My last auction buy from the EU -- took over 6 months for the EU cultural commission to license export of an NGC Ancient graded Julius Caesar wreathed head Dictator in Perpituity.
I won't stray from HA again, 180 miles down the road from me!

UPS messed up the first shipment due to customs papers and they had to be reissued, another 6 month wait.

    A miracle and it must have been a painful ordeal. "Hope deferred maketh the heart sick but when it comes it is a tree of life".
