Philatelic register used stamps cover

Yesterday I wrote blog post were philatelic register used stamp cover was sold for only $5 which has three 1948 India Gandhi stamps. 

"Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover"

Following are two Philatelic used stamps cover for comparison. 

You cna guess for which philatelic cover you will pay $5 or $153!!? (if you have not read my previous blog post).

In today's blog post I am writing about philatelic used cover (not register) with just single 1948 India Gandhi stamps which was sold for $153 by "asdaasdaasda" from China.

Not sure why it was sold for this high value even though it's just philatelic register used stamps cover.!!

To me it looks only difference is seller "asdaasdaasda" is from China and buyer is "d***i (364)".

We all know "d***i(364)" in past had not paid to seller.!!

Don't you think something is WRONG in going in Gandhi stamps collection ?

It's lot of money for eBay shareholder from eBay/PayPal fees if buyer has paid to seller.

Yes if buyer has paid.!!

What I have seen in Gandhi Stamp Collection as well as other thematic collection, some collector/dealers increase price and don't pay to seller in order to glorify stamp collection so others will think that's the real value.!!

Or some seller use Shill Bidding (with different eBay id) to increase price.

In past I bought some mint stamps from "asdaasdaasda" and to me it looks suspicious because I paid high price for mint stamps as I don't know all the tricks of trade on eBay!! This is my personal review like we give it on Yelp or TripAdvisor.!! (You don't have to believe it same way like you don't trust other reviews).

Do you think seller paid for this item and eBay shareholder (like me) are benefited from this kind of transaction ?

But you all know that in past you saw very HIGH PRICED Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover were SOLD.

Don't you think it's nothing but Glorification by SHILL Bidding or Not Paying to seller ?

Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover

We all know stamp collection is in great downward trend and which also apply to Gandhi  stamps  as well as Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover.

Yesterday I saw Calcutta India to Richmond Virginia USA Registered Cover GANDHI which was sold for $5 and there was only one bidder for this Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover. 

This Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover has three 12 annas 1948 Gandhi stamp from India and 4 annas British India stamp of King George stamps.

So what do think about stamp collection ? (does it make sense to collect).

Also does it make sense to collect Philatelic cover or Used stamp cover value or Gandhi Commercial used cover?

But you all know that in past you saw very HIGH PRICED Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover were SOLD.

Following philatelic cover was sold for $153 with just single 1948 Gandhi stamps and that's not even register cover.

So what do you think about following Philatelic cover - Used stamp cover value - Gandhi Commercial used cover ?

Is it really worth $153.?

If you compare following philatelic cover with above $5 Philatelic cover than I think it looks some what suspicious ?

What a difference not only in # of stamps but also in value.!!

Don't you think it's nothing but Glorification by SHILL Bidding or Not Paying to seller ? Following two blog post will explain about it.
