SBS badge - bargain or fake?
Given that Bosley's sold an attributed one of these for £9,000 - I'm assuming that someone either got a real bargain or paid a lot for a fake!

Looks chemically aged with an un associated box, so probably fake.

Loads of c**p in that auction. Many lots very similar to other provincial auction houses so I assume all coming from the same source.
Stay Alert! |

SBS
Many of the items in here have been floating around auction houses and occasionally ebay for at least 2 to 3 years and not selling or being withrdrawn after folks on here call them to let them know......there are mainly two sources for this i think and all to be avoided.

I feel deeply sorry for the buyer - but they need to do their homework - it is not an easy apprenticeship as we know:
