<p>[QUOTE="ritzyvintage, post: 3606805, member: 18191"]It is sometimes best not to mention certain things about an item when selling it on eBay. This not only allows a potential buyer room for ones own discovery & research, it can also give rise to opportunistic bidders in their hope of finding a true bargain! . I can also recall a time when any glass items listed as Uranium Glass, would be refused entry to certain countries and the item was then subsequently destroyed. It is rumoured that paYpal confiscated loads of Uranium glass and issued refunds to the sellers... I am sure that we have all seen or sometimes found & won items without any attribution in their listing at all, and as collectors ourselves we like to find such items and have a punt that it 'may' be Ivory for example or solid silver perhaps![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
