Help needed, family item sold

[lathan001 10]

Hi

 

I'm in need of some advice and direction. This week I recently found out that my great grandfathers anglo boer war medal was sold on BidorBuy last year sometime.

 

Through some investigation, none of the family members recall who had it or possibly sold it, however my grandmother who is now 94 only has a photo of her father and a letter of his efforts in the Boer war as far as his possessions go.

 

I have the seller and buyer names from the site but obviously no contact details.

 

I would like to contact both to hopefully arrange to purchase back the medal from the buyer and find out from the seller where he acquired it from.

 

I'm not sure if this is at all possible or acceptable within the community but as it is possibly one of the only items of my great grandfather still around I would like to atleast make the effort to try.

 

Any guidance or help in reaching the seller or buyer details would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

You might try searching (advanced search) the seller and or buyer to see if they are active sellers on bidorbuy. If they are active sellers you can send a "Q & A" Message and hope they respond. You can also try to PM (private message) if they have a profile on the forum. Good Luck
