

To me it looks like a BIG SCAM.!!!!!! But it's upto you to decide.!!!

Now you do SELF Study and decide and think deep what happened or happening.!!

There is nothing RARE or Scare in philately because this hobby is in downward trend because experienced collectors are loosing interest because value is not appreciating and new collectors are not coming in to this because there are lot of other things to do for them such as playing video games on Nintendo or X-box , social networking on facebook or google+ or surfing on web through internet or SMS through iphone or android or watch games such as cricket, football or basketball on TV.

Only way philately can sustain is to stop cheating in this hobby. Yes CHEATING.!! which is what you will see in order to increase value artificially by inflating the price by SHILL bidding, not paying to seller or mutual understanding cancelling transaction and lot more.

To know more about this kind of activity read my following blog post and think what are the possibilities in cheating, glorification, SHILL bidding, FAKE, Forgery etc.

1) 1948 Stamps False hope of Riches?
2) 1948 Gandhi Stamps: Are False hope of Riches - Part II ?
3) 1948 Gandhi Mourning Private FDC : Are False hope of Riches - Part III?
4) 1948 Expensive Gandhi FDC : Are False hope of Riches - Part IV?
5) 1948 Gandhi Stamps Early Usage cover : Gandhi Stamps Are False hope of Riches - Part V?
6) Maxi Card sold for $5100 with 1948 Gandhi Stamps - False hope of Riches - Part VI?
7) Indian Philately Exposed
8) Indian Philately Exposed - Part II
9) Gandhi SERVICE overprint stamp price fell from $1009 to $1.!!
10) How can you tell that Gandhi SERVICE stamp is FAKE or Forgery ?

I hope all the above will help while making decision in investing stamps and to avoid getting CHEATED.!!

Now don't you think it does NOT make sense STAMP INVESTING!! or even Collecting.!!!

Do you think it's INVESTMENT or GAME.!!

I think it's not for Investment but it's a Philatelic GAME.!!

So let's see how to play Philatelic Game.!! (click to read how to, rules and regulations.!!)

So now what do you think about FRENCH INDIA Colonial stamps - Pondicherry Postmark - FORGERY ?

You don't see 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950,1951,1952, 1953 first day cover with other special cancellation issued from Pondicherry even though it was still ruled by French India.!!

Look following 1952 Mirabai stamps of India with regular Pondicherry postmark from post office.

It don't have special cancellation .!! WHY ?

After 3 years of issuing Gandhi Special Cancellation they don't issue special cancellation like "Jai Hind" for this stamps.!!

To me this circular post office postmark is nothing but a FORGED rubber stamp.!!

Why only Gandhi First Day Cover with special cancellation from Pondicherry and not poet stamps from India FDC with special cancellation and cacheted cover like following even though it was issued after 3 years.!!!

Because Gandhi FDC from Pondicherry and other smaller town (except 4 big cities) it's nothing but to CHEAT you and make you Idiot.!!

But chances of forgery of following is also likely!! so BEWARE what you are buying or collecting.!! Everything is FORGED when prices is high.!! same way like Rolex watches or Gucci ladies purse or Burberry purse.!!

So think before you start collecting FRENCH INDIA Colonial stamps - Pondicherry Postmark or any other stamp collection.

Thanks
