Howdy!
If you read this article from today's New York Times about the theft of a Degas Sculpture, you should remember, one of the first laws of selling art (or just about anything else) never give possession of the piece away before receiving the cash. Especially if the amount of credit (in dollars) exceeds the amount of time (in minutes) that you've known the buyer. And how what Tom Doyle's business card said is relevant to the story, I just don't understand.
