First Aerial Mail Post and Gandhi Stamps material SELLER.

Hello Gandhi Philatelist,

It is very important to see overall picture of stamps and philately when you are in involved in that hobby because you can find out  what is happening or what happened in past.!! and you can protect yourself from financial loss as well as emotional.!!

You all have seen in FAKE and Forgery Gandhi Philately material with FAKE cancellation(does not exist, like Germany), Forgery cancellation (1948 India), Insufficient postage (Tibet Gandhi),  FAKE cover (Nepal Indian Embassy 1948 cancellation), fake SPECIMEN stamp (from UNKNOWN country!!), Forgery in 1948 India Gandhi SERVICE stamps, Forgery in Gandhi SERVICE stamp on piece of paper with Governor General PO Cancellation, FAKE zip code address and lot more.!!

If you are reading for first time you will be surprised with what's going in Gandhi Stamps and Philatelic materials.!! It's indeed true and if you want to read click any of the above link and try to research yourself.

Now I see lot of similarities between Gandhi Philately material and Indian Philately material including 1911 First Aerial Mail, British India King Edward, British India Queen Victoria, Indian States etc.

You can read my previous 3 blog post related to First Aerial Mail by clicking following link. 

1) FAKE cancellation of First Aerial Post  (It's easy to make Rubber stamp & buy INK !!)
4) This blog post.!!



Recently I saw 1911 First Aerial Post cancellation on cover (Register) with only 4 Anna stamp.!!! My research indicates that 8 Anna stamp was just required for Registration plus another postage stamp depending on destination.

Following is screenshot of 1911 First Aerial Mail cover from Allahabad on eBay for sale.!

Description : Cover is addressed to Fyzabad, India. Register cover with Jal Cooper Type-II Registration Label (Short Type). Very Very difficult to get!. Cover is in very good condition for its age. It has a 4 Anna stamp cancelled by a fine strike in magenta of the famous First Aerial Post 1911.



Seller : "drpokiri"
Price : 1950$

(I am not mentioning that above cover is FAKE. It might be indeed Genuine, but you all know how BAD is Gandhi Philatelic collection and if you compare with that I doubt all kind of this RARE items.!!)

I have following question about this cover.

1) What is the value of this cover with  insufficient postage (without postage due rubber stamp)  on cover in philatelic world? (is it FAKE?)

2) How post office excepted registration cover without proper postage as registration required manually human interaction.!! (is it FAKE?)

3) Why  "postage due" rubber stamp is not on the cover ? (is it FAKE?)

4) Why different registration label (possible this is FAKE too) then we see on other covers.!!

5) How the cancellation INK looks very new.!! Also cancellation is like very precise. Nothing missing on cancellation even after 100 years of weather changes!! 

In past we have seen same seller "drpokiri" selling Forged cover with same cancellation with RED ink so it makes me more curious about this cover and start thinking how we can trust this cover. Looks like similarity in Gandhi stamps and philately material seller also.!! In past we saw "buyitnowitem" and "ph4uv" selling wide varities of  FAKE materials

To me it looks just different ink.!! RED or MAGENTA.!!  Read more about that FAKE First Aerial Mail cover cancellation with RED ink by clicking following link.


Following is screenshot of Forgery FAKE special postmark cancellation. (Click above link to read. It's interesting to know.!!)

But also look at other 2 postmark cancellation date stamp (CDS) from Allahabad.!!



So don't you see similarity between First Aerial Mail and following Gandhi Philately material. It's just RUBBER STAMP and it's very easy to make.!!


Click following link to read more about above FAKE FDC with Gandhi Stamps.!!


Now after looking all of the above what do you think about similarity about First Aerial Mail.?

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.!!

So don't you think similarity between seller of Gandhi Philatelic material and other philatelic material such as First Aerial Post, British India Stamps,  Queen Victoria and King George Stamps.

So my advice is to stay away from all lucrative offers about INVESTMENT in 1948 Gandhi stamp from India or any British India stamp collection.

So beware what are you collecting.

So you need to think always before you buy otherwise you will regret.

To me at the end it will be JUST PIECE OF PAPER.!!

If you have money to throw away then start collecting  British India Stamps, 1948 Gandhi Stamps and Philatelic material and you will have a PIECE of PAPER (with no peace of mind.!!).

Still cannot decide then read following blog post which might help you.


Still not decided then my opinion is AVOID it all the cost.!! and have peace of mind instead of worrying you are buying Genuine material.!!!

To me all Gandhi Philatelic material available ( specially before 1950) looks FAKE or Forgery as it is very hard to find Genuine stuff and as new collectors (like me) wants to collect, so some greedy experienced collectors/dealers will provide  all of us as well as experienced collectors.!!

Still want to do research  then please read my other blog post and have fun.!!

PANAMA GANDHI STAMPS : ONE OF THE HIGHLY INFLATED PRICE IN STAMP COLLECTION.!!!

Hello Gandhi Stamps Collectors,

Panama Gandhi stamp is one of the expensive (inflated) Gandhi stamps after ten rupees 1948 Gandhi Stamps from India.

In past this stamp was sold from $137 - $47 which according was highly inflated. You can read my previous blog post about this and understand what's going on.






Now recently I saw this Panama Gandhi stamp is selling from FIXED price of $60.!!! So I am not sure what previous buyer's feeling about his purchase (cheated by others or fooled others.!!) who bought this stamp for $137.!!!!!!

But this is PART of Gandhi stamp collection.!!!!!!!!

REGRET ......!! if genuine buyer!!

JOY...............!! if fooled other.!!

http://delcampe.net/page/item/id,187831853,var,Panama-Selections-Scott-C384-MH-10c-Mahatma-Gandhi-VERY-SCARCE-CV$60,language,E.html



But more interesting thing is that SCOTT catalog value recently increased from 60 cents to $60.!!  so what was SCOTT catalog company doing since last 40 years. ?

How we can trust SCOTT catalog value.!!! They did not update their catalog or Panama Gandhi stamp is highly inflated and they were not aware of this "Philatelic GAME!!"

Yes it's a Philatelic GAME not Hobby anymore!!!!!!!!!!! 

You have to play not collect.!!

I am surprised that there are no buyer at $60 for this Panama Gandhi stamp even though used Panama Gandhi stamps (YES, USED) is selling from  $70 - 150 (4050 - 8000 Indian Rupees) on eBay India (following screenshot)  and Mint is selling for $180 (9500 Indian Rupees).!!!

Don't you think it's INFLATED.? which makes me think about Glorification of Gandhi Stamps.!! so it's true that Gandhi stamps are FALSE HOPES of RICHES.

http://www.ebay.in/sch/i.html?_nkw=panama+gandhi&_sacat=169977&_odkw=panama+gandhi&_osacat=169977&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313

If you want to read more about Panama Gandhi stamps then please check out following blog post.
1) What a price difference in Panama Gandhi stamps.
2) Panama Gandhi Cover with 3 stamps. Expensive Gandhi used cover.
3) Panama Gandhi FDC : Is it real.!! ?

If you ever buy this stamp for more then 10-20$( this is also expensive or you will inflate it.!!) then chances are you will quit Gandhi Philately, because it is too expensive as still there are lot of hidden Panama Gandhi stamps which will come in market in next 50 years and you will start loosing value instead of appreciating.  Let the dealer and reseller try to protect their Panama stamps and accumulate for us.!!

Please read following series of my blog post  to understand what is going on stamp collecting world specially in Indian Philatelic materials and you will think it's all BOGUS.!! Yes it's all BOGUS.!!

Mahatma Gandhi Stamps : Is it GENUINE, FAKE OR STOLEN?

Hello Gandhi Philatelist,

Recently I saw a hand made paper cover with 1948 Gandhi stamps and cancellation from Indian Embassy of Nepal with dated on 15th August 1948 (I questioned about availability of this stamp on this date in Nepal.!!) which was also first day of issue of this stamps.!! It's indeed a unique cover (if Genuine??) send to Prime Minister of Nepal.!!
As all you know that I own this kind of private FDC( which I consider FAKE even though I paid $80!!)  from Indian Embassy of Nepal and wrote multiple blog post (click following to read)  about this only to bring awarness to all collectors.


I have following question about this cover before we can claim as Genuine.

1) Really send (given as gift) to PM ?? or just address.!!
2) Why not given on some authenticate envelope with some kind of Logo of Indian Embassy or rubber stamp of Emblem of India.?
3) Why not any detail who presented or gave this cover to him such as signature or rubber stamp of Ambassador of India or Consul-General of India.
4) Is there any other proof that it was indeed given to Prime Minister such as seal of Nepal Prime Minister Office?
5) If Genuine how this Government property or private collection is coming to Market for sale.!! 
6) Why hand made paper envelope ?
7) Even BPA or RPSL certification expert will be confused as it will very hard for them to find out that it was indeed send to PM of Nepal!!

If it is Genuine then  it is a gift and it should either be in museum or with some relatives of PM!!

I can get cancellation from local post office and type address to any PM or King  so it does not mean it was really send to that person or given as gift.  

So to me it is not worth collecting this kind of philatelic material send to some dignitaries.!! specially with 1948 Gandhi Stamps!! It's all BOGUS.!!

If it is Genuine cover (I don't think so) then it should be Stolen from NEPAL Government and People of Nepal. (seller might not know that it was Stolen!! He might be just selling it from stock he bought it from someone like we saw it in 1933 Tibet paper cover with Tibet stamps and 1948 Gandhi stamp with circular  Indian Embassy of  Nepal cancellation!!)  


Also this kind of material don't come in auction without proper proof and with real owner. Let's take example of recent Gandhiji letter to his friend Kallenbach. It was for auction in July 2012 from relative of Dr. Isa Sarid, Kallenbach's great grandniece, money was giving to Sarid's son by Indian Government.!!  That is known as Genuine philatelic material.!!





But who cares eBay is making money on this transaction and I hope PayPal is also making money on this sale.!! (Disclosure : I own eBay stock in my retirement account as well as recently I do trading of eBay stock). Also I was one of the bidder on this auction, but lost.!!!


This was one of the expensive FDC with 1948 Gandhi Stamps from India was sold in August. You can see other expensive Gandhi philately material sold in that month.


Even chances of FAKE stamps are very high on used cover because they are available in plenty.

Do you think eBay got commission from this auction ?

Reason for thinking about this that all the bids you see might be FAKE or shill bidding and after auction closes seller and buyer mutually withdraw bid, so they don't have to pay commission.!!

Or buyer don't pay so seller will open case with eBay so seller will not have to pay commission.

Here if transaction is genuine eBay will get $450 + commission from Paypal which will be $200-$300!

Do you think eBay shareholder are CHEATED by buyer or seller ?

Chances are very high.





Please read following series of my blog post  to understand what is going on stamp collecting world specially in Indian Philatelic materials and you will think it's all BOGUS.!! Yes it's all BOGUS.!!

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) First Aerial Post - Indian Philately Exposed - Part III
10) 1911 First Aerial Post - Allahabad - Indian Philately Exposed - Part IV


Now what do you think about this Nepal Indian Embassy cancellation send to Prime Minister.!! 
Yes. Prime Minister of Nepal.!!

So what do you think about this cover ?

Is it Genuine ?

Is it FAKE or BOGUS?

OR

Is it STOLEN?

My guess is 2nd options.!! So to me this is not worth collecting or investing in it.!!

But it's up to you to decide whether this kind of material is for you or not, as you have to pay.!!

Thanks

Aseem Trivedi Cartoon "National Joke" also makes sense for Gandhi Stamps and Philatelic.!!

Hello,

"Satyameva Jayate" (Truth Alone Triumphs) is a mantra from the ancient Indian scripture Mundaka Upanishad. Upon independence of India, it was adopted as the national motto of India. It is inscribed in Devanagari script at the base of the national emblem. The emblem and words 'Satyameva Jayate' are inscribed on one side of all Indian currency.

Recently Indian Cartoonist Aseem Trivedi was arrested (read news) and  was charged with sedition for insulting national symbols through his cartoons. The cartoons in question are on the theme Cartoons Against Corruption and one of them depicts the Indian national emblem as comprising wolves in place of lions and the slogan Bhrashtameva Jayate in place of Satyameva Jayate.

I think following cartoon "National Joke Satyamev Jayate" is not only "National Joke" but can also apply as "Gandhi Stamps and Philately Joke.!!"




Reason for this no one cares and respect National Emblem in Gandhi Philately as it's only to make money out of it.

Whether it is Germany 2009 Gandhi Special Cancellation or it's 1948 Nepal Indian Embassy cancellation or 1948 First day "Jai Hind" special cancellation.

Please read my following blog post  and check out following images (to me it's a national joke) about following FAKE AND FORGED Gandhi stamps and philatelic cancellation.



So now don't you think Gandhi Stamps and Philately is a also "National Joke" !! where no philatelist care what's happening in Gandhi Philately,  what's they are doing with National Emblem by illegally using it and making FORGED special postmark cancellation and also making forged Indian Embassy cancellation and lot more.!!!

But I hope one day "Truth Alone Triumphs" in India and it will "Not National Joke" as well as in Gandhi Stamps and Philately.!!

Satyameva Jayate!!

Aseem Trivedi Cartoons using National emblem to protest corruption and Gandhi FAKE Germany Cancellation with Emblem of India to celebrate first anniversary of Winnenden school shooting


Hello Gandhi Collectors,

I read news about arrest of Aseem Trivedi (Indian Cartoonist) that he was charged with sedition for insulting national symbols through his cartoons. The cartoons in question are on the theme Cartoons Against Corruption and one of them depicts the Indian national emblem as comprising wolves in place of lions and the slogan Bhrashtameva Jayate in place of Satyameva Jayate.




But in Gandhi Philately we are seeing lot of FAKE and FORGERY special cancellation with "Emblem of India" from Germany issued in 2009 on International Day of Non-Violence.



Above special cancellation are FAKE as per German Postal Service. So that means that "Emblem of India" was also used without permission of Indian Goverment ( Indian Embassy of Germany).

Read my previous blog post about this FAKE Germany Cancellation

1) FAKE Germany 2009 Cancellation
2) It's back again with special cancellation issued to celebrate 1st anniversary of Winnenden School shooting.!!
3) Offical used of National Emblem of India and Gandhi Postcard and Specail Cancellation

So my question is what is more INSULTING ?

Making Cartoon to protest using National Emblem ?

or

Making FAKE special cancellation to cheat people and make money using National Emblem!!?


So my advice is to stay away from all lucrative offers about INVESTMENT in 1948 Gandhi stamp from India or any British India stamp collection.

So beware what are you collecting.

So you need to think always before you buy otherwise you will regret.

To me at the end it will be JUST PIECE OF PAPER.!!

If you have money to throw away then start collecting  British India Stamps, 1948 Gandhi Stamps and Philatelic material and you will have a PIECE of PAPER (with no peace of mind.!!).

Still cannot decide then read following blog post which might help you.


Still not decided then my opinion is AVOID it all the cost.!! and have peace of mind instead of worrying you are buying Genuine material.!!!

To me all Gandhi Philatelic material available ( specially before 1950) looks FAKE or Forgery as it is very hard to find Genuine stuff and as new collectors (like me) wants to collect, so some greedy experienced collectors/dealers will provide  all of us as well as experienced collectors.!!

Still want to do research  then please read my other blog post and have fun.!!

King George VI stamp and Gandhi SERVICE stamp used on piece of paper. Is it FORGERY of Indian Government Service?

Hello Gandhi Philatelist,



In past I wrote extensively about Gandhi SERVICE stamp in my blog. To understand this blog post please click following so you can figured out what's going on in Gandhi 1948 SERVICE stamps as well as 1948 Gandhi Stamps from India.

1948 Gandhi Facsimile stamp including Gandhi SERVICE stamp
Maryland Forgery
FAKE 10 Rs. SERVICE stamp price $1009 to $1 in just 4 months?

After reading above blog post you are aware that Gandhi SERVICE stamp with Governor General PO is very hard to find on used cover as well as piece on paper.!! and FORGERY is available in large quantity.!! (Thanks to Mr. Ashok Bayanwala for writing article about this and Thanks to Mr. Jinghan for exhibiting on Stamps of India website)

Following is the large quantity(very rare!!) currently for sale!! In past 6 months I had seen more than 30 for sale!!




Out of which I found interesting. I saw two Gandhi SERVICE stamps with KGVI on a piece of paper with Governor General Camp P.O. (Click this link to see it on delcampe) and it's starting price is 3000 Euros.!!!

Yes 3000 Euros.!!!

But I noticed that date of cancellation on that piece of paper is 15 May 1949 which was SUNDAY.

* Do any one know Governor General was working on SUNDAY in 1949 ?

* Do any one know Governor office (post office / camp p.o) was open on SUNDAY in 1949?

* How can you tell that this piece of paper is from Offical Cover  as it is mentioned in description.?

* Did you notice that King George Stamp is regular stamp ? SERVICE overprint is missing? Is it Error.!! (No there was also regular stamps of King George.!!)

* Don't you think collector or receiver or maker of this piece on paper don't know the value of this.!!! You can see 1 or 2 or 3 on piece of paper but not 30+ in last 2-3 months.

* Don't you think it's easy to make this kind of rubber stamp?

What do you think about this Gandhi SERVICE stamp with Governor General PO date stamp?

FAKE or FORGED ?

I think your guess will be mine.!!



We all had seen FAKE stamp of 1948 India GANDHI SERVICE for all kind of value!!

So now do you think it's above Governor-General cancellation GENUINE ? or FAKE (just piece of paper) ?

This is how to make money in Philatelic.!! Use Mint stamps worth $5 and make $4000!! by creating this kind of material.!!

So BEWARE in Gandhi Philately as well as all other British India Philately.!!

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

Click one of the following link and you will become smarter.!!

1) Philatelic FAKE and FORGERIES.
2) FAKE AERO PHILATELY Covers.
3) Stamp collection CHEATING.
4) Stamp Collection Value
5) Stamp Collecting Facts
6) China stamp collection value.

8) World First Flight Cover
9) Greatest Stamp Collection Scandal 
10) Biggest stamp collection SCAM
11) SCANDAL in stamp collection

International Reply Coupon India Round Table Conference 1931 : Is it Genuine Cancellation ?

Hello Gandhi Collectors,

The three Round Table Conferences of 1930–32 were a series of conferences organized by the British government to discuss constitutional reforms in India.  

First Round Table Conference (November 1930 – January 1931)
Second Round Table Conference (September – December 1931) [Gandhi attended this one only]
Third Round Table Conference (November – December 1932)

Recently I saw 1931 India Round Table Conference cancellation from UK on International Reply Coupon which was not even attended by Mahatma Gandhi. 



Looking to all FAKE and Forgery in  Gandhi Philately I also question this kind of rubber stamp.!! 

But there is also another Indian Round Table Conference Cancellation!!!!!!


Can you find difference between two?

Don't know why two different cancellation in just just 10-11 months even though first one is for 1st round table and other one is for 2nd round table conference.

Not sure which is Genuine and which one is FAKE or both FAKE.!!

My other blog post about Round Table Conference  is http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/09/certificate-of-posting-reciept.html

Gandhi Philatelist are aware of lot of Forgery in Indian Philately such 1911 First Aerial Mail special cancellation, Gandhi SERVICE stamp cancellation by Governor General Camp PO,  1948 Gandhi stamp with forged "Jai Hind" special cancellation. (please click following link to read it.!!)




Also don't forget about one of the most famous recent FAKE special cancellation  from Germany (completely FAKE as it is not even exist or not issued by German post!!) issued to celebrate first anniversary of Winnenden School Massacre on October 2nd 2009.!!! on occasion of International Day of Non-Violence.!! (Extreme or Desperate example to make money and glorification of Gandhi philatelic.!!)

Also don't you think this is ongoing in Indian Philately after seeing 1911  First Aerial Mail Forged cancellation from Allahabad, India during U.P.Exhibition.!! (click following link to read it.!!)


FAKE First Aerial Mail Cancellation :  http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/07/first-aerial-post.html

If all of the above is possible, so don't you think it is easy to make this Round Table Conference cancellation (Rubber stamp)!!


But main thing in real life is that when you buy something you make sure about brand name, seller reputation etc. So don't you think same principle also apply in philatelic.!!!


Following is Reply Coupon from UK sold by ebay seller  "ph4uv".  In past this seller sold or was selling FAKE cancellation cover from Lithanuina as well as Gandhi Philately material. Please read my blog post to understand and you decide what is all this.!! 


CAN YOU TRUST THIS "ROUND TABLE CONFERENCE CANCELLATION?"



After reading this blog post do you think that this International Reply coupon has genuine cancellation of "19 Jan 31".

I don't think this cancellation as philatelic material so I don't collect this kind of coupon, but even if someone tells me that this is important event for Gandhiji I will buy it because it does not make sense at all to just jump in to rubber stamp world.!!

Don't you think expensive it goes more Forgery happens.!! This was for sale for only $475!!!!!!! You can find unused Reply coupon and after that just use rubber stamp. Now you have $475 worth of GANDHI philatelic material.!!


Following screenshot is a preview of rubber stamp I tried (anyone can) to make one one  rubberstamp.net using round table cancellation image (all the top of this blog). I only previewed it, not order it.!!



Now you have to decide whether this Indian Round Table cancellation is Genuine or Forged or even FAKE.!!

Don't you think it's easy to make all this special cancellation, postmark cancellation, post office cancellation and apply to any mint or even used covers, postcards or even International Reply Coupon (Coupon Response International.).!!

It's very hard to find Genuine cancellation (special cancellation) as it is very easy to forged.!!!

Still cannot decide then read following blog post which might help you.


Still not decided then my opinion is AVOID it all the cost.!! and have peace of mind instead of worrying you are buying Genuine material.!!!

To me all Gandhi Philatelic material available ( specially before 1950) looks FAKE or Forgery as it is very hard to find Genuine stuff and as new collectors (like me) wants to collect, so some greedy experienced collectors/dealers will provide  all of us as well as experienced collectors.!!

Thanks

Indian Philately Exposed !! : Forged Cancellation B/172 Straits Settlements

Hello Gandhi Philatelist,

It looks like FAKE or Forged is a way to go in Indian Philately especially in British India, Indian Princely states and 1948 Gandhi Stamps as well as other Gandhi 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.!!


Recently 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 B/172 Straits Settlements  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 FAKE AND FORGED Gandhi stamps and philatelic cancellation.






I hope this will help future collectors whether they really want to start collecting GANDHI stamps and philately.!!


Some useful blog post which might help you to protect yourself from this gruesome philately world.!!



Thanks
Gandhi Stamps Club
