I checked that gentleman's feedback. He's in Russia, he has a 99.8% rating, and according to his feedback, someone else was happy buying a used 2590 for $7.00. I have over a hundred of them in a stockbook....
I received this response about the Columbia reprint sale “These are supposed to sell as face value or discount postage. It was listed with other discount postage lots, and NOT with the regular classic stamps lots we offered. These are very different from the actual Scott 241-245.
Somehow the bidder got mixed up with the Scott 241-245, and we actually requested the buyer to cancel the transaction, and the sale was cancelled.”
I have to give credit to the seller for answering questions.
I stumbled upon those stamps after a broad "US stamps" ending soon. Like those guys that bid a dollar, I thought maybe I could win the lottery. But that never happens, except for that friend of a friend of that guy from the bar.
What is a little shady, why weren't the Scott numbers included? If they were intended to be sold as face or discount postage, why not just price them at "buy it now" for $10, or "make an offer"?
There's $10 postage, if they sold for $15-20, would he have cancelled the sale?
As a retired small business owner, I learned early that reputation is worth far more than just a few dollars.
