2 pointsAgreed. It was both stupid and greedy but I've seen rapists get smaller sentences.
-
2 pointsIt's difficult to be sympathetic as they both would have received at least a substantial 6 figure sum and possibly more. I don't understand what's wrong with rejecting a lot of money, particularly given the cost of fencing such a substantial quantity of illicit material would likely reduce the total proceeds to around half the value of the hoard - or about what they would have received anyway. Pure greed and stupidity, but I'm not sure in which order.

2 pointsSadly, just not wise enough to appreciate, or even care about, the implications of their actions. Greedy philistines like that can quite easily cause a knee jerk reaction; calling for the introduction of regulation and licensing. Would that be a bad thing, aside from the practicalities of implementation ? Bit like a fishing license, I suppose. Judging by the amount of finds popping up here there and everywhere, there must be quite a little flock to fleece.

1 pointThey will be getting something else very stiff soon no doubt

1 pointVery stiff sentences indeed - perhaps surprisingly so. Seen much much less given for arguably much worse crimes. They should have taken the honest, but still well rewarded route.

1 pointsuch a shame, they would have made a pretty penny anyway doing it legit, and to have your name on that hoard would be something special, bet there are some dealers shitting it now
-
1 pointI'd bet serious money there have been other major finds, left undeclared, that nobody else knows about except the finder - especially if working alone.
-
1 pointQuite right Paddy, free listings means that there's no downside for a seller listing worthless crap. However, on the flip side I reckon that many of our rarest finds would have remained unlisted if they charged fees.
