Subject: Cursed Coronet- Please let this albatross be gone!

Yes, Yes, Yes... the coronet for auction on e-bay is the one that I
commissioned from Rolaine SEVEN years ago, yet have never seen.
Nothing but bad luck has been involved in everything it has touched
in these seven years. It is cursed, an albatross around my neck, and
I want nothing whatsoever to do with the blasted thing.

One year ago it was shipped by Rolaine in the mail, uninsured and
with no return address. It did not get to me and thus became the
legal property of the US Postal Service. The coronet was sold at
auction to someone in the business of reselling legally claimed lost
goods. It belongs to him now and he HAS the legal right to sell it.

Please be assured that if for ANY reason it should return to my
possession, I intend to immediately dispose of the wretched thing in
the nearest garbage recepticle, where I feel it belongs.

Thank you all, sincerely, for your good wishes on my behalf. That
said, please respect my wishes... I do not want this cursed object in
my life. Let it be gone, and please let this issue drop!(end
