Surely the onus on them in a market infested with looted items and fakes () is to determine which dealers' hands they did pass through and if that is impossible, walk away from a potentially dodgy deal, no?
This really is not rocket science, if you want a surgeon to operate on your kid's tonsils, you go to one who's got the papers, and not check which illegally-operating pseudosurgeons are in police records. No?
