Not me neither, though I do buy them and sell them occassionally. I always sell originals, but be careful, as there are some copies around. As I have been on ebay a while I can usually spot the cowboys, so if you are unsure, send me a message and I will check it out for you. User name Pew53 is definately genuine (not me)

I did but it was for a book - the Virgin Blue by Tracy Chevalier, so I don't think I'm the one you're looking for! Lisa
