    Default Unnecessary attack over art

    I am new on bob, and posted three claerhouts, and 1 ampenberger, all authenticated by 1 artist and 1 well known gallery, but I'm being attacked by people on bob, and I don't understand why. Why is Artfundi attacking me on bob and saying im sellilng fraudulent art pieces?! Im taking it personally and legally binding, expect community watch to follow up with immediate effect.

    Good day

    Due to the controversial nature of this issue, we would advise you to have the art works authenticated by a reputable expert in Claerhout. Unfortunately we cannot stop buyers from asking relevant questions regarding the art works being sold.

    Any abusive comments or attacks via the Q&A can be investigated, but if someone asks if the item is authentic, we would strongly urge you to respond in a factual, professional manner. Please note, once you answer a Q&A question, it will become public. Buyers who complain that the art work purchased is fake will have to present proof of this from a reputable art expert.

    Kind regards

    I am sure the person you took it to was happy it is an original, but why so defensive? You were merely asked who authenticated it and you gave several answers to one question. As far as I could see no-one launched an attack on you.
    I also find it odd that the buyer of your painting also had to post a very defensive message on this thread.
    This post is purely my observation and is not intented to start any mud slinging.

    I think that, understandably, buyers are very twitchy at the moment about Claerhouts.
    Sellers, while they shouldn't tolerate abuse, must realise this and be able to handle the questioning of Claerhouts at this stage calmly and lucidly, because defensiveness is not going to reassure a buyer.
    I wouldn't want to be Claerhout seller at the moment - because I'm sure you guys are getting a lot of questions.

    I have just read the question from lilythepink and the various replies from the seller. I too cannot find any "attacks" as mentioned by the seller. I've only noted various updated answers and also find it very important to give straight, honest answers to your buyers.

    I also read the questions asked of both paintings. I too cannot see any "attacks" on Lizalee. Unless the questions was deleted by her.

    I have never noticed any attack sorry about the Claerhout art.Surely we do have the right to question where it is fake or not...

    Are you really new to BoB?

    I see you are selling the following item:

    Oils - original Elize Wessels - oil painting on blocked canvas for sale in Bloemfontein (ID:44799302)

    Which was bought by Paranovalty:

    Acrylics - EW349 Cape Landscape was sold for R300.00 on 22 May at 14:06 by Elise Wessels in Cape Town (ID:22094110)

    Please explain.

    Maybe Bob want to share with us why Lizalee's account has been disabled?
