Hi..
Thanks very much for your response. I love to buy one lovely female puppy from the puppies you have for sale ...please kindly reserve one puppy for me for my child birthday,i want you to understand that its because am hearing impaired that why i am texting you hope you will understand me . I am sending you this email to make final reconfirmation of the puppy which am
willing to buy the puppy for my son as his Birthday present and I also want to let you know that payment will be by Money Order. However, I want to alert you on the fact that you will be receiving the Money Order this week or next week and payment will cover your cost and as well as the shipping cost to be paid to the shipping agent that will take care of the pickup in your house. So please as soon as you receive the payment, get it cashed immediately, deduct your own fund that accrues to you and send the remaining balance to the Head Office of the company that handles the shipment via Western union. more so, I will pay you an extra $55 if you can reserve this for me. So in view of the above, Here are some of the details I will need for final issuance of the Money Order to you.
(1) Full Name
(2) Mailing address, no p.o.box please
(3) your direct telephone number both home and cell.?
{4} Acceptance of my offer
(5} Final asking price
Once you get back to me with all the above information, the Money Order will be issued out immediately and it will be sent to you.
Regards,
Lopex.
