I hear you, I'd much rather regret buying something than regret not buying it. I did win some 17 pr ammo boxes from the Bellars sale, the shipping on those was eye watering.... Made worse by the fact that somebody had stolen the lids, presumably at the sale venue. They were present in the photos and missing when I got them.

I was so fixated on 25 pdr stuff that I did not notice the little stowage box for the 6 pdr shield until after the auction was over. That was another item that I would have happily paid too much for.

As to pilfering from the lots, I pretty much got whatever items were in my lots, and some of it I gave to.the mlu member who picked up and shipped my stuff. But I heard from others that they were missing items from larger pieces that they had purchased, and that there was little satisfaction to be had from the auctioneers..

I make the shield boxes if you get stuck.

This was a repair of an original but I also make them from scratch.
