<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lucille.b, post: 41025, member: 51&quot;]Thanks for the additional comments.&nbsp; At the moment I&#039;ve put it all a bit on hold.</p><p><br /></p><p>Funny about human nature...&nbsp; the spot of transfer wear on the birds back or the compromised handle doesn&#039;t bother me at all, but this navy blue marker stain does.&nbsp; It would be better if I didn&#039;t know where that came from.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not losing sleep over it, but this is how my mind works.&nbsp; I look at the piece and I sort of fleetingly see the bird in the reeds, but realize I&#039;m thinking about the marker stain.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess I&#039;m harboring some slight irritation that the estate runner person made such a goof.&nbsp; Well, nobody is perfect, but I did send a note via the Craigslist ad (saying I did not want to return the piece, but just a head&#039;s up) and no response.</p><p><br /></p><p>Small lesson learned.&nbsp; At least this was on a piece that was not in perfect shape, in the future for estate sales that use these pens I will take into a count that they sometimes stain, depending on the surface.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
