Dear David,
    These are definitely rules to collect by!
Joey


Hello Inn Bok,

After a night's sleep, I just realized that you also taught/reinforce to me a couple more lessons.

1) Must check all sides/angle when looking at a bottle in detail, and add an additional 3 second glance for each side.

2) Need to be very suspicious when there are too many combination of styles and/or elements.

3) Never buy a bottle that have no trustworthy provenance (or advice) without handling it.

Thank you, this will help me a lot in the future.

Grateful Regards,
David
