"To Whom It May Con...Here's the one I got:<br />"To Whom It May Concern:<br />Could you please confirm i can place an order with you for few artworks, i am located in Northern Ireland and i know the difficulties encountered shipping internationally. I have a reliable courier company am registered with, they pick up and deliver anywhere in the world, they handle pick up and delivery arrangement so shipment shouldn't be an issue. I can email the artwork as i don't place order on websites and payment will be completed in full once you confirm my purchase order with a quotation.<br />Kindly let me know when you are in office and ready to take my artwork purchase order.<br />Sincerely yours,<br />Mrs Shapleigh"Susan Finsennoreply@blogger.com
