Thread: If you had to do it all over again — would you still have gotten an Escher?

I own 20 including slurry stones probably, some of my favorites.

Ouch! If it helps any, being duped/separated from your money somehow is part of the process. I'm sure I've spent close to a grand on the silly 'global shipping program' alone. And all I get from that is extended delivery times, and a box that is usually 10 times bigger than whatever is inside it! lol. And then there are the razors that have been beautifully photographed but mediocre at best in the hand, and the vintage hones which have been described as 'finishers/great condition' which in reality were just normal or had a crack or line going through them.

But a boxed/labelled Escher is a boxed/labelled Escher. There's nothing to argue about there. And a boxed and labelled 5x2.5 went yesterday on the bay for $270. (I bid $265, lol).
