I sold an item on eBay for £167 (precious metals), and used RM 48 Tracked with £150 compensation. It was marked as delivered and photos taken. Sadly, the buyer said that the item had been stolen out of the bag and uploaded photos showing that the bag was ripped. I checked the RM photos and where the bag was ripped, the postman’s fingers were covering that section of the bag😡 Ebay told the buyer to open an “item not received claim” and after “investigating” refunded the buyer🤔 Did the postman’s fingers were steal it, or did the buyer? I put in a Claim at RM and this is their response: On reviewing your Claim, I am sorry that I cannot offer you compensation for the item due to the service that has been used to send to send a valuable item. Claims for items containing cash, tickets, vouchers/gift cards, jewellery or precious metals are not covered if sent by any other service therefore I am unable to meet your claim for compensation. I appreciate this is not the outcome you were looking for and I hope my explanation has set out why this decision has been taken. However, if you are unhappy with my response you can contact the Escalated Customer Resolution team. …. I’m onto the phone to RM now, while watching your vid! It’s an approx 20 minutes wait.

Thank you Walter always very interesting and informative.

You have great knowledge in finding such interesting things! Love the Murano lamp shade!

Hi Walter great sales, as usual , regards

I'm a new subscriber to your videos and they are excellent. Thank you for all the interesting content. I've not long started my own small (just me) online business on etsy,but I'd really like to learn how to design and sell on a website...yours is very smart! I love vintage glass and vintage costume jewellery but I'd like to learn so much more though. I'm definitely going to check out your tutorial on paintings and art....amongst others! So glad I found your yt channel! Regards,Ruth (UK)

The QDG’s are the Welsh Tank Regiment… Good Lads 🍺👍🏻

The pegasus charger is awesome! Nice find.

Very enjoyable and unique antique pieces.

I know this might be useless information, but you were talking about Georgian items from the 1800's in the 18th century. Wouldn't that be the 19th century? No big deal, but just wondering.

Absolute quality pal

Thanks for this. I have a S24 which is pretty good quality but always nice to have a item for even better quality and clearer images. Will prob be purchasing one in the not too distant future. Hope your well and had a good Christmas & New Year. Malc

Great Review thank you for posting.

I bought a Victorian miniature perfume silver vial with the perfume still inside off you down resolve market on Saturday I thought I recognized you from somewhere as I saw one of your videos a week before that.

you should have used cleaning vinegar

I watch a lot of KZbin resellers , this guy is by far the most knowledgeable in his field of KZbinrs resellers, but why are your views not as high as the others.

Hi Walter, I just wanted to say hello, I've been a follower of yours for a while. I have been into antiques all of my life as a collector and a re seller, I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your videos and find them really inspiring. I sell on eBay at the moment and it's growing quite well as long as I keep on top of it, my son has built me a website which I will gradually put my better items & personal collection onto, all of this is down to your inspiration so please keep doing what you're doing I always look forward to your new videos 👍 if I see you in Resolven i will pop over to say hello & grab a selfie with you if that's ok Kindest regards Phil Paterson From Llanelli

Lol - I had to go see the Japanese erotica - can't see much so would of been fine on here 😮

Fantastic finds, thank you for sharing

Very good quality items enjoyed video.

I have not tried it myself but could you use a barcode scanner to look at the barcodes on the whisky to determine at least the year sold?

Excellent. Thanks. This has been VERY helpful.

Thanks for enhancing our knowledge of glass

Many people on here slagging off Royal Mail Just give over I’ve worked hard as a postman for 37 years yes there are problems but this is down to poor investment in recruitment by the management it’s a hard job but there are a small number of staff doing the things you are talking about We are still the best out there Good luck if you think the other slipshod couriers can do any better

Welcome to the Temu silver 925.😀😀😀

US$35 on Amazon for a 3.4 fl oz or 100 ml bottle

Love the blue bowl very nice❤

Happy new year Walter, on the shell serial number the last two characters look like Russian Cyrillic alphabet for P and V, they also use No as shorthand for ‘number’ so could be old soviet?

check the inserts on first 2 pages, they are from the private library it was from, you might be able to identify which stately home or person of note it came from

Thanks for posting these videos. Was wondering if you could do a video with the following or just send me thoughts. What would be a price to pay for an item for example cut glass, without doing any research on the spot. Then when I get home I can do more research. Hope you can help

The copper vase was amazing. Thank you for sharing your finds!

At least this guy is honest about the number of coats needed to cover bare metal. I have worked in the silverware industry for 40 years and having tried this, can confirm that it is a waste of money. It does not give the level of shine you should expect and if you do try to polish it, you are soon back to square one.

We just got a chargeback for $9000. Customer claims the gold shot he received was fake. It came from an extremely well known gold refiner called Dillon Gage.

Lovely items.

Great video, Walter! I hope you and your family had a lovely festive period. - Absolutely adore the rocking chair, so quirky! I know my daughter would love it, I just don't have the space. All the best!

What if a counterfeiter comes up with the brilliant idea of striking a fake sovereign on 9ca gold?

You're daughter's not going to want you to part with the Horse. 😊 You might need to wait a good while to sell it.

Nice video mate, plenty of interesting pieces I've not seen before. Absolute joke what that charity shop did, imagine a dealer doing that? It amazes me how greedy some charity shops can be.

It could also be a conversion error on PayPal's end, where some currencies are wrongly calculated to be worth way more than they should, and maybe you got some currency on your PayPal account that has been effected by that. It'll change soon, but it happen to me. My 100usd was somehow worth 1000usd instead in my currency, and the two payouts i did got me the 1000usd instead

Some great finds as usual. The optic vase at 16 minutes isn't Whitefriars. It's got too many ribs and is the wrong shape. It's actually more likely to be Scandinavian in origin, 1930s to 1960s. It's very hard to identify many of these optic vases as several factories made them. Your epergne could be as late as 1920s. Another glass expert (Love Decanters) has found adverts for these designs in 1920s publications. You're dead right on the glass hand. They're never ever Murano.

Don't forget the specific gravity test. It's the ultimate test and never lies.

Hi, can you tell me what the marks # mean?

I think the weight test alone indicates a fake or genuine coin

Hello & Greetings from Down Under 🦘 Really enjoyed your video, your efforts and time, was greatly appreciated. I couldn't agree with you more Sir, 100% Correct, we should never destroy our history, good or bad, a world without history, is a world not worth living in, a world containing nothing, is a world that hasn't existed, so how can we be here. History is our link to survival, a place that teaches us in many ways, sometimes we learn, yet most times we don't unfortunately..

It's a bad practice to play the "I bought it for " game. Your time is worth a considerable amount and you can't just count your winners. My minimum income target is $500 a day. So making $125 pounds is not even worth mentioning.

Old coins have additional value that may doiuble or triple the price of the gold in them. What if the gold is genuine, but the mint is faked? How can you tell that?

Thank you for sharing your lovely finds .Hope you have a wonderful Christmas🎄

the jade is probably nephrite
