<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lettow, post: 1618119, member: 6986&quot;]You already know how scarce genuine pieces are.&nbsp; If it were my note and I was willing to part with it Ebay would not be the place.&nbsp; One of the reasons that you probably got this note for the price you did is the fact that Ebay is rampant with copies of this type of material.&nbsp; As an example, all of the Grim Memories Malaya overprints that are currently listed (most from a seller in Pakistan) are fakes.</p><p><br /></p><p>I note you and only one other person bid on this item.&nbsp; I am not saying that this piece is fake.&nbsp; Since I have not seen it in person I could not make that conclusion.&nbsp; My point is that the Ebay prices for even genuine items is suppressed because of the fakes out there.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>If I were in your shoes and wanted to sell it, I would have someone like Joe Boling authenticate it and consign it to one of the auction houses (Lyn Knight, Heritage, etc.)&nbsp; I would then tell the interested buyer where he can bid on it.&nbsp; There are enough people out there who would want this note that I would expect it to go for more than he is offering.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
