So you don't want me to criticise specific pieces of Artemission's
stock and you can't name a single verifiable profesisonal entity who
will vouch for Artemission's reputation? There's a surprise....
As said before, the crook does sell genuine items as well so its no
great surprise that either Christies or Bonhams would authenticate
something from him, but would either of them recommend him as a
reliable dealer? If so, please be specific and tell... its easy to
verify. But you won't because you can't.
As for this being some sort of way to undermine competition... how
come I don't rant about other dealers? And why don't other dealers
step forward and say I'm wrong?
I sincerely hope you're forwarding these messages to Karawani so he
can respond.... but he won't because he can't defend himself.
Keep digging the hole Daniel, I'm a busy guy but I've always got time
to slate a fraud/crook/creep who is stealing money from collectors.
If anyone thinks Daniel is right and I'm wrong please feel free to
contribute to the discussion. Let's discuss a few pieces of
Artemission's stock so we can be specific - this is all far too wishy-
washy which is just the way Karawani likes to keep it.
