JayI have been trying to stay away but let me make a few points:
1-Did the auction catalog contain the authenticity guaranty?
2-If yes to #1, why is it relevant that Mark bid by phone?
3-Although, as Steve states, this is a "unique" item, I assume that the guaranty clause does not have a caveat to exclude "unique" items
4-I agree with Corey; testing the paper can only prove the negative, but not authenticity
5-Question for Steve: If you accept the return will you attempt to return the lot to the original consignor and, if so, what recourse do you believe you have against him?
