I am sorry but in order to do this deal I will need paid (In person) before I take the system apart for your shipping company. I am unsure what good a mechanic would do for a fish tank. As I stated once you come look at it and pay for (if you want it) I will take it apart to be moved or shipped as you say. As far as shipping costs your company should be able to use this zip code 85395

I just want to inform you that i have just completed the payment and i hope you must have been notified in your email about the payment i made through PayPal, you can check your e-mail for confirmation of payment, I have just make the payment of $1,600,i have decided to add the amount of $650 which i paid through paypal, So please i will like you to help me wire the sum of $550 to my agent via western union so he can be able to schedule time for the pick up and also paypal said they won't release the funds until they get the western union information from you due to the fact that i emailed them about the excess payment i made.i will need you to send the $550 to my pick up agent Headquarters where they normally confirm any commission payment to via western union money transfer(this can be done from the post office,or online at http://www.westernunion.com) as they usually have a western union agent there) , i added extra $100 to cover the western union charges, Here is my pick up agent Headquarter info needed to get the money sent through western union money transfer

SIMMONS SYLVIA
Smith Arm: 652 C

Please kindly email the necessary details to paypal :the mtcn which you will be given at the western union after the $550 has been sent as well as the sender's name and address used to send the money through western union,so i can forward it to paypal or better still you can email it to paypal directly.

Hi,
Am okay with the price & condition, my mode of payment will be via a Bank Certified Check, i will handle the shipment via my private shipping company, they will come for the pickup when the check clears your bank, the check will be send via FedEx which will deliver to you in 1-2 days in which i will need your full name and address also with your phone number to mail out the check to you,if this is okay by you, you can proceed to delete the advert on Craigslist because i don't want any other interruption by another buyer.
