[QUOTE="Ignoramus Maximus, post: 5664479, member: 104741"]Please don't get me started on DHL...:( The plate I mentioned in my previous post was left outside on my front porch in -28C. by DHL without even bothering to knock, ring or any other notification of delivery. When I accidentally noticed it an hour later it was, of course, frozen stiff. As it thawed the condensation droplets literally dripped onto the table. Premium way to handle antiques and at 100 Euro plus in shipping a bargain. Right? I've asked sellers that they use another shipper as well, but have yet to meet one willing to do so. But I like to end on a positive note. So here we go. I got this one in the mail a few days ago: a fine portrait of Tyche at bottom-feeding price. Delicately lobotomized but proud, I don't think this lady would look out of place in Hieronymus Bosch's purgatory or hell. And, yes Norway is a great place to be. The skies at dawn and dusk when it's really cold...Breathtaking! [ATTACH=full]1242477[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
