Spotted this on eBay...

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156046943120?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=XEDOqzd0TRq&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=KZw3nEVkT8O&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Wanted to warn any prospective buyers, the seller is probably  what would be known as 'dodgy' 

Description states signed in person in 2016, we all know the 'Currency' were created then but not sold until years later. 

I looked into the seller as they have a business account on eBay which shows their address. A quick Google shows he narrowly avoided jail in 2020 for tax evasion on £400,000 of eBay sales. 

Looking back on completed listings seems he's made circa £25 k in the last 3 months selling original drawings by Keith Haring etc etc all with less than rock solid provenance. 



Caveat emptor.
