I had an instance where I bought 2 glass items from a seller, and it was apparent that the "artist signatures" had been added recently (the artist died 4 years ago !). As I asked around the enthusiast community it became crystal-clear that this behaviour was on-going from the seller, and I became aware of two other cases where colleagues had sold un-signed pieces to this person, only to find them advertised on eBay soon after with forged signatures on the base.As might be expected, I gave adverse feedback to the seller, and was shocked when I received a blow-back from him with some appalling lies trying to justify his behaviour (and denying the well-proven forgeries). I am now left with no way of responding further, and the seller continues as an EBay marketer.
