It was not my intention to be rude and please don't consider my previous post to be offensive...

My appologise to Mr. Yarom and to all of you, but it seems that you all have missunderstood my previous thought. I've made only an observation and Mr Rick, I certainly haven't interferred with Mr. Yaroms personal business, wich besides isn't any personal but rather pubblic on a verry well known website. I'm also happy that I was his client many times in the past and I was always happy with the stuff I've got, 'cos he is one of the few honest dealers out there. Further I also consider him a great expert about oriental arms and I often think why he does not write a book wich would be verry appreciated among us, rather novice collectors. Certainly worth buying instead of some other expensive stuff with glossy paper, blurry photos and missleading descriptions from a "venerable" guru-connosieur.

I've made only an observation about the real value of taht blade, wich everyone here can make. Besides, to buy things you sell for a resonable price, with the intention of making profit, is exactly what traders do. Beeing a proffessional seller mayself, I'm certainly not considering that shamefull nor anybody should consider it shamefull. The item in questin was legally bought on an open auction and every single one of us could bid on it and Mr. yaroms shop is also open to all visitors. I'm not divulgating any top secret data here. Again, I just made an observation, that the sword is more valuable of that it was payed for, to alleviate Mr. Ariels ammusement. What's really wrong with that?

Having re-read my original comment and Artzi's reply, I am blushing.... I tried to be funny but it obviously came across as quite rude. I apologize.
We do have different tastes in arms and we all are entitled to our opinions ( I still do not like Qajar swords!) but there is no reason to be sarcastic and smart-alecky.
Once again, my apologies. I'll try to watch myself in the future.
