Forgery 1948 Gandhi Stamps First Day Cover from India with RPSL expert stamp certificate

Recently I saw on eBay INDIA 1948 GANDHI FIRST DAY COVER WITH NEW DELHI CANCELLATION, RPSL CERT. selling for $5000 by eBay seller "cmcstamps" from California but item is located outside USA.!!! Not sure this tax invasion or money laundering.!!

In past I wrote about Forgery and FAKE (not exist) CDS rubber stamp from different cities of India with 1948 Gandhi stamps FDC or cover.

Also I wrote about Forgery stamps of Gandhi issued in 1948 including SPECIMEN stamps and OVERPRINT SERVICE stamps.

But now I can see FORGERY FIRST DAY COVER also.

After looking in depth to me it looks like FORGERY. (don't have to . believe my opinion like expert certificate).

Reason for FORGERY is that First Day Cover (envelope) is misprinted.!!

I is missing in INDIAN.

But it still passed through Royal Philatelic Society Limited RPSL certificate committee. So who is right ?

Me or RPSL cert committee. ?

It's up to you to believe as it's your money.!!

Believe in yourself and decide whether it make sense to invest in Gandhi Stamps.?

My opinion about Gandhi stamp collection is nothing by overhyped by Stamp auctioneer and stamp dealers(collectors) by writing Handbook or by providing FAKE (never exist) philatelic material to Handbook.

You cannot even trust Handbook as you have to believe in yourself.

NOT SURE RPSL CERTIFICATE IS ALSO FORGERY ?

YOU NEED TO DECIDE.!!

IN PAST WE HAD SEEN LOT OF FORGERY EXPERT CERTIFICATE NOT ONLY FROM RPSL OR BPA BUT ANY EXPERT.

ALSO ANYONE CAN GIVE EXPERT CERTIFICATE AS THERE IS NO LEGAL GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT IN ANY COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD WHO MONITOR THIS CERTIFICATE.

TO ME EXPERT CERT. IS TO MAKE YOU FOOL.!!

Even First day covers without stamps are selling for $40.

Which also looks FORGERY.

So avoid Gandhi Stamp collection otherwise you will regret all your life. (Like me.!!)

Thanks

Leather Folder SPECIMEN stamp - How to MAKE forgery or BOGUS stamps philatelic material.

Today I saw 1948 Gandhi SPECIMEN stamp from India which are FORGERY (copy or facsimile).

If seller don't mention it that following is a high quality copy (forgery) then someone will really get cheated.!! 

To me this is a BOGUS specimen stamp (never issued), but someone with extra creative mind decided to overprint and call it a genuine SPECIMEN stamp and it is published in lot of philatelic material.!!

Following is forgery stamp of that BOGUS stamp.!!!

Following is SPECIMEN stamp from leather folder which is BOGUS.!!

As per philatelic material (never trust them) this SPECIMEN stamp were issued in leather velvet folder with stamps with EMBLEM of India.

But while looking some of the rare stamps of Mahatma Gandhi and while researching I was surprised to see  two types of leather folder with specimen stamp.(there might be more).

Not sure there was it's an error folder or wide varieties issued by Swiss printer as per philatelic material such as stamp exhibit, handbooks, yearbooks etc with SPECIMEN stamp of 1948 Gandhi.

I don't think it will ERROR leather folder because as per philatelic material it was issued by Swiss printer Courvosier and they were one of the world's best printer.!!

So it's forgery or BOGUS (never exist) but it made it through various philatelic sources such as stamp Handbook, stamp exhibition, online stamp exhibition, auction houses, website, philatelic journal etc.

BTW : Emblem of India was official declared in 1951 were as this folder were issued in 1948.!! 

So it looks like nothing but BOGUS.!!

But also this is ILLEGAL use of Government of India Emblem.!! 

So Beware what you are buying it or collecting it or exhibiting it.!!

To me it looks like only 1948 Gandhi stamps has various folders.

There are record # of folders with 1948 Gandhi stamps which you can read by clicking following link.

What's going in Rare stamps folder brochures?

You can make lot of money by buying following FORGERY stamp with SPECIMEN overprint on it with serial number also and put in any folder and call it a RARE stamp with rare folder.!!

In past this rare specimen stamp in folder was for sale on eBay for one million rupees.!

Yes 1,000,000.!!  It's Ten lakhs rupees.!!

This is made for stamp INVESTMENT!!

So what do you think about this SPECIMEN stamp ?

What do you think about leather folder issued in 1948 with Emblem of India ?

BEWARE.!!

Please look at the following screenshot of expensive Gandhi Philatelic material sold  and you will think, Is Gandhi Stamps are for only RICH people or Is this a real transaction or a way to inflate the price so you will buy same or similar philatelic material it at half price or less thinking you got a great discount.!!

Collectors (Buyer) stay in this hobby if you have following kind of buying power  like ebay buyer "hitlerandgandhi", "blue_guy_1234", "philapragya24" , "echobangla" etc otherwise run away from this hobby and Think Different hobby(it's a game).!!!

Do you really think eBay got commission from this transaction ?

It will be more than $2500 only from eBay + PayPal fees will be extra.!!

Or eBay is also CHEATED by seller not paying commission as they did not get money from buyer.!!

Click above image to see enlarge copy of it so you can see details.

What do you think about this all expensive Gandhi Philatelic material purchase.?

Collectors (Seller) stay in this hobby only if you have above kind of philatelic material such as from drpokiri(aka stampsniper), akhtarkk, barrydavid2005 etc. 

If you don't have this then learn how to sell it at high price and stay in this hobby(it's a game).!!

Study all buyers and sellers activity and then you can play this game of hobby too.!!

Ebay buyer "hitlerandgandhi" from India bought more than 25000 US Dollars worth of Philatelic material mostly Gandhi in less than 30 days.!!

Also in August 2011 he bought some expensive 1948 FDC. Click following link to see what he purchased.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/08/believe-it-or-not-price-of-india-1948.html

I am not sure who is "hitlerandgandhi" but to me he looks like a very rich person!! who is spending this kind of  offical white money openly in public auction market without any fear of goverment because all this transactions are recorded on ebay and paypal and they keeps this kind of information for 7-15 years or more depending on finiancial transaction for any future inquiry.

Do you think "hitlerandgandhi" is really paying for this item?

After looking all the above sold Gandhi Philatelic material,  Do you think 1948 India Gandhi Stamps are false hope of RICHES? I think so.!!

Stamp Collecting : Did INTERNET kill stamp collecting ?

My view is that INTERNET kill stamp collecting hobby?

1) Lot of forgery items are selling on internet as they don't have to invest of managing website as they use eBay infrastructure as place holder of their item.

Biggest FORGERY in philatelic.!!

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/02/gandhi-stamps-and-1948-jai-hind-special.html

2) There is more forgery than genuine or only BOGUS philatelic item are selling at very very high price.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2014/02/rare-stamps-are-really-rare-stamps.html

3) On top of them Philatelic exhibition were forgery material started wining medals.!!

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/08/it-back-again-fake-winnenden-germany.html

4) Also forgery item were donated to Philatelic Museum in order to glorify forgery items.!!

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/07/first-aerial-post-indian-philately.html

5) Price of stamp collection was unbelievable because of SHILL bidding or not paying to seller. Of course lot of new collectors were victim of this SHILL bidding but eventually they just left hobby.!! (Death of Hobby).

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/02/shill-bidding-and-glorification.html

6) False glorification of stamps by exhibiting online so new collector think forgery material as genuine.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2012/07/indian-philately.html

7) Also lot of financial analyst started writing about stamp as investment and also advising their client to invest in stamp without informing what's actually going on.!! Even famous fellow collector friend will advice you to buy forgery as genuine.!!

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/12/most-valuable-postage-stamp.html

8) Also philatelic website, blogs, stamps forum, stamp boards etc.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/11/is-stamp-collection-hobby-scam.html

9) Same seller is selling items with multiple different accounts as it's free to open account on eBay.!! I notice some of them have more than 300-400 accounts.!! Yes 300-400 accounts.!! and they are just switching back and forth every  2-3 months/years.!!\

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2011/06/gandhi-philately-100th-blog-post-what.html

10) Also we cannot trust philatelic books  like Gandhi philatelic handbook  don't give you any  information as they don't know what is genuine and what is forged, but they just print it.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2013/08/gandhi-handbook.html

And all of the above cause Death of the stamp collecting hobby.!!

What you see on eBay (selling price, seller, buyer, feedback) is not truth.!! It's just all big game.!!

This also apply to other collectibles also such as coins, old photos etc.

Now if you see following screenshot you will realize that there are no buyer of 1948 Gandhi stamps with official folder from India Post and Telegraph.

This is not selling because 

1) Chance of forgery stamp on folder is possible.

2) Even if it is genuine stamps in folder, price don't justify for $261 or $326.

3) There are more folders available then collectors needs.

According to me this should not valued more than $50 even if has genuine stamp but it's false glorification and higher listing price because collector don't have to pay to sell anything until it sells.!!

Also chance of stamp collection will DIE eventually in next 50 years because of INTERNET as no one will know how to write as everyone will be typing email instead of writing letters.!!

So now don't you think INTERNET kill stamp collection.!!!

Also because of internet there are lot of new things such as online games,  social networking such as facebook or watching youtube  to do for general public than collect stamps.

So think before you start collecting stamps.!!

Also if you are collector like me think how you will sell your collection because there are no new buyers.!!! Try it.!!

But main reason for such a decline is FORGERY selling as Genuine on Internet which is killing this king of hobby.

Also price are increased by SHILL bidding in order to glorify stamps as well to increase value, which eventually brought down this King of Hobby.

It's like dealers and collectors want to ripoff new collectors instead of motivating new collectors and some experience and genuine collectors just sit and watch Philatelic GAME.!! instead of exposing what's going.!!

What to learn how to play Philatelic GAME then click following link to read my blog post.

1) Philatelic GAME.!!
2) Philatelic Greed !!
3) Stamp Collecting FACTS.

Also following are different ways to make money by selling stamps on Internet. (Of course is CHEATING!!)

Rare stamps : Are really rare stamps ?

When you collect stamps you want  RARE stamps in your collection to make it different unique collection from others.

But  rare stamps are available easily in Gandhi stamps or just someone (some group) is trying to make money by selling BOGUS(never exist) philatelic material as rare.!!

Now look at the following screenshot and you will see Courvoisier presentation folder with 1948 Gandhi stamps from India which is selling for $6600.!!

"Hélio Courvoisier S.A., La Chaux-de-Fonds" company was (1928 - 2001) world famous printers in Switzerland, with great quality (no errors) of their printing and ethical staff, who were printing all kind of stamps for different countries, but it's job is not present stamps on behalf of other countries.

It's countries postal department job to present this stamp in presentation folder.

So my personal opinion of this Courvoisier folder is BOGUS because it does not make sense that printer will come up with presentation folder.!! It should be from official postal department of that country.

But here you see it from printer.!!, which to me looks Bogus because it was never presented.

Also looking to the screenshot you will not find any information regarding stamps such as country, issuing date etc.

To me it looks like someone trying to make money by using  any folder available in market and printing "Courvoiser" or "C" on it, and that's the reason it's RARE stamps.!!

Have you ever seen courvoiser folder with other stamps?

I don't think you will ever find courvoiser folder because their job is to print stamps not to present stamps with presentation folder.!!

So it's nothing but trying to get your money by making it's rare.!!

Also presentation folder will be only one official from issuing countries, but in past 4 years I had seen more that 6 presentation folder.!!!

Also if it's a presentation folder it should have all kinds of information about stamps such as designer name, proof readers name, quantity of stamps, detail about stamps etc, but here there is no information except some bad quality printing on any folder (like marriage invitation card with string!!)

Following are some of my blog posts about rare stamps folders, so please click it and read what's going in rare stamps in world.!!

What's going in Rare stamps folder brochures?

COURVOISIER STAMPS FOLDER : 1948 Gandhi Stamps from India

So what do you think about this RARE stamps.!!?

Will you pay $6600 for this.?

I will not even pay $50 because chances of getting forgery stamps are also high because there are lot of 1948 India Gandhi stamps  forgery are available in market.
