I do think all the facts about high value big boys toys are not clear, a lot are stolen to order or for a particular buyer such as high value Ferraris and Lamborghinis, locked up in containers and shipped to countries who do not take an interest in provenance and ownership. The same goes for high value guns and of course paintings not all are sold at rock bottom prices otherwise the risk and return would not equate. I know of three individuals who have had London guns go missing while being transported and one pair some 20 years ago now, they have never surfaced. Where theres a want and money there is a market, as for the rest we will have to agree to differ.


The only lessons in my life I truly did learn from where the ones I paid for!
