I checked my statcounter and it shows that the person viewing this photo at that time was located in Brazil.

I don't think the person is an idiot, and I would love to help them pay for the photo.

What would you do? I posted a comment in response in hope that they might come back and see it.

    If someone really wants to buy, I'm sure they'll figure out how to email you. Even boneheads like me can usually figure out email... :D

    If I saw something I liked but thought it was a little too expensive I'd at least attempt to get in touch to see if I could work something out. Was it a troll? Could be. Either way don't loose any sleep over it.

    Hi Doc,

    I see you already have the approval turned to on. There is unfortunately not much we can do about it otherwise. I'm sorry I wish I had a better answer for you. Personally, I would just delete this message.

    Thanks,

    Yes, I turned approval required on when it first came to my attention months ago. I have not approved the message and was waiting to delete it. I just thought it odd that someone would leave a message like that. It was probably a test to see if the post would make it to the page without approval. If found to not require approval it probably would have been flooded with male enhancement drug offers.

    Did I mention that I hate spam...
