Hi all my first possible sale here. I would like to reply ASAP to the person could you please advise whether I should just settle for a copy of the publication Thanks!

Dear Sir,

I write regarding your image # 848753. I would like to use this in a limited edition book that is due to be published in October, in Dubai. This will have a print run of around 2,000 copies.

Would it be possible to get a digital copy of this? I require it as large as possible at 300dpi.

I will of course send you a copy of the book on publication and also ensure that proper photograph credits are included.

Yours sincerely,

Elie Moukarzel

I had the same message, but thought it was a little dubious that it came from a hotmail email address that had some ID validation problems.

I've asked for more information about the publisher etc as this is usually provided. The book would be great, but I too have suggested that fees are to be discussed.

Nothing heard in reply yet.

It seems he doesn't reply when €€€'s or $$$'s get involved. I didn't mention that from the beginning and he replies very quickly, and now he wants to use 3 pictures of me, let's see how fast he replies when I talk about the money Wink

Quoting QantasA332 (Reply 10):
See my last reply in this thread. What do you guys think?

I also received a reply and the same request to send to 2 different email addresses. Prior to agreeing anything I asked for more information about the publisher and it was provided. http://www.mediaprima.ae

The thing I'm not happy is that they plan to pay by cheque which has high costs associated in clearance if it's an oversees cheque. Seeing as they appear to have a UK base I've asked for a UK account transfer or cheque but have had no reply. I'm holding back on providing the photo until I hear.

With regard to a contract, clearly write your terms of use and the price to be charged. The add something like, "By accepting this photo for use in your publication you are agreeing to the above terms of use and payment"
