Dear Geoff,
    We ALL know that feeling. But oddly, I don't think I have ever regretted a purchase as much as I regretted losing a bottle I wanted badly.
Good luck,
Best,
Shabbat Shalom,
Joey

Not expecting to be able to afford anything - but you never know - the addiction can overwhelm the purse.

You are right Joey - the only thing I ever regret is what I didn't buy.

Geoff,

I just saw your posts on the IPB. Regarding the third picture which was signed by ' Qing Ren ' ( 秦人 ) dated 2013 ( 癸巳 ), I wonder if Peter can varify if this could be one from the Province of Shaanxi ( 陕西), a student of Tie Shan ( 铁山 ) ? A person from Shaanxi may sometimes call himself a Qing Ren ( The territorial base of the ancient Qin ( 秦 )Dynasty is the present day Shaanxi Province )。 Just a thought.

Dear Tom,
    Why? It still doesn't mean that I will buy every bottle I see, at any price.
It just means that occasionally, I have regrets.
I'm confused... though not for the first time; and I'm sure, not for the last either.
Best,
 Joey
