Dear Zhang, you have a typo, total 35 (not 39) rare 5c large dragon found this time:
China Scott 6: a block of 19, a block of 10 and a block of six.

I think it would be one of the most important find in the history of China philately.

You have a typo too. Mr. Zhang is a real sweetheart who does not know how to count 35 --- better called Dear Zhang instead of Deal Zhang. No deal for 39.

Dear Mr. Ruan:

TYPO error is not a big deal, but we should try to limit it. Thanks for your correction.
Since you are good at English, I would like you to take a look at the following several sentences I just made with the word of "dear" and let me know whether they are good or not:

The guy bought the rare dragon stamps cheaply and he will sell them dear.
Your Pagoda Anchorage cover with the dragon and the treaty port stamps is too dear for my budget.
You are a dear to help me with my China cover collecting.
You are one of my dear friends, and it is very easy to deal with you.
My dearest wish is to meet you and other Hua You Wang friends in China in 2015.

The title here "Rare China Dragon Stamps to be Sold on Apr Auction in Hong Kong " is not correct, it should be titled: "Rare China Dragon Stamps to be for sale on Apr Auction in Hong Kong", they are different meanings.

You are right, those rare stamps have not been put on the sale, once they are on the auction catalogue, then we can say they are to be sold. Is my explanation correct?

作者: hart 时间: 2015-3-1 10:21

Thank you， William.

I would like to talk about what I understand.

If we say something is to be sold in Auction, only in one situation, the seller is very, very keen to sell, then he dosn't set a reserve price on the auction or set a very low reserve, this means he has to sell it, and everyboday know that this item will be abosolutely sold out at this price. And then auctioneer will advise it in this way " this one must be sold!!!" to attract people, here "to be sold "is much more confirmed than "must be sold" because "the item "must be sold" maybe is not sold , but "to be sold " means it is going.

Usually we don't like to say " to be sold" before the thing is sold, we like to say it is for sale or it is on market, but" To be sold " is not incorrect.

Rare China Dragon Stamps to be Sold on Apr Auction in Hong Kong means:这些罕见的大龙票将在香港4月的拍卖上被卖掉。Rare China Dragon Stamps to be for sale on Apr Auction in Hong Kong means: 这些罕见的大龙票将于4月在香港拍卖。

William, I think you get me wrong.. I was saying you are potential and great buyer for this auction house..
The 5c Wide Margin Large Dragon stamps are so expensive that not any ordinary person could afford.

I understand now, thanks.

How about you? I think you should be the potential and great buyer for this auction house as well; moreover, you should be on the top of the distribution list.
