Ya really wana talk about Profit...I have bought alot of art in the past..quiet frankly there is more money left lying about in art than anything else..spoons for the most part have serial numbers and model numbers on them...so every one knows, Coins the same, Stamps, cars, silver..glass you name it's got a name on it...ART sometimes ya can't read the signature, it is so dirty that you can't see the picture, it has been on Grandmas wall and they hated it or they are just moving...

I have bought $10,000 paintings for $550 (Ray Austin Crooke) . or a $40,000 painting for $1100 (David Roberts RA)... a $4500 painting for $330 (Norman McLeish) or a $12000 painting for $2000 (Venard).

Then again I have seen a $10 Garage sale find turn into $8900..
