<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 8092845, member: 110350&quot;]I strongly disagree. If you&#039;re reckless and you consciously disregard a known risk that the coins or artifacts you&#039;re buying are stolen and/or smuggled goods -- as when you&#039;re paying half a million in cash to a shady dealer for a completely un-provenanced item, but close your eyes to the obviously problematic nature of the transaction -- then of course you can still be held legally responsible, and it&#039;s way more than just a moral issue. Which is one of the reasons why I, like [USER=128351]@GinoLR[/USER], dispute your assertion that as a general proposition a buyer &quot;should not be held accountable for the origins of items purchased through dealers or auction houses.&quot; That simply doesn&#039;t hold water as a generalization, whether you think that should be the case or not. The only correct response to the question is &quot;it depends on the circumstances.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
