<p>[QUOTE=&quot;komokwa, post: 9873635, member: 301&quot;]I had several gold and silver jewelry items from a not so famous , but well known late master artist.</p><p>The grand daughter found some on my web site....and contacted me.</p><p>I was so touched that I sent her a 10K gold cast stick pin from her grandfathers work , free of charge !<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Then her mother got in the mix and I showed her every piece I had..... at prices 25 to 35% off retail.</p><p><br /></p><p>What followed were promises to purchase what they could afford........... months &amp; long periods of no contact...... more promises.....promises of the family pooling together the funds to take all my items..... delays that included family illness ... family deaths from being shot....... more months of no contact..... promises of her boyfriend purchasing items for her birthday....... more long delays where I reached out , to no response .......and finally after more than 2 plus years of this ... shenanigans ........ I was totally fed up. </p><p><br /></p><p>What got me the most.....all the contact from them included ..thanks for the grand daughters&nbsp; gift...what a great soul I had.....how wonderful that I still had the artists work, which they had so little of &amp; was offering all of it to them, while taking it down off my site..., ... the G-d Bless you, the Jesus loves me ....ect ect...!</p><p><br /></p><p>Years later when I put some of it up for auction......... I let the daughter know ... and never heard back from her !!</p><p><br /></p><p>OK, so not photo&#039;s or docs or war medals............ but I went out of my way.... over &amp; above , to help this artists family acquire&nbsp; .....pieces that they didn&#039;t even know existed . </p><p>One...all.... there was no pressure to purchase ..... they were the ones telling me how they would take all they could !!!</p><p><br /></p><p>So......not every time one tries to reunite a family with items of a departed loved one ..... does it work out !!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie19" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
