The ol' AMOC Mailbag gets some pretty interesting "submissions", like:

Dear AMOC,______________________________________
On August 19, 2014, I decided to try a little experiment. I addressed the envelope above exactly as you see it here and sealed a brief message inside asking Dave to let me know if the letter ever reached him. Then I stuck an airmail stamp for £1.28 on it (the correct sum) and dropped it in the postbox.
My hope was that, even with such minimal information to work from, the Post Office in Kitchener would be determined enough to figure out the puzzle and deliver my letter correctly. Royal Mail lore, after all, is full of stories relating similar triumphs.
Five years on, with still no word from Dave, I guess it’s time to admit the experiment failed. I’m disappointed in you, postmen of Kitchener, I truly am.

So, this one caught my eye - simply because that's an outrageously high bid for a mid-grade counterfeit.
People's done gone crazy!
