| What has been your costliest mistake in this hobby? I bartered with a very well regarded local dealer. Made the mistake of thinking we were friends. Traded a very large, very expensive oriental rug without agreeing on what I was to receive in exchange - we agreed that he would have rug valued. T... | |
