Re: head in the sand
Ha Ha Jim lad me bucko,made to deceive the innocent. mind the black spot Ha Ha.
Re: head in the sand
yes i know all about the deceive .i just cant work out the logic why risk adding to something if its original, Does a tag realy make that much Differnence to a ss cap or tunic . if they are original to start with .
just wondering thats all there may be no reasoning to why
Re: head in the sand
To answer your question more directly-Yes, the presence of a tag or mark does, indeed, increase the marketability of any specific item and hence it's value/sale price itself as well. People will usually gravitate to an item if it is profusely marked, tagged and stamped, with the mindset that it makes it more easily acceptable to others who may otherwise be more skeptical of it in the collecting community.
