Repaint. And the bill is not correct. I am
Sorry. Send the photos to Gary guyette. Was it a decoy dealer that sold it to you?
 
Yes. Who seemed to know his stuff in our other dealings

I'll send the pics as you suggest and see what comes of it

Thank you for the heads up
 
I am sorry. And good luck.

Absolutely nothing for you to be sorry about

I'd have not known for weeks until a serious collector friend gets back and that may well have been too late

We'll find out if he's a wheeler dealer or an honest dealer
 
Who's the dealer ?
By informing the group, others won't deal with this individual and make the same mistake that you made.
He/she should stand behind the sale and take the bird back if it was misrepresented. Horror stories like this kills the hobby. It's a shame and it's blatantly dishonest.

I agree! The lynch mob mentality is unfortunately the way social media has gone. Let the person fix his mistake. And not hang him
In a court of public opinion. Good luck.
 
It is the classy thing to do. From what I see (especially the head and bill) the decoy is not correct, but I'm no expert. G&D should give you the proper info, as would Russ Goldberger of RJGAntiques, or Al Haid.

Mason decoys may well be the Salvador Dali "original paintings" of the decoy world...
