Not casting shadows here but You Cant seriously buy an item from a dealer with Blind Faith...Thats just not good collecting.

Always check items out first hand..always make suer the dealer knows the PARTICULAR Subject he is talking about because some dealers no more about certain things than others.

I have seen Quite a few VERY Questionable items in MOST Books..that does not make them true and Quite a few Stories that are made up to fit the Situation needed.
