How To Beat The Mark-Down Scam

If you find a piece of art you love in one of these

galleries and it's an obvious victim of the markdown scam,

have the courage to take down the information on the piece,

go back home, and look this artist and this piece up on the

internet. See what other galleries are selling it for. I can

guarantee after only 20 minutes of research and

calling four or five galleries you will have established

the fair market value for this piece. And you can be

well assured even with the "50% discount" you will

find the true value to be even less. Being an educated

consumer means you will be able to find your artwork at its

true value and acquire it while having saved your self money

and mockery.
