DO YOU STILL AVAILABLE 4 SALE?


I didn't think much of it, I live near lots of stupid people, so I replied that I still have it.

Hello
My assistant told me that you still have the item 4 sale,I will pay your asking price. I will likely make payment by check or money order as its the only way I can pay you at the moment (I am actually out of the States on a business trip). I will make arrangement for pick-up after payment has been received by you. I dont mind adding a little extra thirty ($30) dollars so you can keep it in my favor.you should get your payment in 4-6 working days, Please keep it in my favor.
Kindly reply with your full name,cell phone number,and address where payment should be sent,i will appreciate if you can get the ad off craigslist so i can be sure you are keeping it in my favor .Awaiting your reply. Best regards


I'm only trying to sell an autographed jersey. No one doing business overseas is going to go apes**t trying to reserve it.
