I got all happy n'shit late last night, and was gonna post this.. now I thought better do it:
This revolves around getting an email response to your published ad, about if you would be willing to ship your stuff to the guy out of the country!
Well, I didn't think to traceroute his IP to see where the fuck Guy's at.. but figured his edumacated English in the email would put him somewhere in Europe.
Hey! I'll chase a buck to the end of the earth, just so's I know a buck is THERE man! I sell junk on eBay all the time, you know - so this request was no strange thing to me.
So I give him the usual: What I want, and how I want it. Simple easy basic stuff like terms of sale, same as Ebay:
- If your shit gets broken in shipping, don't step on my neck to get your refund check, cuz I probably wont' have it for 6-8 weeks myself. Even then, I gotta cash it.
- Allow a few days for packing, and about $6 USD to do it too, cuz it's going International and I don't what goes on in them little rickshaws they cart crap around in your neck of the woods..
- Pay me in something I can use: Paypal (you eat the fees, not me so it'll be 3% extra), Postal Money Order or Western Union Billpay. Or US Dollars cash. If sending cash, you better conceal it, and insure it's delivery! Bank of Shinobu Prefecture, Hokkaido Japan AIN'T gonna do it for me. Or my Bank.
