Cough. Seller is a member here. Let's not be too judgemental; they'll either sell or they won't.

Oook!

I would just like to state that this isn't me.

Please note that, although from Israel, this is not the Librarian's Apprentice. I wouldn't dream of charging several times over for stamps that are currently available from the Emporium*. This is someone who has probably seen my listings, and my shipping price, and decided to copy me.

* Making no promises about retired stamps.

I have paid stupid money for stamps, but never this stupid. Hopefully at that price the buyer appreciates what they've got.

Oook!

This actually seems a decent price for 4 unopened LBEs - I just can't imagine getting LBEs and then NOT OPENING THEM :shock:

AND They are both listing the Deaths Study Jigsaw and are using the SAME PHOTO for that !!

It does seem strange, are they the same person ? Is there just the one copy of each item or two ?
