Some day we got to grab dinner and drinks Jeff when I'm NYC, not only would it be good to catch up...but I got to hear this dog story sounds like a classic.

I swear these AH's should be accompanied by 80’s TV laugh tracks and groans….

”This week on an all new That’s My Auction House, Skipper gets into big trouble as he enters bids he can’t pay for! Don’t miss this one it’s sure to be hoot. Right after an all new Alf”

John, for sure. I'm also going to send over an email with some funny stuff about Leland's. Did you ever hear about the infamous letter sent out by a former Leland's employee which laid out in tremendous detail some of the fraud committed by Josh and his gang?

No but that would be a good read. Thanks Jeff, I feel bad now I didn't get you anything for the Holidays.

Can't trust disgruntled former employees, you know that.

Why did the dog and Josh have a falling out?

Restoration of collectable US currency is also acceptable. The grading service gives a short description of the repair and uses the word Apparent under the condition grade. Opening bid on the $5 is $600 and the $10 is $2400.

What if one of those bills had "Apparent: 1/4 of this bill was torn off; replaced"?

A funny thing is even if the extensive restoration of the poster was disclosed, you think it would still get lots of bids as it's clearly a nice looking item.

Josh, this is it? No before pictures, no link to GCC's website for before and after?

To say the work is virtually undetectable is a stretch also come on man, what gives? Why does everything have to be so freaking difficult?

It’s really simple this is a heavily damaged genuine G20 banner that has been professionally restored by one of the best restoration companies in the world to look as original as possible.

It serves a great value to the collector as it looks NRMT and can be had for a fraction of the price when compared to an unrestored NRMT copy. Which may not be found as the nicest examples are currently tied up in private collections. So with only 6-7 of these around this may be your one chance etc.

It is what it is why not let it sell as such, why walk a fine line of just enough info?
