The eBay stamp vendor known as archiguy has listed a rare misprinted Russian stamp, unlisted in any catalog, on eBay for the price of $11,990. (See the page here.)
But further down the page, the seller mentions that he will accept other stamps in trade.
This is quite rare on eBay, and even rarer considering that most of the seller’s other current auctions are Russian and Eastern European stamps that are much more affordable (ranging from $20 - $200 or so, with some nice error pieces included).
Archiguy has a positive feedback rating of 2403. He can send you a large closeup scan of the stamp by email. (You may have to register through eBay first, we’re not sure, but it’s free and fast and would be worth it to get a large picture of this stamp, which in our opinion would look cool as a desktop background!).
If this trend continues, eBay could branch out into a service handling not only traditional cash transactions, but bartering between collectors.

Have you ever traded, rather than bought/sold, something on eBay?
