    Interesting, I got a scam email claiming to be from Amazon the other day. Claimed that "the billing information you provided did not match the information on file with the card issuer". Complete nonsense of course as their email address didn't even have the word "amazon" in it! :roflol:

      We have had those too Nick, also from eBay and paypal.
      thing is we don't deal with ebay and only the once with PayPal. early last year and it went through without a hitch.
      I ordered 2 books from a pre loved company one came Friday the other was coming separately.yesterday I had an email from Royal Mail they had a parcel at their sorting office for me with insufficient postage and if this was not paid it would be returned to sender.
      The delivery is free for my books so whatever it is a fault at their depo.
      I'm afraid I'm suspicious of everything out of the ordinary these days.

        Hi @Purple Streaks I've found this book
        P1500511.JPG

        1981 book, as good as new (almost never been opened), 250 pages, A4 size not hardback.

        Quote "Learn at the feet of the masters with this guide to drawing methodology. Jeffrey Camp reveals all the tricks of the trade in this comprehensive course in line, form, and colour."

        Don't know whether you're interested at £10 incl. postage (could possibly get it a lot cheaper on amazon but don't know what condition). All proceeds go to our local charity. Original 1981 price is £14.99.

        If you're interested we should move over to PM's (Conversations).

        We have lots of books by or about different artists. Mrs Shiney used to sell her own paintings. :blue thumb:
