Heres the BBC iplayer LINK to when the vase is being picked up, the BX is seen a few sec's after :wink:

If you don't want to watch it all the way thro' heres the link to when James Lewis opens up the case which shows THE PROFIT he's made and if you leave the iplayer to run you can see the deal being struck where he made the £3612 profit on the £38 vase !

I wonder if the poor BX owner watched this tonight, he could have put the money towards a new car !

:lol:

Being in 'the foreign' I can't actually watch this - Aunty Beeb say No! The seller might be a little gutted but - according to what I just read - the profit goes to charity so that'll soften the blow.

Yes, good to see you back with us Ken.
