This is what he send me after he decided to got my Bike.
Apologies!There seems to be a little problem but i have come up with a lasting solution that will help the purchase go smoothly.. i must compel to u that i am confronting a difficulty with the pick up of the item.. i just got an email from my agent that he won't come and pick up the item unless i pay him the agent commission fee first in order to be able to schedule a pick up time for the item,my pick up agent head quarters is in the China and all payments made for pick up from anywhere in the world is sent to their headquarters in the China and the only form of payments they accept is western union money transfer and i tried to pay online but i will need a credit card which i didn't bring on Camp Out, and there is no post office or any western union agent on Camp! so i have to ask you to help me with the pick up fees,I will include the $950 they charged to pick up and take it to my Cousin (1st class treatment), to the payments i will send through paypal, after i have made the payments, i will need you to help me send the $950 to my pick up agent through western union money transfer, the western union money transfer can be made at a post office near to you,there is always a western union agent in most post offices.I will be making the payments shortly and will email you as soon as it has been done.kindly get back to me as soon as u get a confirmation from paypal about ur paypal accreditation...
