<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gregsglass, post: 307490, member: 78&quot;]Hi,</p><p>&nbsp; That tag reminded me of a very funny story. I had a cousin in law who was a real PITA. She was always asking how much that was worth and how much did I pay for that. I finally put&nbsp; two old Sotheby&#039;s auction stickers on two &quot;newer&quot; Chinese vases I had. I put the amount of 25 thousand dollars on the one bottom and 43 thousand on the other. Next time she was over and started asking prices again, I just said the the two vases have the prices on check them out. I do not remember what I paid for them as it came as they came in the last lot I bought. She turned one over and got very excited but tried to not show it. Then she turned the other over and damn near fainted.</p><p>I told the rest of the family that they were only worth 20 bucks apiece. When it was time for my estate to be divided up, let her choose those two vases and no others. Sorry to say about after 15 years she passed away. I never got to see her face when she found out they were trash.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/eek.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" /></p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
