This person is a fraud. He buys artist work when it is cheap and studies it. Then when the artist has good sales or gets popular, he post the artist work on Ebay next to the knock-offs he has made. This is nothing new, but this person does it to living artist who are just trying to get by selling their work on Ebay. This person has many new I.D.s on Ebay and Youtube. If you try and confront him he will cry like a baby get on Youtube and harass you.

He will contact galleries you are in if he sees you mention them on the net.He will act like he is someone else and harass everyone you mention. He will also befriend your friends on the net and try and turn everyone against you. He has been doing this to the artist Steven Chandler ever since he bought his work and did this in 2006. Chalmers has even contacted his child on the net saying horrible things about her Dad. He does not stop even when confronted over the phone.This person is extremely sick. Beware of Richard Chalmers-East Dorset Vermont.
