Re: [MOPO] CASABLANCA half sheet-no feedback ever posted
I had to look that up. Patina (pronounced /ˈpætənə/ or /pəˈtiːnə/) is a film on the surface of bronze or similar metals (produced by oxidation over a long period); a sheen on wooden furniture produced by age, wear, and polishing; or any such acquired change of a surface through age and exposure. On metal, patina is a coating of various chemical compounds such as oxides or carbonates formed on the surface during exposure to the elements (weathering). Patina also refers to accumulated changes in surface texture and colour that result from normal use of an object such as a coin or a piece of furniture over time. It could be the seller is referring to the tape stain residue on the left border that have a bronze-like "patina". Yes. That's it. pj --- On Fri, 10/23/09, Jeff Potokar wrote: From: Jeff Potokar Subject: Re: [MOPO] CASABLANCA half sheet-no feedback ever posted To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Date: Friday, October 23, 2009, 5:15 PM ah yes.. the half sheet with the wonderful "patina"... jeff On Oct 23, 2009, at 4:06 PM, Paul Gerrard wrote: On the subject of another possibly more genuine half sheet that was mentioned on MOPO previously, the $35 Notorious - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320430767855 - the seller received a negative for not going through with the sale.

Re: [MOPO] CASABLANCA half sheet-no feedback ever posted
Not that anyone is obliged to leave feedback, but yes, the feedback for this seller is quite odd. As I think Michael pointed out a couple of weeks ago, the seller hadn't received any for the other items he sold either. One new comment has been added since then tho (for a watch) - "unable to receive paypal payment, however returned money. item not received" Looks like his PayPal account could have been frozen. Since ebay keeps its actions secrets, we may never know whether that resulted from the sterling efforts of MOPO members to report the Casablanca auction, or from another dubious auction, or from a disgruntled buyer, or from some other misdemeanour involving PayPal, etc etc. Having said that, he's still registered on e bay, so hasn't been thrown off. On the subject of another possibly more genuine half sheet that was mentioned on MOPO previously, the $35 Notorious - _http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320430767855_ (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320430767855) - the seller received a negative for not going through with the sale.
