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.

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.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. 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.
