My point is: if the poster knew about this auction prior to ending and wasn't sure about the item's authenticity, this forum could have been a good environment for discussion. It works when an item is good, too! A few days ago--deathly afraid of outing an auction--I posted about an eBay sighting of a Joseph Hall cabinet card on this forum's auction section of the buy/sell. One person commented. Five days later--after the auction was ended prematurely--a wonderful discussion about the card commenced on the board. This could have happened while the auction was live and maybe, just maybe, the seller might have let things run their course rather than panicking after dozens of e-mails from potential suitors.
