Title: Badly ID'd weight
Post by: tropdevin on November 01, 2008, 04:12:09 PM

The seller of this item  (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?type=2&campid=5335820906&toolid=10001&customid=&ext=280281693828&item=280281693828) says Bonhams told him it was a Clichy worth £400 - £600.  I reckon it is a Perthshire....

WOW, my eyes popped out! That must be the deal of the century -- to sell a rather uneventful Perthshire for £350!!!!!! I feel like contacting the buyer and telling them to cancel the purchase!

I wonder if the seller asked Bonham's what a Clichy would be worth.
