I was cruising eBay's US stamp sold listings the other day and spotted this auction. Basically a seller from France listing a collection of stamps with some decent early US stamps, some with condition problems, but there were a series of potential $1,000++ stamps. But there was this one picture that had something unusual in it. (see image). Given that this is eBay and no-one in their right mind would list something that valuable in a collection, I've got to assume the seller placed it there and it is a modern repro. Just the act of doing that though would invalidate the whole auction for me, so I don't know why the bid went so high
So did the buyer get taken? I don't know, there were supposedly a 100 more pictures, so maybe they were not bidding up the auction based on a possible inverted jenny...
