    Wonder if it will stop all those people varnishing a print to silver cases or stencil spraying 'Cadbury' to any small cabinet they can find.

    I wonder how much of their fakes will be floating around on the market.

    "Rare cornishware" in a search doesn't seem to turn up pieces worth more than $300. Their restitution must have been to a lot of people, or maybe some dealers? Maybe I'm just not finding it.

    Their fakes will find their way back into the market as the real deal at some point, only to be exposed. Meanwhile, they'll have tanked the market for rare Cornishware.
