That’s funny that you mentioned, Germany. I know a guy that loves grandfather clocks. He went to an auction & there was a grandfather clock that was stored in an attic & was in pieces. He decided that maybe all the pieces weren’t there, it sold for $75. all the pieces were there & it got rebuilt & resold for $150,000. Oh yea it was foreign wood that he never heard of. It was a big OUCH on my friend!
