Amazing! I was contacted by a man called Mark Spin Company name Godon Mark Inc email: mark.spin@gmail.com. They ordered a large order of Fairy Lights from me value of AU$5217.86. They paid by credit card and the payment went though fine. He included the following details for shipping in an email to me:<br /><br />Shipping Address: <br />Adddress: Gordon Mark Inc, Václavkova 169/1, Praha 6<br />Czech Republic<br /><br />Concerning the shipment, the likes of UPS, DHL and others always don't take care of the charges down here. Charges like handling, customs and duties etc. We have experienced such situation before and we don't want to experience such a thing again. We will be glad if you contact this shipper Air Shell Freight for the shipping quote. Here is there email address( AIR.SHELL@AOL.COM ), Note that we can't deal with the shipper but they always deal with the company where they will be doing the pick up in other to reduce the customs duties and other charges down here in Czech Republic. By indicating in the paper works that the payment was received by the shipper from the point of purchase, it will reduce the charges and if we(owner of the goods) wanted to pay for the custom duties and other charges, at times it is more than the whole package amount. We do trust ASF and if we didn't wouldn't have ask you to contact them in the first place. They are very reliable and fast. They will take care of everything including handling, customs and duties,Tax, insurance etc. . Always send us the copy of email you send to them.<br /><br />I contacted them and they replied with a freight charge and then also to pay ONLY by Western Union and that I must pay the charges, not them. I refused to pay the charges and advised them that they could pay directly and he was very upset that I do not trust the freight company and that he used them for 10 years!<br /><br />I am worried now for my money and all of the stock we have spent hours making for this order, it is terrible!!<br /><br />Anyone had the same trouble from this company???

My son learnt to swim in this pool during school holidays. There were regular supervised explosively fun swimming sessions in the summer and plenty of warm drying sessions on the 'Baking Stones' outside Lesley Cooper's science Lab. What a waste!

It is of a landscape of trees which are reflected in water. It was framed in a beautiful gold frame. It is a beautiful paiting and I am wondering if you could possibly have been the artist.
