Caveat Empor Buyer Be-Aware. Only a minority of all antique shows are vetted, most are not. But that doesnt necessarily mean you wont be protected if you purchase an item from a show that doesnt offer vetting. It is important to check in any brochure for any announcement of vetting or for any written procedure. If you are sold an item that has be incorrectly described, organisers of antique fairs and shows do not benefit from any items being sold as something it is not. The management of a fair or show may have its ovn guide-lines on what to do if you have been misinformed about a piece you have purchased or about to.
