<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 11542721, member: 5833"]Any feature that, if the seller had understood correctly, would have led them to set & insist on a higher price. Right now, when gold is being sold by the molecule, you would put a higher price on 18K than you would on the same piece in 14K, a higher price for coral than for conch shell, more for a signed piece than an unsigned one. "Better" as the market understands it, not taking into account any personal preferences of the buyer. I have occasionally paid silly money for a cameo because it meant something to me & my collection, but that is not something an authenticator could factor in.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
