[QUOTE="ZoidMeister, post: 4856157, member: 114169"]I think I may have posted these thoughts in the wrong thread, so I'll rectumfy that error. ***************** At the risk of pïssing off some esteemed members of CT, and from the sheer amount of [B]butthurt[/B] I am seeing surrounding the man and his work, I'm getting the feeling that [B]SOMEONE[/B] or multiple [B]SOMEONE'S[/B] bought one of Carr's fantasy coin creations without fully informing themselves of the history and attributes of said creation. If the esteemed member was deceived, it does not appear that the creator of the piece did the deceiving, and perhaps the purchaser was a bit too eager in the purchase. Blaming the creator of the piece is similar to blaming GM for the drunk who hit your car because he was driving a GM. It is incumbent upon all of us to know what we are purchasing and not get too excited about discovering a potential "hitherto unknown rarity" without doing some "due diligence." If any deceit was perpetrated, look to the secondary seller of said creation, not to the creator. Zoid out . . . .[/QUOTE]
