1948 India Gandhi Stamp collection research expertising. Investment in stamp collection ?

Following are some of the expensive Gandhi stamps material sold on eBay.

This is for your research before you buy any 1948 Gandhi stamps from India as a stamp investment or as alternative investment other than gold or share/stock or real estate property.

1) Are this genuine 1948 Gandhi stamps on the cover ?

2) Are this genuine Jai Hind special cancellation issued on 15 August 1948 ?(or rubber stamp)

3) Are this genuine CDS (cancellation date stamp) on the cover ?

4) Do you think this are really travelled to destination ?

5) Do you think this are really sold on eBay for this much money ?

6) Do you think eBay as well as PayPal got commission from this transaction?

7) Do you think local government got tax from this selling ?

8) Do you think any government got capital gain tax from this collectible item selling ?

9) and you need to come up with another 92 before you decide !!!

Please read my 700+ blog on Gandhi stamps and you have to decide because it's your money you will be investing.!

But my personal opinion (my certificate of stamp expertise) is all of this is FAKE or Forgery.!! It's my personal opinion as everyone opinion differ.

But my opinion is free not like BPA or RPLS where they charge money and they don't take any responsibility or liability even after issuing certificate.

What is stamp Expertising or stamp authentication?

Above eBay 8-9 transaction are $10000.!! for piece of paper.!!

Do you really think some one is spending this kind of money on 1948 India Gandhi stamp collection or philatelic hobby.

No one is collecting anything right now as no one has time because of lot of other activities in the world such as surfing on internet, watching Netflix or youtube or social media like facebook or tiktok or even watching TV and Movies and on top of that people are watching cricket or soccer or other sports.

But someone is buying it as per this transaction which is good for ebay(get commission 10%) and paypal (2-3%) and California and USA Federal Tax from capital gain tax on collectible items  or seller's country from where they are selling.

Also buyer country residence will get local tax where buyer reside as eBay as to collect tax.!!

Do you think all of them are getting money from this.? To me it will be about $2000 to $4000 depending on countries.

It's hard to tell as majority of stamp collection transaction are fake (never processed through) as buyer do SHILL bidding (bidding with other id) or friend will buy it for them and they cancel transaction.!!

But if you see on eBay there are lot of Gandhi stamps are sold and currently available.!!

And you might be thinking this selling price is genuine.?

So do your research as it's very easy to make this kind of postal cover as it only required some old postal envelope and rubber stamps.!!

Very easy way to make money on eBay or any other live auction or online auction by famous auction house.

So think before you invest in stamp.!!

I will never invest in stamp as alternative investment as there is no law or legal entity control's it.

Also there are very few investor to buy.

So stick with Gold or Share/Stocks or Real estate property.!!

Again it's your money.!!! so you can burn how ever you want to burn.

Thanks
