  1. Good luck mate, hope you get this satisfactorily resolved whether verified as genuine or refunded.
  2. Does that mean I don't have to spend the weekend looking at it every 5 minutes?
  3. I'd have been very happy with it for £8. Think I went to £14 before throwing the towel in.
  4. I was the first bidder because I thought it was a decent example and cheap. Now it's not cheap and I'm out.
  5. I might have a bid on that 1964 error.
  6. The one I really wanted was way over my limit at the lowest estimate. Tough to bid again. <sob>
  7. Neil's ever so friendly. Keeps emailing me. Outbid again, this time on the one I really wanted.
  8. Ah, so it was the 5 berries bit that wasn't attributed, not the mule? Just shows there are bargains to be had out there. One day I might get one.
  9. Which lot Colin? 'tweren't me, is all I can say.
  10. Is that something you can elaborate on VS? I would appreciate any help in spotting fakes, although it's unlikely I'll ever have enough spare cash for the 1934. I've had a look at the photos on the other forum too, and whilst I can't pretend I really know what I'm looking at, I note two areas that might be a sign of casting. The crack above the E and the slightly grainy edge as per these pictures - am I on the right track?
  11. Their website is currently down. One would hope it's crashed under the volume of complaints.
  12. What do you think they'll do if there are no "elite" members and no-one's using them any more? I can't for the life of me see what they're trying to achieve.
  13. You've probably got most of them anyway. I had great difficulty narrowing it down to about 8.
  14. Just don't buy it in the first place eh?
  15. I really like the 1797 pattern. Not enough to spring 1k plus for it though. I keep getting outbid notices.
  16. I got an email from Neil yesterday morning as he was aware (somehow) that not all of the bids I'd tried to place had been registered. They're both showing now.
  17. Well I had to raise my sights as the 1967 didn't appear for sale.
  18. I don't like the waiting. I've got to sit here for a week hoping that Pete doesn't want what I want.
  19. I did wonder if you had anything to do with that Nordle.
  20. I just use Paint to resize them, or you could post a link to them maybe? I'd like to have a look.
  21. Which auction? That was my one chance of owning a Copthorne.
  22. So mine is first bust with incuse dot? Is that still P1398?
  23. Just one of your nice magnification links will do please.
  24. What's happened to my 1967? Pete you said I could have it.
