Buying SS cufftitles

[TonyS]

"what one man calls poison, others call pleasure"

I guess it's that for me.

Some of the rare SS stuff just looks so ridiculous I would never want to own it. No offense intended to any collectors who do want to own it

Overall, I assume in anything SS, earlier period quality brings a higher price but also easier to sell at some point should you decide to do so.

But I echo all who said ask about specific examples by first asking the knowledgeable people here rather than placing all trust in a dealer's "Certificate of Authenticity" and parting with hard earned money. Some dealers have so much fine print in their guarantee they may as well say "I have your money so you're screwed."
