in private discussion i was recently having about the hobby, a fellow forum member sent me this quote and i think it perfectly fits the auction house/authentication side of the hobby..to a T:

After a while, it got to be all normal.
None of it seemed like crimes.
Henry was just enterprising.
He and the guys make bucks hustling while other guys...sat on their asses waiting for handouts.
Our husbands weren't brain surgeons, just blue-collar guys...
The only way they could make real money was to go out and cut corners.

Goodfellas...

any other good movie quotes applicable to this hobby?
