In isolation, maybe? But this isn’t the only scam that’s slowly playing out. Oxford and Professor Obbink is slowly playing out. The illegal importing of Iraqi items and the fakes they had on display when they opened are other examples. At the time (2017) they claimed to be victims, had learned, were moving on etc. How long is the grace period? It’s sleazy at best.

That’s interesting. I’d never heard of this place before and wasn’t aware of their history. Thanks for sharing.
