My gf nor I have ever mentioned anything about you selling a statue to anyone at all.
I said “I heard David accidentally sold a painting to someone for cheap that was worth thousands. He needs to get one of the “experts” like on Pawn Stars.” as a joke. That is a direct quote, and note how a statue, pricing, or anything else was not mentioned. It’s amazing how quick things get left out, added in, and misconstrued through word of mouth.
