I commissioned an art reproduction with Fabulous Masterpieces of my father's favourite painting for…read morehis 60th. To be honest their prices are quite a bit higher than other art reproduction companies but as I'm a Brit I wanted to buy from a UK company and the quality of their paintings did look really good so I thought I'd give them a try. All I can say is i'm thrilled I did. The painting was excellently copied, and it was so well received by my father. I would happily recommend Fabulous Masterpieces to all my friends and family and will definitely be using them again when I require more artwork. Fab Service!

Ah, so, you're looking for a beautiful Ukrainian woman for possible future marriage and are seeking…read morethe assistance of a Ukrainian dating, are you? Then, please read this carefully, as it might enlighten you a little on just who you think you're really corresponding with on an active chat room dating site: Like every dating site, it is always best to look at this with a very open (suspicious) mind. Always check the many posted reviews first before you sign up and become an active member of any dating site. It only makes good common sense. And always, I repeat, always do your homework first. But remember, it is wise to keep a continuous open mind regarding any positive-written reviews about MariyaClub.com, as they are more than likely written by the site administrators themselves, not by regular paying active members. Remember, anyone can write and post a review. Anyone. Even those who have a financial profitable stake in the site itself. (Meaning the staff members themselves.) The most disturbing factor about this MariyaClub.com dating site is, there are many posts on different sites all claiming fraud and deception about this particular dating site. I have reviewed this dating site so extensively and have found many posted reviews of men who were supposedly scammed, mainly as a result of losing so much money in writing many letters in continuous paid correspondence, thereby eventually taking the initiative and the trouble to fly all the way to Ukraine in the hopes of meeting the woman of their dreams, only to discover she didn't even bother to show up that the airport. Whether true or not, I don't know. I wasn't there, but from an impartial standpoint, let's look at it this way: the immediate concern which comes to mind is, why lie? After all, assuming many of the "victims" are in fact, really telling the truth about fraud and deception, what financial profit can be gained from someone posting a negative (and presumably honest) review regarding Mariyaclub.com being a total scam? The posted reviews on this dating site are all too easy to locate. The Internet is full of disappointed lonely men. One guy supposedly traveled to Ukraine to go meet the lady of his dreams whom he had been in correspondence with all these months, only to be informed by her, that she cannot meet him because she is "sick." He claims this not only actually happened to him once, but twice. What are the chances of that happening anywhere? Another site which warns about Mariyaclub.com, this guy claims he flew to Kiev, Ukraine to meet a girl, only to be told by her, that she couldn't meet him because she was supposedly sick in hospital. Then, while still in Ukraine, he says he contacted another girl whom he said he was in constant correspondence with, only to be told she too is "sick in hospital." Wow! What a wild coincidence. Yes, I would definitely think so. Yet, the poster went on to say even when he was told a meeting in person was impossible, due to a supposed unexpected "illness," he asked her to give him the name of the hospital where she was staying at, so that he could come and visit her in hospital, but she said she didn't know the name of the hospital. (Hmmm...) let's see, the Ukrainian woman is taken to hospital in the city where she lives, but she doesn't know the name of the hospital. So, you do the math here, as to whether you think these Ukrainian girls are really looking for love, or is it money? Don't believe everything you read. If you are an active member of Mariyaclub.com and are using the chat room, be warned. Not everything is what it seems. I have personally set up and caught so many women here by using certain techniques in posted messages which prove beyond any reasonable doubt that the person on the other side is not legitimate. Their chat room is operated by a minute-by-minute credits scheme using your credit card. Most of the women in this site's chat room have absolutely no knowledge you are sending them an instant message. You think you're talking to the girl live, but in reality it's someone at the site who sees you logged on and "baits" you with a message from one of the girls. How do I know this? Simple: after continuous questions, I was actually told by more than one of the ladies. Some will admit to you that it is not them who sends instant chat messages. It's someone else. Presumably one of the dating site administrators, perhaps an employee. Yes, that's right. You only think you are chatting to the woman of your dreams via live feed. But in reality, you are more than likely chatting to an translation employee of this dating site. Many times the ladies don't even know they' have even sent you a message in the chat room, that is, until you reply to one of the many chat messages you receive while registered to this dating site. The messages in the site's chat room are actually sent by someone working at the translation agency. Now, you have been warned. Please be careful.

I have communicated with and actually met 4 women who were members of Mariya Club. Three were in…read moreKharkiv and the other was in Kyiv. One was a doctor, another a nurse, another a dance teacher in a high school and the last a lawyer, I first communicated with them over MC, writing letters and chatting with them. They all seemed to be sincere and interested. Unfortunately, none of them spoke English and we communicated through interpreters when I came to Ukraine to met them. Since I don't speak Russian or Ukrainian, this made effective communication difficult or impossible. I was naive in thinking that it was possible to form a lasting relationship in such a short period of time with someone who spoke a different language. As a result, I didn't pursue them further. I have also been on other dating sites such as Anastasia Date and Elena's Models. MC is an international organization which contracts with local marriage or dating agencies. It seems that all the large dating sites have one thing in common--their primary goal is to make money. The women like to chat instead of writing letters. Chatting can be quite expensive, so I wrote letters even though the women didn't like it nearly as much. Actually, everyting is expensive with regard to these sites. As a general rule, men shouldn't try to form relationships with women more than 10 years younger than they are even if they say it is not a problem. The more young and attractive a woman is, the more likely she might try to take advantage of men, so be careful. Also, communication is very important in a marriage and learning English is quite difficult for Russian speaking people, so keep that in mind.
