Tiercel 6,986 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Basically, you could buy a purse net off him for x amount and he could give you the mount for free and you would not be breaking the law. However, without the article10 he cannot sell it to you. TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
big napper 3,559 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 yes so to sell it you need paperwork, but to own one you don't, is that it, cheers mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waz 4,210 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Bought 1 of off ebay, possibly 13 - 14 year ago, picked it up from his house in Wembley, asked the bloke to write me a note/receipt as to the origin etc more to do with me keeping terriers. He bought it from an auction at a clay club (Broomhills I think). Just searched 'badger' on ebay, some masks, skulls etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
