TAKE CARE

I was in an auction in England few days ago. I was shocked when I saw in real some pieces that in catalogue were looking excellent.

At least a fine kard and a pair of pistols were totally fakes!

All these pieces were sold high to telephone and internet bidders. I am sure these people will cry when they receive them. These items got not even one bid from the room. Some guys behind me were laughing when the telephone bidders were fighting on the kard.

I was thinking all these days if I have to write the name of the auction house. I decided not. Anyway it was a great lesson and I share this with you as such.
