hi, well i send it back to the auction house with a cover note stateing my feelings about the age of the item. they rang back saying they would send it to leeds armoury for dating, and I know that over 8 week have pasted and they have done nothing about it.
I plan to contact them again next week and set a dead line to deal with this all get a full refund on the item.
so the stories not over yet.
I know that a much larger auction house in london had an arms and armour auction this month, and a few so say 1st empire items did not sale on the day, and you know it, reproductions of the very same items can be got off the internet.
