Await your reply. This was fgollowed up with: I was just about to pay when i had this problem with the pick up, my pick up agent says i will need to pay for the pick up before they can schedule a pick up time, they charged me $2,500 for pick up and delivery, and payments for pick up made through them is made to their corporate international headquarters which is in vietnam and the payments are made through western union money transfer, i will add the $2,500 to the money i will send through paypal wire transfer to your bank account as soon as i have made the payments, i will email you and let you know and please i will need you to help me send the money to my pick up agent Hq in Vietnam through western union money transfer, this can be done at any western union outlet ,there is always western union money transfer section in most shops, i would have done it myself but we cant bring some of our personal effects along, i am a little incapacitated.....I will appreciate your help here,let me know if to continue with the payment.
