"Good to hear back from you. I'm okay with the price and the condition.
Presently, i am out of town for my vacation and i won't be able to come for
the inspection due to my location. Moreover, I would have loved
to call but am out of service for days now which
restricts calls.I have a pick up agent who will be coming for the pick up
after the transaction has been completed. I will be paying you through
PayPal as it is the only Medium at which i can send Payment at the Moment.
I would appreciate if you email me with more pictures (if available) too
since i won't be be able to see this in person. And if you don't have a
PayPal account, It's pretty easy to set up a PayPal account at
www.paypal.com. it's just a few minutes away from signing up. it's
safe and secure for both Parties and i have been using PayPal to buy
and sell for years
now without problems. Pls get back to me with your PayPal email so i
can proceed with the payment and contact the Pick up Agent who will
come for the Pick up of the item.
I will need these following details so i can proceed with the payment right
away
1:Your PayPal e-Mail Address
2: Home Address
As soon as you get back to me with your PayPal email, I'll proceed
with full Payment. I look forward to reading from you soon.
