Ron,
Yolkins line of thought does make sense!
Let's say you bought a Kutuzov 3 from Alexei. By selling this piece he gives you a guarantee that the piece he sold is authentic and if you don't agree you can return it for a full refund! Why not put that on paper?
The guarantee is already there, so how can it be a conflict?
He guarantees the product he sold and backs it up with his certificate!
I don't think he should authenticae other peoples awards but he can if he wants do his own.
As fars as the dealer you are speaking about, If it's the "other "major" NY dealer" then I only wish you can read Russian! He got his butt handed to him on a major Russian forum! He tried advertising his auction catalog and majority of his high-end stuff was proclaimed to be fake!!!
I suggest not dealing with this person! He has burned one too many people and his name & reputation to many collectors is $#!#
Rusty.
