Several years ago, i was approached and I think other members about a guy who had a collection for sale from Argentina. I have no idea if it is true or not, it just seemed too much like a scam.

There are folks who go to Argentina for biz, would be interesting if they could 'visit' the collection.

I know a fellow collector who started his collection from a tip from me. I had received a PM to me on the forum from a guy in Israel. Would only sell the entire collection, I could not afford it, but my friend eventually worked a deal with him and bought it, went through the importation to europe and still has the collection.

To the USA would require complete importation. A piece or two a year can be acquired through much paperwork without the item being import marked.
