I recently purchased a used Palo French Polynesia album on eBay. The listing stated that the album contained "about 40 stamps". When I received it there were indeed about 40 stamps included. Thing is they were all attached to the album pages with loops of scotch tape. I had a bit of a time getting them out of the album without damaging the pages. Needless to say, the 40 stamps were consigned to the bin. The album looks okay though and that's what I was purchasing, so on balance I wasn't too distraught.

Did you contact the seller. Interesting that someone would purchase a Palo album (not cheap) then use tape. This does not sound consistent.
