I'm watching it, Rich. I sent the seller an email message about the piece. I told him if I was the high bidder I would like to see the piece before I paid for it to make sure it was as described. He or she lists his or her location as Connecticut. If the piece is as stated, I would pay cash. I wouldn't want to see that pieced shipped and have something happen to it, insured or not insured.

I hope I hear back soon. I leave for Block Island first thing in the morning and will not be by a computer when the auction is about to end.

Whatever is meant to be is meant to be. Time will tell...
