Recently I saw India 1969 Gandhi Centenary 10p green post card with error of mis cut sold for $13.50 by ebay seller postal history paradise. from Romania.
This ebay transaction has 8 bids and 4 bidders, which was won by o***r(2591) and loser is 2***i(799).
Do you think people still collect postal history or stamps in this internet connected world ?
Do you think this is for alternative investment ?
When I did some research on this bidders it was very interesting. Winner o***r(2591) is bidding on 183 items with 461 bids.!!
But more interesting is that # of bids with this seller is 13% which will be about 60 bids.!!
So what do you think about this buyer ?
Really bidding on 183 items and 461 bids ?
My personal opinion about this kind of transaction is SHILL bidding ? Do you agree or disagree ? You don't have to believe in me. Also it's very hard for us to find out whether this is SHILL Bidding or not.
If you are new collector you will not know how to seller and buyer increase price using SHILL bidding.
But loser 2***i(799) is more interesting. He/She bidding on 78 items with 506 bids and 27% bid with this seller. That means he/she has 135 bids with this seller only.!!
So what do you think about this Postal History and alternative investment of India 1969 Gandhi stamps and postcard ?
