As you say, they might cancel me. If they do, I'll see if I can embarrass them in some way, their choice.
They didn't reply to my message, thought that might be the case. I just hope that somebody with enough knowledge of these swords tells the buyer it's a fake and he takes it back to the auction house. At £600.00, he must believe it's genuine.
He has also been ripped off with the commission, it's 29.9%, this auction house is making big money and still seems to need to misrepresent items.
I've got seven swords, two I bought from a well established dealer, they are my best two and in good polish but not cheap. The others I bought at auctions, all need some work doing, from which I'm learning.
