Hi Guys
I think the seller must either be delusional,totally gullable or just down right full of roo dung or maybe this really what he sees when he looks his keris
They are almost identical you know

I will be emailing a link to the seller so dave I think he had better get his check book ready I know a few good charities he can send the money to

Btw Dave you must be the person who he is talking about in this emal.
For some inexplicable reason the posting of this auction seems to have attracted a stream of comments which would be laughable if they weren't so pathetic. (I'm guessing that you are either a colleague or perhaps the same person as some imbecile who keeps telling me that this 40+ year old authenticated keris is a fake, but who when challenged to put his money where his mouth is died like a pricked balloon). You have my permission to post a picture of this item wherever you wish. In the meantime, a local collector who DOES know what he is talking about is close to consummating purchase of this excellent item.
