and more
I didn't have to go to the trouble of copying and printing original labels as I'd just take them off the back of the frame in auction houses as I assume Modernesia has done, either way it leads to provenance and it is called theft/fraud/deception.
I was caught by the wife of a very prominent artist 2 years after I'd originally sold it at an auction....2 years and thousands of miles where I was residing....My point is Modernesia it will bite you in the ass it's just a matter of when cause it's seriously hangin' out!

risk versus reward
yetodecide,
I know this type of action to be "risk versus reward". This dealers reward is low* and his risk is even lower.
My father always told me "do not tell people what you are going to do, just do it". This forum seems to be full of the former and lacking in the latter. Idle threats and warnings are just that, meaningless.
* by my standards of wealth accumulation

niceguy your point is noted BUT not having a criminal mind you may not understand the word 'Paranoia'....if anything else it doesn't come any worse than this.
1100 hits and 140+ replys will instil enough of it

and more...sorry
what you may also need to take into consideration, given your comment about little reward is that we only know of what Modernesia has done....Do you believe this is all he does?
Ask me if what I was convicted of was my first and only time of Art Forgery.

I suppose it has but it...
I suppose it has but it needed to.
Apart from my love of this forun and my other love of 60's Furniture I'm paid rather handsomely to upset people like Modernesia until hard evidence is obtained...until then it's open slather!

Each fork in the road offers a choice.
And requires a decision.

WWMD = what would modernesia do?
Lets see if Modernesia will purchase these and put his newly reproduced labels on them and try to pass them off as authentic.

eBay - Always ask plenty of questions if Unsure!
Hi everyone
If you are unsure of anything or something just doesn't ring true, then always ask questions regardless of just how silly you think they are. In my mind, the only silly questions are the ones that aren't asked. We have run a successful eBay business now for quite some time in addition to our own site and we always welcome questions from any prospective clients. Knowledge is power so please don't hold back and ask if unsure of whoever you are dealing with or the items they are selling.
Regards
Dean

What a sad little ponce...
I've not received any restrictions on my buying or selling privileges. I've messaged him about this. Sure I'll hear nothing back.
