Default 9 bids

I was surprised to see nine bids on that item. But what was really shocking was the ebay handle of one of the high bidders. One would think with a name like that he or she would have known better. If the bidding was indeed driven by the ivory (and I agree with Andrew that it was), then ignorant speculators might see a large number of faux pieces coming their way. This may not serve to reduce the level of ignorance but hopefully it will reduce the number of those willing to speculate.
Sincerely,
RobT
