Postage Stamp Chat Board & Stamp Bulletin Board Forum
 

A lot of Ebay sellers are quite proficient in their listings, supplying good descriptions, pictures and catalog numbers, however there always seem to be a clueless few who just can't be bothered putting in the effort.

Here's one from Ebay seller BOB.HECKMAN, who either didn't have his glasses on or who had someone else's on. Somehow he managed to supply a better picture of his CAMERA than he did of the stamp (maybe he took the photograph from OUTSIDE a stamp shop window or his own house ?

Also he supplied only a SCOTT number for an Australian stamp, and a full description of 'nice, clean stamp with no faults' - Really ? I'll have to take his word on that.

$16.00 .... What a bargain.

The centering looks a bit off, but at $16 surely it's worth a bid.

Nice colour.

If he included a line in his description such as "what you see in the photo is what you get", you could buy the stamp then file a dispute saying you didn't get the camera shown in the picture.

I assume the coffee cup stains are the valuable part of the collection ?

I'm sure the spilt coffee improves the smell of the valuable collection.

I assume South Africa, due to the Afrikaans on the cover? If it was South Australia, it might be worth a grab!!

Indeed - and they will all be singles for sure
