Hi Alexei,

Well, when it comes to sharp eye and knowledge, I'd rely on you any day with my eyes closed (well, let's say I'll keep one half open :p ).

This one is a little difficult to explain, it is a general gut feeling from the first moment when you pick that piece. Something feels "not right", if you understand what I mean; can't really put it into words (I know, not a very scientific explanation, but that's the best I can do on this one :D ).

Marc :cool:

Marc,

I know exactly what you mean. I always trust my gut feeling. Sometimes you can't even put it into words, but you can just smell that something isn't right.

Alexei
