I watched the video and did a bit of googling. Should have replied to the post but wrote about in my blog (not that anyone reads it) and on FB.
A few people I spoke to about it reckoned that her work was going to end up being massively exploited by the guy that bought it all.
I can see their point but imo it's going to take a bit of exploitation to get her name known and if they guy that's bought it all ends up making a fortune from the stuff then fair enough, he took a gamble and bought some boxes and their contents has ended up being worthwhile, it could just as easily have all been utter rubbish. Noone's been ripped off.
I suppose if she has any family it'd be nice for them to benefit but from what was said in the video and on a few sites I looked at, it's not as if she had a massive family that have been easy to trace.
