Members DarkHorseJ27 Posted October 25, 2009 Members Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm trying to sell a Fender HRD on craigslist. I get an e-mail from someone asking if the ad is still active. I tell them yes, and I get this response: Glad to read from you. I'm really interested in your Item but i'mso sorry as i won't be able to come for a look as i'm the busy type.Well, i'll keep in touch with my financier to mail a check for theamount you're requesting and will have a shipping company to come forthe pick up as soon as you confirm to me that you receive the checkand it clears your bank. If this arrangement is acceptable, pls getback to me with your name as it will appear on the check and yourcontact address that the check will be mail to along with your cell #.Please write back as soon as possible so we can proceed. Does it sound funny to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
