Hi there,

During the last exhibition campaign /competition, I'm just wondering
if your gallery would be able to ship to my Country In Europe?And
shipping costs shouldn't be prohibitive for sending paintings
overseas
Kindly get back to me with your online portfolio for more information
about your available works and price guide list.

Yours sincerely.

Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
Same as posted above....
Initial inquiry worded similarly. I emailed back "Seriously?" , thinking it was a scam and got the following: I want you to get back to me with the cost of the above pieces only if they are still available in your gallery or possession then we can figure out about shipping and insurance cost I will be waiting, so that you can have my credit card number to run for the payment and can you give me a discount if I purchase the pieces?
All the best

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.

Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
