I was doing some searching for prices of wood carvings on ebay,To seeing if it would be feasable to sell some of my work. But the prices they are getting is so low how do they make a profit out of there carvings? "Gezz! I couldn't buy the timber for what there selling there carvings for?" :eek:

Probably made in a chinese jail and sold to a yank distributor.
