Was the stamp out of view of the bidders at any time?

Is the inspector a fraud?
Whaaaa?

Is the stamp in some sort of case?
Did anyone besides the expert closely inspect the stamp before Brutus?

Did Brutus ask to inspect the stamp right after he got the stamp?

Is the difference between the Z grill and the F grill something that only someone who studies stamps would know?
Whaaaa?

Probably getting a bit ahead, but

Did the culprit stealthily attach it to an envelope?

This looks fun.

Did PJ switch the stamps after the bidders examined the real stamp?

So we've covered PJ and etherton... let's get everyone out of the way.

Did the stamp specialist switch the stamp?

Did Brutus?

Was the stamp ever a Z grill?

Was the stamp in the room when everyone was frisked?

Did multiple people commit a crime? Were any of the people who committed a crime motivated by malice? Financial gain?

On a scale of 1-10 how hot would you say PJ is?

Ok... let's try again.

Was the stamp actually a Z grill and it was never missing?

Was this all a ploy by a bidder to get the real stamp at a lower price?

If it is, it's a small, insubstantial one.
Yes all the bidders did I imagine.

It says he asked to inspect it again after the price rose so I assume he inspected it once before when it was passed to him.

Yes.

was the stamp hidden inside a book somewhere in the library for the culprit to collect later?

edit:

Did the owner of the stamp switch them inorder to sell off the cheaper one for the price of the higher one and keep the valued one? and since brutus foiled the plan he wants to frame him for theft?

I know this is similar (almost the same?) but I want to verify.

The entire scene takes place in the library? That is, the only person to leave the room before the police frisked everybody was the security guard? Is brutus the perp? Is he the only perp? Is he working with the security guard? Perhaps instead the expert?


Did brutus leave the stamp inside a book to pick up upon later return? Is there anything else in the library of relevance besides books, a magnifying glass..... and I guess a table? or is it irrelevant?

Thank for doing this! This is interesting.

Was there, at any point in time, a moment when Brutus had the stamp all to himself, and nobody was watching?

Did the stamp leave with the security guard? (ie. without the security guard knowing) Was the stamp already gone before the security guard left?

Does the magnifying glass have anything to do with the solution?

Is insurance coverage relevant to the solution?

Was the switch made before the price hit 1 million?

Did someone unknowingly remove the stamp from the room?

Did Brutus commit a crime?


I don't think he can hide it in a book if the stamp is not in the room by the time the frisking takes place...

Did Brutus attach the stamp to the security guard?

Was the stamp still a Z grill when Brutus asked to inspect it?

Did Brutus forge anything?

Were there more than 2 stamps involved?

Nope.

True

True
Is brutus the perp? Is he the only perp?
Yes
Is he working with the security guard? Perhaps instead the expert?
No

No

Yes there is.

Yes

The answer to the first question is no. The answer to this question alone is yes. The way you place it and word it is misleading though. Rephrase if you want a clearer answer.

Does the magnifying glass have anything to do with the solution?
No

Is insurance coverage relevant to the solution?
No

Was the switch made before the price hit 1 million?
Yes.

Did someone unknowingly remove the stamp from the room?
No.

Did Brutus commit a crime?
Yes.

Did Brutus attach the stamp to the security guard?
No

Was the stamp still a Z grill when Brutus asked to inspect it?
No

Did Brutus forge anything?
Yes

Were there more than 2 stamps involved?
Yes.

If you get confused, remember as Day[9] always says, good plans have a beginning a middle and an end.

Did Brutus try to hide the stamp on his tongue to smuggle it out?

Does everyone inspect the stamp in public, or do they do it in private?
