Not today (slumping shoulders). Maybe Monday. For those of you who have used David Sear's service, what was your experience with the lag time? Do I need to email Mr. Sear?
OK, the documentation arrived this afternoon. So without further ado, David Sear says it is a 19th century cast fake. B U M M E R But it is what I suspected
*rats* ... sorry, big brother ... man, I feel awful for your unfortunate predicament!! Ummm, but ya gotta admit, the dude is fricken golden!! => hopefully, you're able to get your cash back? (Oprah is "not" happy!!)
Man, sorry to hear that! I wonder how Sear determined it was specifically a 19th century cast fake. Was any information detailed or otherwise included regarding how he arrived at his conclusion?
Perhaps, but when you add in the cost of David Sear's opinion, it's approaching the point of diminishing return.
Yikes Bing, You should have posted it to the board first if you were not sure. Good advice for all, right?
I did right after I received it and at that point I could have returned it, but it's been weeks since I got this and I just got the bad news from David Sear in yesterday's mail. Oh well. It's only money.
oh man, that's sucks. I didn't know, I was 50/50 on that one. was hoping it would be the other 50. well, it's somewhat cool that it's an old fake.
