@eperales
And used!! 😜
@ceoln It is clearly a scam.
Here is the same seller as the one you posted trying to cell another van gogh painting:

However this painting is a famous painting on display at fifth avenue:
https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/436535
So clearly this is fraud.
@ceoln I should point out, its a rather poorly done fraud at that. A quick glance comparing the original and its clear no effort was made to create a convincing copy.
@freemo
That is part of my bafflement, yes!
Are there enough people out there who are both rich enough to have $50,000 (plus $75 shipping lol) and dumb enough to fall for this? To make this fraud worth doing?
I suppose the cost to the perpetrator is small ("only have to sell one!") especially if they assume that no state AG is going to get interested in a nice headline by prosecuting them...
@ceoln Fraud is usually a numbers game. Chances are they never once made a sale at that level but are hopeful. They probably engage in smaller scale fraud that does make money.
What I find odd is how they have 8K + people who are almost all good reviews.
@ceoln short reviews are common, so i expect some repeating. As a customer i may not bave even noticed honestly.
@ceoln fifty grand and no free shipping? This is clearly a scam.
