Internet Fraud
By Renaissance Le Corbeau

I often have a look at what is for sale on eBay, and although I am but
a novice who learned the basics (I hope at least this) from my late
father, I often come across fakes of all kinds.  The latest seems to be
a whole stock of fake gramophones from the far east, so all be warned
before you buy anything.  'Rare' examples of 2-horned gramophones are
for sale and when checking further you will find 3-4 of them all
labelled differently (different maker), but when you look at the
overall object they are identical (decorations on horns, handles,
knobs).
