    cool! the bloke i was talking to said chinese and japanese stuff seems to be the in thing at the moment

    just like the ebay link posted by dragonflywink its slightly different to the ones i have ... the feet and legs are a tad different , it has a split tongue and the shell is thinner but the rest is pretty much the same ... the one in the ebay link the feet and legs ae totally different and the dragon is slightly different but no doubt all are made by the same person or people

    oh well contacted that auctioneers via email with pictures and the 2 links posted with one for sale on ebay and the one sold at an auction and got told they are of no value and not worth them selling , quite a snotty reply to be honest ... think i might actually give ebay a go got a £1 seller fee deal that ends today so will be a chancer and start them at £299 for the pair just to see ( they are obviously made by the same people as whats posted in this thread ) i doubt i will get any takers at that price but got nowt to lose eh!!

    It's always good to be SURE before offering for sale anywhere. Silverplate items are often based on a silver-colored alloy, such as "white brass", so even a silver-appearing break can be misleading.
    As others have already said, they are cool pieces, in any case, and could sell well if they find the right buyer on the right day!
