Art on the High Seas
You are a wise and prudent person who would never be taken in by smooth talking, butter wouldn’t melt in their mouth, confidence men. Don’t be so sure about that. Many very intelligent people have felt the same way, only to discover that they have been duped and in a very embarrassing way.
In the first in a series of investigative article’s, Art on the High Seas, by Anayat Durrani, your eyes will be opened to a new definition of piracy. Piracy in the form of Art Auctions and their slick auctioneers who wine and dine their victims, verbally promise the investment of a lifetime and after your mind is fuzzy from all of the champagne, you find yourself bidding on art that is questionable at best.
Anayat cites experiences by individuals who were taken in by Park West, the company running the auction. Thousands of dollars were paid for works that were found to be worth only a fraction of the price. Worse yet, they had no recourse with either the owners of Park West or the Cruise Line that offered and even promoted this distorted form of robbery on the high seas.
In this well written article, you will be educated to the fact that the seemingly festive air of the ocean cruise and its art auction, hide a sinister secret that is fast being exposed as more and more victims come forward. If you are planning a cruise or know of someone who is about to embark on one, be sure to read this very revealing article and keep up with this ongoing investigation. http://www.fineartregistry.com/ will be sure to keep you informed.
