"I had ACOA give a quick opinion on 3 signed photos that interested me (Monday's sale): Tom Cruise/Nicole Kidman, Sean Connery and Timothy Dalton. All 3 failed.
I didn't bid.
They had a great, vintage photo of Charlie Chaplin with a…"
"Well, good to know Richard is going strong. I honestly always had good dealings with him when he was based in the U.K. and ran a straight purchase dealership. "
"Hi Eddy, Richard was at the rostrum yesterday so he must still be pretty heavily involed in IAA Europe. He'll be back on again today if you want to take a look. "
"Hi eva - Very interesting. Doesn't exactly instill confidence!"
"Etienne, I had an auction reminder yesterday which at least partly confirms what you said about Richard Davie's involvement at IAA Europe. He is not referred in the the mail and is not listed as one of the "Personnel" or…"
"Well done on presenting these Hepburn signatures, eva!"

"I totally agree with Karsten. A great proportion of the authographs IAA sell are probably genuine, particularly the historical ones, but you cannot place any reliance on the auctioneer's quality control procedures. You won't get a complete…"
"First of all, I don't know these people or the shop. I just looked at the many autographs here by Elvis Presley. Well, my humble opinion is that almost all Elvis autographs are not real. I wouldn't buy or even want any of these. BUT: That…"
"I think Richard, the owner/manager, is much more experienced in historical autographs. I bought a couple of dud Beatles items that he had given a blessing to when they were autioned at Trever Vennett-Smith back in around 2000 and I don't think…"
