DOES ANY ONE COLLECT STAMPS? - GANDHI CENSORED COVER TO GERMANY

Recently I saw India 1948 Gandhi stamps on censored cover to Germany sold for $3383 by ebay seller  "Krabinay" from Germany.

Do you think this is genuine or real value of this censored cover ?

Do you think this is genuine cover  or just some one made it up on some old envelope by putting rubber stamp (CDS).?

Do you think there was SHILL bidding ? You can see 16 bidders were interested in this cover with 41 bids.!?

Now forget about real or fake cover and let's think this is genuine transaction on eBay.


Do you think eBay got commission on this transaction ? It's about $300+

Do you think PayPal was used in this transaction and they got commission about $10.!!

Do you think VAT was paid as per European Union law on this transaction. ? It's about 20%.!! which comes out to be $600+.

Also how about any income tax as per Germany rules and regulation?


Don't you think it's very hard to find out all this information so we will never know the REAL value of this kind of covers.

On top of that DOES ANY ONE COLLECT STAMPS?

Before looking this kind of price and start investing think first other wise you will regret.

I will not pay even $5 for this cover because to me it all looks FAKE as no one would spend that much money for any regular cover in 1948.!!

Also no SENDER info.!!

So Beware.

It's easy to make this kind of philately material.

Just look for old envelope with address in some stamp exhibition with local stamp dealer and you will envelope with address

It's easy to make rubber stamp or someone has old stolen one.!!

Now buy that cover and  affix Gandhi stamps and put that rubber stamp.!!

You can make money !!

$3300.!!

If this is bought by some new collector.!!

Experienced collector knows all this tricks.!!
