American Eagle Fat Barrel

Ron,

I agree--and please note that I did qualify my suspicious fightin' words with a "may be". Of course, we don't/can't know all the facts, such as whether the online seller was the buyer at the auction, "if" the buyer-then-seller even read the auction description , "if" he simply forgot to include the info. in his listing, and "if" the seller even knew the difference to begin with. I confess it's sometimes easy to cast aspersions at a situation that seems questionable or fishy, particularly when enough info is released to inspire a jumped-to conclusion, but not enough to establish the actuality of a situation.

Since I don't swim in the waters of the elevated collectibles, I have no horse in these races; rather, I'm outside the track, in the parking lot! I heed your advice about heeding Andre's warning and moving on, no problem...
