While I feel for the OntMuseum - the judge had it right - sometimes the words that are missing in a description are as important as the ones that are there....like "original" "WWII battlefield relic" etc.: had those words been used rather than the 'puffery' words ('museum quality,' 'appears to be,' 'great condition,') all would be well with that purchase.
Had there been a single communication where Krause said this is an original vehicle in answer to a question of the same content - Krause would have lost the suit! IF the seller had said 'I don't know' or 'as is' than that must be taken to mean the WORST CASE - not original This case is the same as the one where someone recently purchase Patton's WC57 Dodge Command Car - not! No good provenance and lots of innuendo that it was ever Patton's; more likely he ever even road in it or that it was on the same continent as Patton!!!! |

Instead of barking and snapping at Allan Duffy who has singlehandedly turned the Ontario Tank Museum into a World Class display of vehicles and equipment the same people keep taking shots. It was a solid try at introducing foreign vehicles into the herd. If they can't be used for what they are, they would make great background for a diorama. And based on past price performance if they hold on to them for five years regardless of their history they could sell them for 30% more than they paid. AND you can thank Allan Duffy alone for a far sighted vision of what that Museum should look like. That new building is a blessing for anyone who works and toils there. Cheers for Mr. Duffy. And his visions.
My uncle served in the Ontario Tank through WW2. When I asked an ex vet in the Regiment how he did (waiting to hear he was a good soldier) the reply was....he was the best dancer we ever had. Peter Simundson Last edited by peter simundson; 22-09-20 at 17:49. |
