Bartevian — Attraction in Boston

Walked into this shop while strolling around. The lady running the shop started talking about her life which enticed me, she wrote a book about her life and told me I could pay as much as I want. I wanted 4 and she ended up charging me 80$, said it was 20$ to print each book. Which is a complete scam. If she had told me earlier, I would have still happily bought a book from her. But that fact that she told me I could pay as I wish and charged me 20$ is such a scam. Please be careful...

I visited this antique shop on July 31st this year and purchased the book "The Bartevians: A Boston family."

Thank you Pat for allowing me to share in your rich life...
