Check the provenance. Everyone is related to, or knows someone or met someone famous. Most people don't want the piece because they are fans, but for resale value. I'm a fan of a lot of artist, but I don't want their stuff. They can have mine though.

This was a fun and creative story. It made me smile. Your last line could be taken a few ways, but I'm not sure which I would like best. :) Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I enjoyed reading your story. It was interesting and well written. You surprised me in the end. I don't think Jiminy Hendrix would sing the Star Spangled Banner. Very good job.

Hi John, a fun story. I was wondering if the guy who bought the drum sticks had a drum to play them on??? This salesman was good, but not that good. He should have sold him a "famous" drum as well. Lol.
Have a great night. M

lol. Well, he was the ultimate salesperson! And the other guy - well if you are ready to believe anything and everything you will doubtless be taken for a ride! Well told. Very humorous.

Delightful story John. Some people can sell ice cubes to Eskimos. ( smiling). I have never been in that category - I end up give "stuff" away.
I enjoyed reading your clever story.

Blessings

Lol. I am guessing this is story that should be labeled "Buyer Beware". Now I'm wondering if the guy bought himself a very expensive set of chopsticks.

This is very naughty on the part of the seller! Some people will believe anything! I love this because you have cleverly managed to incorporate much of your character into this flash: your love of rock music, your love of cooking and your love of humour. It's a mini autobiography in fact in your dreams! And why no entry into a contest? Wonderful! Debbie

This reminds me of an interesting result one of my friends discovered when he was looking in a Sotheby's catalog. He recognized a guitar he had used when he was doing drama at his high school. To make it more a lifelike for the play he put Elvis Presley's signature on it.

He remembered the time the fellow came and bought it at a yard sale for probably$ 10 or and now it was worth hundreds and hundreds of dollars. He got in touch with Sotheby's and notified them of the misnomer.

HMMM, I am wondering about this one. Some people will buy anything if somebody tells them what they want to hear. I enjoyed reading and had to smile. Thank you for sharing.
