Recently I saw Queen Victoria stamp - India 1854 QV used abroad B147 "Penang" four annas stamp sold for $970 by eBay seller "worldstamps22"
If you look at the details of this auction then you will be surprised.
# of bids : 64
# of bidders :- 14
Another thing I notice is the winner (m***1(private)) detail bidding and I was amazed because this buyer is bidding on 166 items and out of this 47% is with this same seller only!! (screenshot are at the end of the blog post)
Total bids: 176
Items bid on: 144
Bid activity (%) with this seller: 47% (67 bids with seller "worldstamps22" from Belgium)
Also don't you think bidding on this many items and this many bids make you suspicious.? Is it a stamp collector or a dealer.?
So what do you think about this buyer/seller/transaction ?
Now my question is do you really think 14 bidders were actually bidding on this auction or it's SHILL bidding on Queen Victoria stamp - India 1854 QV used abroad B147 "Penang" four annas stamp?
Do you really think that 14 bidders were really interested in buying this stamp or just want to increase price of Queen Victoria stamp - India 1854 QV used abroad B147 "Penang" four annas stamp ?
Following is FORGERY of Straits Settlements Penang cancellation. So what are chances of this B/147 also forged.like B/172.
In past I wrote following blog post related to Queen Victoria stamp - India 1854 QV stamps. Yes it has nothing to do with Gandhi stamp collection, but there is lot of things to learn and beware of things going in Queen Victoria stamp - India 1854 QV stamps as similar possibilities in Gandhi stamps collection also.
After reading above blog post what do you think about this cancellation ?
Is it really from Penang.?
Is it really a genuine stamps ?
Is it really sold for $970?
Is it really eBay got commission from this sale ?
It' easy to apply RUBBER stamp and make above stamp as used and sell it.
