Zeppelin Air mail cover : FORGERY is selling as GENUINE ?

You might be wondering what it has to do with Gandhi stamps and Zeppelin Air mail cover, but if you don't see overall philatelic selling and buying practice then you will not know what are chances of this happening in your thematic collection.

So according to me if it is possible in Zeppelin Air mail cover it's possible in Gandhi stamps cover too.!!

We need to learn from all kinds of thematic collection selling on eBay or Delcampe or other auction house because all stamp sellers (dealers) are using same technique/method/procedure to forged items in order to make money from you by selling some unique or rare or bogus forged philatelic material.!! So BEWARE.

Stamp collection is highly glorified so people will think about investing in stamps but it's nothing but philatelic SCAM.

Recently I saw another Zeppelin Air Mail cover sold for $143 from eBay seller "delhaye.david.phila" from Belgium.

Do you really think this genuine Zeppelin Air mail cover  ?

Do you really think it's a genuine transaction on eBay were seller got money and eBay got commission on Zeppelin Air mail cover ?

In past I wrote blog post about FORGERY of Aero Philately cover- First Air Mail Flight Covers - Zeppelin Covers. 

About 20 Forgery Zeppelin postcards were sold for $50, so it was about $2.50 per zeppelin postcard. Click following link to read it and think or imagine what are chances of this Zeppelin Air Mail cover sold to you instead of genuine.

So what are chances of Forgery Zeppelin Air Mail Cover sold as genuine ?

Do you think forgery sold as genuine is possible.? 

My personal opinion is YES. It's possible.

I had seen lot in Gandhi stamp collection which has lot of similarities in all thematic collection. 

Do you think Belgium eBay got commission from this transaction ?  It's lot of money for eBay shareholder.!!

It's lot of money when you convert this in to some third world countries money (income) were some one can make living for 2 months with $143.!

Now it's up to you to decide whether you want to spend money on genuine item or piece of paper as it's very hard to find any genuine information as all Handbooks or yearly book of that time might be forged too or BOGUS (never exist like we saw 2009 Gandhi Germany special cancellation) because they are the people who might be involved in  that to make this kind of forged material and publish it or they might got from some friend to publish it in their books and glorified this kind of material.

In past we have seen forgery of  Rarities India stamps of King George stamps, King Edward Stamps and Queen Victoria stamps from various countries so this is nothing new in British India stamps.

Don't you think it's easy to do because here you don't even need to make rubber stamp with alphabets, numbers or special symbols?

If forger can make rubber stamp of 1948 Gandhi special cancellation or one of the famous FAKE special cancellation from Germany with Emblem of India all this square or circle with just lines are very easy to forged and applied.

2) Make a forged stamp like following screenshot how easy is it to make a rubber stamp and create forged philatelic material from India  which will be RARITIES INDIA 1854 stamps.

Read my blog post about following FAKE AND FORGED Gandhi stamps and philatelic cancellation.

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

Mauritius FAKE zipcode : http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/11/early-usage-of-indian-pincode-classic.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!!

$717 is good money for eBay Shareholders as they will get commission from this sell  and their stock price depends on this commission.

Also USA Federal Income tax and State government will get tax on this kind of sale also which will keep economy running for everyone.!!!

So now my question is do you think stamp collection is this much popular in 2013 and price is getting top dollars.?

Or this is a SHILL Bidding ?

We had seen this in  Gandhi stamp collection, were everyone think they are smarter than other.!!! Do you think this apply to other ZEPPELIN AIR MAIL COVER also.
