Degraded stamps

Just a technical note here: I have noticed a few bills that are rubber stamped where the ink has been washed out and/or ran. This could be because of water based inks, but whatever the cause, it is making the site address unreadable. The other bill I saw recently was a laser-printed one where the laser imprint was actually falling off in little chunks. I was trying to save these bills to scan them but my wife needed groceries- and to the owners: sorry, I didn't get to enter them either…

i dont know if it was one of mine but i have noticed on the uncirculated 2002 fives that the stamp on the back seems to fade a bit. I stamp on the top left corner right beside the big white 5 and it seems to me that the stamp ink doesn't want to take too good. anybody else notice this with the new 5s?
