Bargain Hunt's antique expert Rajkumar 'Raj' Bisram has been labelled a "liability" by fans after a mishap.The 68 year old faced criticism when he convinced two BBC contestants to buy what they believed was a genuine Mouseman chopping board for £90 earlier this year.
At the time of purchase, Raj suggested that the wooden item could "get somewhere between £50 to £70" at auction, confessing his "thing for breadboard." However, when the seller proposed a "special price" of £130, the expert responded: "There would be no profit on that. "It's a nice thing but I would go to £100, but I can't go any lower than that, so we'll come back to it." In the end, the duo returned to purchase what they thought was a Mouseman chopping board.
Later in the episode, Christina Trevanion consulted an auctioneer about the item.The 42 year old described the situation as "controversial".
In response, the valuer admitted: "This has been on my mind about what I can say about this.The mouse has definitely been stuck on", reports the Express.
