Indian rare stamps price - stamp worth today?

Recently I saw 1948 India Gandhi stamps with 10 Rupees face value selling for $44 which means this is not indian rare stamps.!!

Now what is Gandhi 10 Rupees 1948 stamp worth today or Indian rare stamp price?

To me this $44 looks like real price without any Shill bidding or seller doing any illegal things to make money.

Also chances of price going down is very likely because there are no new stamp collectors (teen agers) coming to this hobby and all experienced collector (old) are either selling this stamp if they have it.!!

And that the reason Stamp collection hobby is declining.!!

And there are no rare stamps because every experienced collector wants to sell it before they die.

So no one is getting good price even if it is rare Indian stamp.!!

We all know Gandhi stamp is Glorified so much that seller's starting to price Gandhi Stamp as very high price.

If you see following screenshots were Gandhi 10 Rupees 1948 stamp is selling from $100 to $600.!!  

But there are no buyers.

But this 1948 Gandhi Stamps is nothing but Glorified by inflating price  and not paying it or shill bidding.

Seller knows all cheating happening in stamp selling such as 

1) Shill Bidding 

2) Buyer don't pay to seller

3) Seller show image of genuine item and sends you forgery items.

4) Not receiving stamp collection or cover after paying  .!! (By BUYER)

5) Creating forgery stamps and selling as Genuine.

6) Making forgery rubber stamps

7) Making Bogus rubber stamps of never exist cancellation

8) Publishing philatelic handbooks with incorrect information or forgery philatelic items

9) Exhibiting forgery items in stamp shows and online exhibit.

10) Writing incorrect information on stamp website, stamp blog, stamp forums, stamp boards etc.

11) Forgery or Bogus expertising certificate.

12) How to increase price and send SECOND OFFER. (Postal History Cheating)

In 2014 I saw this stamp sold for $80 and I still think it's too much. Read following blog post to know more about value of 10 rupees Gandhi Stamps from India issued in 1948.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2014/01/rare-and-expensive-collectibles.html (How to increase price)

After reading above three blog posts what do you think about all of the following 1948 Stamps available on eBay.?

Do you think 1948 Gandhi stamps from India

1) Is UNIQUE stamp or RARE stamp ?

2) Do you think it's valuation makes sense from  $120 to $600 for single or $3000 for block of four.?

To me it's not a unique or rare stamp as in just April 2014 there are more than 15 stamps available as buy it now and no one wants to buy it.!!

Also chances of getting forgery stamp is very very high as it will be very hard to find difference of quality of printers, perforation and gumming etc

So avoid it at all cost if you want to have dreams in night other wise nightmare is waiting for you.!!

Can you FIND out how many are FORGERY (replica, facsimile,copy) from the following screenshot which are currently available on eBay ?

So what do you think of all the above pricing of Gandhi 10 Rupees 1948 stamp worth today. (IT"S ALL HIGHLY INFLATED.)

Do you think this are rare Indian stamps ? (NO).

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.

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?

5) 1948 Gandhi Stamps Early Usage cover :  Gandhi Stamps Are False hope of Riches - Part V?

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 ?

Stamp collection price - Stamp as Investment ?

We all know stamp collection price is declining in real world except by some rare collectors who still believe that stamp collection is going  up in India and China.

According to me it's nothing but false glorification of stamp collection price by increasing price by SHILL bidding and not paying to seller by increasing price.

Now look at the following screenshot and you will be surprised about Stamp collection price by selling price and number of bidders bidding on this stamps or first day cover.

Gibraltar 1998 First Day cover of  Stamps of Wisdom of Gandhi, Churchill, Einstein and Shakespeare. After 15 years it's not even selling at face value of 1998.!!! And only one bidder was interested in this 4 stamps.!!!

This proves that stamp collection is declining and also it's not for investment.

Don't you think it's a JOKE stamps as investment.!!

Now look at following screen shot of India 1969 FDC with 4 Gandhi stamps who in world is glorified as one of the most famous stamp for collection, but when you see the price it don't even sell for more than original price if you count dollar value in 1969.!!

Again a  it's a JOKE stamps as investment.!!

Following is one more example Stamp collection price of 1969 Guyana first day cover with  2 Ghandhi stamp.!! It was sold for $2.!!

Don't you think it's a JOKE stamps as investment.!!

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

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

Mahatma Gandhi, Trinidad & Tobago stamp price is declining or this is the real price.!!

Hello Gandhi Collectors,

On April 13th I wrote about "How to Protect Yourself while buying Mahatma Gandhi stamps".

In that blog post I published my research on How seller tries to fool/FAKE you when selling Mahatma Gandhi stamps that they are from China, South Korea, Isarel and even USA and other countries. In that blog post I wrote about Trinidad & Tobago stamp sold for $12 by South Korea seller and buyer from India.

Today that same stamps sold for $2.!! So previous buyer lost 600% in less than 20 days.!! or something is going on such as shill bidding.!! I know what's going on but now you need to decide.

Does this makes sense or this is the REAL price?



On side note did you notice something weird on above ebay screen shot. It takes 14-23 days from Canada to arrive to USA!!!!!!!!!!!

So don't just buy it blindly. Wait and Watch and when price is right under $1 then buy it and don't have to pay $12.!!

You can buy same stamps for $0.60 (60 cents) on delcampe. Yes for 60 cents only.!!
Click following link to buy it

http://delcampe.net/page/item/id,116945834,var,Trinite-Tobago-1970-268-69-euro;-10-Mahatma-Gandhi,language,E.html

Also seller of this 60 cents T and T Gandhi stamp is Verified on Delcampe and member of Gold club so don't worry about getting cheated. Also 3000+ feedback by seller so go for it if you really wants to buy it. This are the 3 keys points when buying Mahatma Gandhi stamps. 1) # of Feedback 2) Verified Seller 3) Gold Club member.

South Africa RSA 1995 Mahatma Gandhi stamp sheet value - Price Declining.!! Part - 6

Hello Gandhi Collectors,

I was surprised by selling price of 2 sheets of RSA 1995 Mahatma Gandhi stamp sheet. It was sold for $4.99 + 1.00 shipping.!! .

Don't know why it sold at this price. Looks like really something is going on with Gandhi stamps.!!



This is really interesting that stamps value after 17 years is not appreciating at all and it's decreasing.


In past I had seen Great Britain, Ireland, Morocco, Malta  complete stamp sheet of Mahatma Gandhi selling at very low price.

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

Gandhi stamp value declining.!! KAMERUN - Cameroon - Cameroun Gandhi - Ghandi stamp, Syria Gandhi Stamp, Somalia Ghandi stamp

Recently I notice that there is stiff decline in demand of Gandhi stamp, which eventually is declining the price.

Today there were 7-8 Gandhi stamps were sold on ebay at very low price which was surpising me. I was thinking that 1969 stamps from Somalia, Syria & Cameroun - Kamerun are very rare stamps available in the market but this not a case.

Following is the price of sold item
GANDHI DU CAMEROUN 2 STAMP 1969 - 1.60 GBP

Gandhi SOMALIA 3 STAMPS 1969 -- 2.21 GBP

GANDHI SYRIAN TWO STAMPS 1969 -- 1.20 GBP.

Above screenshoot will make you start thinking about what's in this Gandhi Philately going on.!!

This is because of global economy meltdown effect or by better understanding of dealers and reseller.?
