To complete this transaction, please email me your full name and address so I can get your package ready to ship. Payment will be done by cash money transfer through Western Union . This is the only and the best way for each of us to let the transaction happen and that is because other ways take too much time. Western union is a very simple service, all you have to do is fill a form with my name and address and your name and address and pay in cash, from this service you will receive a number called mtcn which will help me to check the funds online. Western union offices are allmost in every bank or postoffice. I will ship you the package immediately after I have the payment confirmation from you.

Regards, John ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, Ok, We will make a business for 3000 USD( this is the only price to pay, there will be no import duties). To complete this transaction, please email me your full name and address so I can get your package ready to ship. Payment will be done by cash money transfer through Western Union .

Hope you will agree to the terms and we will complete the transaction successfully . Let me know. Respectfully, John ---------------------------------------------------- Hello, The quad was purchased from a specialised dealer here for a low price. It was a bankrupt store. It is brand new and in perfect condition. I understand you are concerned and must agree with you, but honestly it is not the case. I am a serious ebayer, with great reputation here - I had no problems till now and my feedback shows this very clear. My intentions are to make my sales here on ebay permanent and start a business, so any problem/negative feedback won't do me too good. You have my personal guarantee that you'll receive the unit as soon as I have a payment confirmaton - no later that 4-5 days (as long as the shippment takes). And you will also have a 5 days money back warranty, no questions asked - this means that if within 5 days you change your mind you simply sent back the unit and get your full paid amount back. I am 46 years old, I am in the sales bussines for over 25 years and I never fooled someone in any way.If you feel uncomfortable in any way with this transaction don't do it. Your worries get me worried too, and give me a bitter taste about this internet kind of bussines. So if you are uncertain don't do it, i am sure there will be other deals in the future for you. So stay cool; if you're really interested, lets close this deal asap. Respectfully, John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninjamaster Posted December 2, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2003 I got this from him. I told him I have realitives in his country and he wrote this back Hello, Ok, I agree to meet your relatives here. Please send the money to them so I can check it only. I will meet them but i have one request from you. You will send the money to one of your relatives here with western union so I can check it online. The money will remain there until the package is sent. I will meet your relatives, inspect the package and if everything is ok I will ship in the same and after that collect the funds from western union with your friend here. If this is acceptable with you we have a deal. Regards, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
