Dear Diasai

I try to find the best copy of horn figurines like that European Collections you dream of, but til now I can not find the beautiful pieces like that. There are many fake horned figurines made of true jade but the quality will not match your standard.

I tried to take pictures from those kind of shops. If I do not buy anything first, they even pushed me and pulled my mobile phone away, then asked to delete pictures from my mobile phone memmory. In HK, if the shops owner do not allow you to take pictures, it can be a criminal case..

There are plenty of nephrite HS pieces in HK and Shenzhen. I know that the only one source you get fake HS jades is only from eBay..don't you think that eBay sellers from Mainland China are tired to pay eBay fee with nobody buy or even care to look at their products?

Truly authentic archaic jades are not cheap like that, and the Mainland Chineses are not that dumb to sell you few dollars, since they can trade one small authentic HS bead with 20" color television set.

As for your Neolithic expatise, you just don't know Prof.Guo Dashun who spend his whole life in Nui's excavation and the one who declared Anderson's collecttion is a "fake"?

Have fun
